Get More Clicks With The “Just A Few Words” Headline Hack

What do you think of this headline?

"These 5 Words Are The Secret To A Lush Back Garden"

It has a certain pull to it.

More pull than a simple “5 Tips For A Lush Back Garden” headline would have had.

Bottom line: It makes you want to click and view the content.

I call it the “just a few words” headline hack.

  • Pick a topic to cover.

  • Find a catchy way of explaining it a small number of words.

  • Tease at the number of words in the headline to hook the audience and get the click.

  • Elaborate on the topic in the actual content itself.

🧠 Why It Works:

  1. Specificity: The specific number of words creates a curiosity gap — we click to find out what the few words are.

  2. Instant Gratification: “5 words” is more appealing than “5 tips” or a simple “how-to” — instant solutions will always grab attention.
