Frequently asked questions

What makes a good headline score?

Strong headlines balance common words (readability) with uncommon words (interest), add emotional or power words for pull, and land around 6–12 words. This analyzer weighs all of those into a single 0–100 score.

What is the ideal headline length?

Aim for 6–12 words and under ~60 characters. Longer headlines get truncated in search and social; shorter ones often lack specificity.

What are power words and emotional words?

Power words ("proven", "instant", "secret") trigger action; emotional words ("amazing", "fearless", "heartbreaking") create feeling. A headline with one or two of each tends to out-click a flat one — but overloading them reads as clickbait.

Does this work for blog titles, ads and email?

Yes — the same principles drive blog headlines, landing-page headers, ad copy, YouTube titles and email subject lines. See our examples by use case for tailored guidance.
