If you are writing your first article on Medium, it all begins with the headline. If you have an interesting tagline, it will make readers wonder what your article is about. You have to make the taglines appealing to readers, so they will read the article.

Use fewer words in your headline

I used fewer words in my latest article “Thinking Outside the Box!” so it could make readers curious to read the article. Newspapers have been using that technique for centuries.

Using catchy taglines

A catchy tagline speaks directly to the reader’s brain and the reader usually reads the following article which leads to more reads. The articles you developed should contain high-quality content. Sometimes your content may need catchy taglines to get noticed.
