2. Introduction to Headlines: introduction Toe Headlines Headlines are the first thing that anybody notices when the sea of bees off content.

But this is not always the Gates, because sometimes the headline can we written after the opening lines, And in this case, the headlines could be in the center of the content or after the opening lines are a few paragraphs. The succes over copy depends on its headline, and that is because hand lines did the mind. Whether opposing would read your copy or no, it's like a false impression in the mind off the readers. The reader is going to judge your content based on how attractive the headline is. That's why I always say that headlines are the make or break situation for any piece of content. If your headline is amazing, there is a high Jones that that the reader is going to get interested and he is going to read your continent. But if the headline is not good enough or it's not attractive, then even if your content is the most amazing one out there.

You must use dark colors like black dog blue, or preferably, any dark color that stands out from the rest of the content. Having a dark color for the headline is definitely better than using neon sheets like yellow or basted green or the light because they are not going to look good on. Actually, they're going to hold the eyes, which would drift away your readers from reading your content, and you don't want that. So that's why I use dark colors, which are soft on the eyes.

It can be two or three times bigger than the normal phones that you have used for the rest of the content on the description. And again, if you are given specific guidelines from your client or the company regarding what kind of callow phones and phone size to use stick to them. Don't use things ones if you have been given some guidelines. But if you don't have any guidelines regarding the foreign colors X sector, then this ISS, the general guidelines that you can follow every time you're creating headlines, the next thing that you should remember is to keep the land of the headline from 4 to 18 Woods.
