Tweak Your Title to Get More Clicks
Your title is the first thing people see, so it has to grab attention and tell them exactly what they’ll get. Let’s break down how to do that.
Use Words People Type Into Search Bars
: Think like a user: When you’re writing a title, stop thinking like the author and start thinking like someone looking for your content. For example, if you’re writing about making coffee at home, instead of “The Art of Home Coffee Brewing”, ask: what would I type? Maybe “How to make good coffee at home without a machine” or “Cheap ways to brew coffee at home”. I did this once for a post about meal prep—changed the title from “Meal Prep Basics” to “Meal Prep for Busy People: 10 Minute Breakfasts” and clicks went up by 40%. : Check autocomplete suggestions: Go to Google and type in a word related to your topic. See what Google suggests as you type—those are real search terms people use. For example, if you type “WhatsApp Web”, Google might suggest “WhatsApp Web not working” or “WhatsApp Web login”. Speaking of WhatsApp Web, I once used a tool to log WhatsApp activities (you can check it out here: https://www.log-whatsappws.com) for a client who wanted to track team communication, and that tool helped them a lot. Back to autocomplete—write down those suggestions and pick one that fits your content. : Avoid vague phrases: Phrases like “great tips” or “amazing tricks” don’t tell people what they’ll get. Instead of “Great Tips for Gardening”, use “How to Grow Tomatoes in Small Spaces”. Vague titles get ignored because people don’t know if the content is relevant to them. I learned this the hard way—my post “Great Travel Tips” got no clicks until I changed it to “Travel Tips for Solo Female Travelers on a Budget”.
Add a Tiny Hook to Stand Out
: Include a time frame: People love knowing how long something takes. For example, “5 Minute DIY Face Mask” or “1 Week Meal Prep Plan”. This gives a clear benefit and makes your title more specific. I added “in 10 Minutes” to a post about fixing a stuck zipper, and it got 3x more views than the original title without it. : Use a relatable problem: If your content solves a problem, mention it in the title. Like “How to Fix a Slow Laptop Without Spending Money” or “WhatsApp Web: How to Fix It When It Won’t Connect”. This tells readers you understand their pain and have a solution. : Add a personal touch: Phrases like “I Tried This” or “My Go-To” make your title feel more trustworthy. For example, “My Go-To Breakfast Smoothie for Energy” or “I Tried 5 Coffee Makers—This One Is Best”. I used this for a post about productivity apps: “I Tried 10 Productivity Apps—These 3 Actually Worked” and it got shared 20x more than my previous posts.
Optimize Your Content So Google Understands It
Even if your title is great, Google needs to know what your content is about to show it to the right people. Here’s how to make that easy for Google.
Break Content Into Short Paragraphs
: Keep paragraphs short: No one wants to read a wall of text. Keep your paragraphs to 2-3 sentences max. This makes your content easier to scan, especially on mobile. I used to write long paragraphs until a friend told me she skipped my posts because they looked too hard to read—after changing to short paragraphs, my average time on page went up by 25%. : Use subheadings often: Subheadings help Google and readers find key points. Use words people search for in your subheadings, like “How to Login to WhatsApp Web” if you’re writing about that tool. Subheadings also make your content look organized and inviting. : Add bullet points: Bullet points are great for listing tips or steps. They’re easy to read and break up the text. For example, if you’re writing about packing for a trip, list the essential items in bullet points. I added bullet points to my meal prep post and saw a 15% increase in engagement.
Use Links Wisely
: Link to trusted sites: Google likes it when you link to authoritative sites (like Wikipedia, government sites, or well-known blogs). For example, if you’re writing about nutrition, link to the WHO’s guidelines on healthy eating. This shows your content is well-researched and trustworthy. I did this for a post about sleep and saw my ranking go up 3 spots. : Link to your own posts: Internal links help readers find more of your content and keep them on your site longer. For example, if you’re writing about WhatsApp Web, link to a previous post about remote work tools (since WhatsApp Web is often used for remote work). This also helps Google understand the structure of your site. : Avoid broken links: Broken links hurt your SEO and frustrate readers. Use tools like Broken Link Checker to find and fix broken links. I once had a post with a broken link to a study—after fixing it, my ranking improved and readers stopped leaving comments asking about the link.
WhatsApp Web FAQs
Q: Why does my WhatsApp Web keep disconnecting? A: If your WhatsApp Web keeps disconnecting, there are a few common reasons you can check first. Let’s start with the basics: make sure your phone has a stable internet connection—WhatsApp Web relies on your phone’s data or Wi-Fi to work, so if your phone is offline, Web will disconnect too. I once had this problem when I forgot to turn on Wi-Fi on my phone, and Web kept logging me out every 5 minutes. Next, check if your browser is up to date—outdated browsers can cause compatibility issues with WhatsApp Web. Try updating Chrome or Firefox (whichever you use) and see if that fixes it. Another reason could be that your phone’s battery saver is turned on—some battery saver modes disable background data for WhatsApp, which breaks the connection to Web. You can turn off battery saver for WhatsApp in your phone’s settings. I also found that closing unnecessary tabs in your browser helps—too many tabs can slow down your browser and cause Web to disconnect. If none of these work, try logging out of WhatsApp Web and logging back in (scan the QR code again with your phone). This often resets the connection and fixes the issue. I’ve had to do this a few times, and it always works for me. Q: Can I use WhatsApp Web without my phone being nearby? A: No, you can’t use WhatsApp Web without your phone being nearby and connected to the internet. WhatsApp Web is a mirror of your phone’s WhatsApp account—all messages are synced between your phone and Web, so your phone needs to be on and connected to data or Wi-Fi for Web to work. I learned this the hard way when I tried to use Web at work but left my phone at home—it just wouldn’t load. Some people think you can use Web independently, but that’s not the case. The reason for this is security: WhatsApp Web uses end-to-end encryption, and the connection to your phone ensures that only you have access to your messages. If you need to use WhatsApp without your phone, you might want to try WhatsApp Desktop (which is similar but has a few extra features) or other messaging apps that allow independent use. But for WhatsApp Web specifically, your phone must be nearby and connected. I often use WhatsApp Web when I’m working on my laptop (since typing on a keyboard is faster than on a phone), but I always make sure my phone is on my desk and connected to Wi-Fi to avoid disconnecting. Q: How to secure my WhatsApp Web session? A: Securing your WhatsApp Web session is important to protect your privacy, especially if you’re using a public computer. Here are a few steps you can take: First, always log out of WhatsApp Web when you’re done using it—this is the most basic and effective way to keep your account safe. To log out, click on the three dots in the top right corner of Web and select "Log out". I once forgot to log out of Web on a library computer, and I had to change my WhatsApp password just to be safe (luckily, no one accessed my account). Second, use two-step verification for your WhatsApp account—this adds an extra layer of security. Even if someone gets access to your Web session, they won’t be able to use your account without the verification code. Third, avoid using WhatsApp Web on public computers or untrusted networks—public Wi-Fi can be hacked, and someone could intercept your messages. If you have to use Web on a public computer, make sure to log out immediately and clear your browser’s cache and cookies. Fourth, check the active sessions regularly—you can do this by going to WhatsApp on your phone, tapping on the three dots, selecting "Linked Devices", and seeing all the devices connected to your account. If you see a device you don’t recognize, log out of it right away. I do this every week to make sure no one is using my account without my permission. These steps will help keep your WhatsApp Web session secure and protect your personal messages.
