7 Tips For Growth Hacking Traffic Monster Headlines

7 Tips For Growth Hacking Traffic Monster Headlines | Communicate...and how! | Scoop.it

According to Copyblogger, 80% of people never read past the headline of a web page. The headline is where you make your first impression on your reader and if 80% of readers never look any further, that headline is a failure.

 

And it gets worse. At least if someone is on your site, there's the chance that something else might attract their attention. But if they are reading a blah headline in an email newsletter or on a social media site, most people won't click and you won't get the traffic and attention you expect.

 

That doesn't have to be your story.

 

With the right tools and techniques you can create headlines that make people want to click, read and visit your site, bringing huge amounts of traffic your way. And those same headlines will make people want to share your content, increasing your audience even more....

Adding video to a landing page makes it 53% more likely to appear on the first page of Google results. (Source: AdWeek Social Times)

A thumbnail image of the video is presented on the search engine results page (SERP), which makes it stand out amongst the text-based listings and is therefore twice as likely to get clicked. What’s more, YouTube is the second largest search engine and the web’s third most trafficked site. 

Social success

People love sharing video on social media networks. And social networks are encouraging people to share video. Facebook has made a clear commitment to video adding auto-play, view counts, and more mobile functionality to its native video player. Twitter has a native app allowing you to record, edit and tweet videos under 30 seconds long. Vine is ALL videos.

Live streaming apps such as Blab and Periscope are rocking social media. The list goes on....

The Ideal Length for All Online Content

The Ideal Length for All Online Content | Communicate...and how! | Scoop.it

Every so often when I’m tweeting or emailing, I’ll think: Should I really be writing so much?

 

I tend to get carried away. And for the times that I do, it sure would be nice to know if all this extra typing is hurting or helping my cause. I want to stand out on social media, but I want to do it in the right way.

 

Curious, I dug around and found some answers for the ideal lengths of tweets and titles and everything in between. Many of these could have been answered with “it depends,” but where’s the fun in that?

 

Solid research exists to show the value of writing, tweeting, and posting at certain lengths. We can learn a lot from scientific social media guidelines like these. Here’s the best of what I found.

Interesting. I have to disagree with blog length - 1600 words (about a 7-minute read) might be good for SEO, but it's a long time to expect readers to stay with you. Respect their time and keep it short
