People are looking for solutions to problems they have. If you promise to offer a solution in your title and follow up on that promise in your article, you will be well on your way to increasing your readership and writing effective titles.
Be sure to keep your titles short if possible. A good length is in the neighborhood of 7-9 words. In addition, capitalizing the first letter of each word is important.
