Overview
Write funny headlines for birthday newspaper
Headlines & headlines determine the success or failure of a newspaper. If the reader likes the headline on the front page of a newspaper, he picks it up and flips it open. If, on the other hand, the headline seems grey and dull, the newspaper will remain on the shelf unread.
To make your birthday newspaper a real hit, you should follow these tricks for successful headlines:
📢 Easy & understandable: Technical Chinese has no place in a headline. Better use simple words. Your reader must be able to grasp the idea of your headline within 1 second. If he needs longer, your headline is too complicated.
📢 Direct address: Call your reader by name or use the you/they form. This has a sympathetic effect and makes the reader take notice.
📢 ask a question: Who? What? How? When? Where? Why? Question words automatically awaken in us the need to answer. This is another way to attract attention.
📢 Contrasts & Contradictions: Contrasts create tension. Include opposing terms in headlines to specifically trigger your readers. For example:
"Up high and down low."
"Asleep by day, wide awake by night."
