Thanks Robert. I have a query. I have my website with Yoast SEO installed. When I analyse headlines on my blog using SEO & when I analyse the same headlines on co schedule headline analyser I sometimes get different results. Which one should I go with?

That is a very good question without a good answer, I would need to know how each of these websites "score" the title. In general anything over 80% would be work trying. Link the websites and I will give you my honest opinion on them both.

Oh. sometimes I get over 80% in my website & the same title gets a lower than 60 with co schedule headline analyser. Do you mean any title on both that scores over 80 is worth trying? I will try linking the websites.

This is the one I use https://www.aminstitute.com/headline/ and have found that a score over 80% tends to do well.

Another thing, Robert R. I have come to equate " clickable " with " clickbait ". Is this an erroneous ill - timed assumption ? Not trying to be derogatory or a putz, just in need of clarification.

Clickable, I would suggest draws your reader in and you deliver the content that the title promised.

Clickbait never delivers on the title, for me it is that simple.

I hope that helps Daniel

This is very helpful but I don't want to sound like an Enquirer or Sun columnist. In my experience in Medium I often use a satirical, comedic / ironic style but I keep mellow. CBD, THC & a glass of KY or Canadian whisky help.

I understand Daniel, satire is not something I would write, but there is an audience for it.

I tend to write personal stories (just started fiction writing) writing tips and articles around love.

Satire is on it's own, nothing really compares to that topic.
