I was probably as shocked as you were to discover that “will make you” is the most popular headline phrase in terms of average Facebook shares.

I have one question though.

How do these terms translate in organic search? It’s well-known that “how to”, list posts and case studies work best in terms of acquiring links and receiving shares on social media. For organic search, things are different too because people are actually searching for terms like “how to start an online business” as opposed to the interruption marketing methods on social media channels like Facebook.

What are your thoughts on this?

Cheers,
Ahmad

I hope that this research and the article that I found about solving writing problems will help me to do this.

Thanks for sharing it with your readers. Periodically I link to relevant articles from trusted sources on our company Facebook page. I wanted to try out using one of the top headline phrases, but our IT team says we can’t because FB is phasing out the ability to edit headline text. I have to use the “given name” of the article. I assume this is to cut down on all the fake news. Correct?
