We all know that readers don't have much time, attention, or patience. In fact, it's now said that 'attention' is the only currency worth coveting if you're in business. Hell, if you’re still reading this far, I'm counting my lucky stars! But what got you here? What made you give me the last few minutes of your attention?

Best yet, a strong headline can help you stand out from the crowd, drive traffic to your site, and increase views on social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.
So, to help make things a little easier, I’ve scoured the globe for the top 10 'how to' articles with tips and hacks to help your blog post get the attention it deserves.
Enjoy!
