What makes a headline work
Clear beats clever. Say who it is for and what they get.
Example: 'The Ultimate Guide to Marketing' passes few checks. 'How to cut your ad cost per lead in 30 days' has a number, a clear promise and fits in Google's space.
These checks are rules of thumb, not a score from Google. A headline can pass every check and still lose to a better idea, so test with real readers when you can.

A number makes a promise concrete: a price, a count of steps or a time. Use one when it is true and useful, not just to have one.

They praise without saying anything. Readers skip them, and they can make a page look like an ad. A fact or a result works better.

No. These are simple writing checks. Google ranks pages on many things, and the content must deliver what the headline promises.
