The prompts I use when I need a bold, clickable title in seconds
Titles used to kill me.
I could write an entire article in two hours, then lose another three just trying to name it. And still, the best I’d come up with would sound like a sad SEO keyword stuffed into a sentence.
That’s when I stopped pretending I had to do it all myself. I started throwing my rough ideas into ChatGPT. At first, it spat out headlines that sounded like a robot pitching a college essay. But with the right prompts, something shifted. Suddenly the suggestions felt alive. Not perfect, but close enough to spark something in me.
Here are the three prompts I keep coming back to. They save me when I’m stuck, and honestly, they make the whole title process way less painful.
1. The Curiosity Spark
Readers love mystery. Not fake mystery, but the kind that makes them think, wait… I need to know the rest of this.
Prompt:
“Write 10 article titles that create curiosity about [insert topic]. Keep them short and make me want to click without giving the full answer away.”
