I personally wouldn't link to any article just for the shock factor or entertainment value; and that's not because I'm a stick in the mud. Don't people want to provide their audience with value? Helpful, relevant, meaningful information that enhances or improves something, etc etc...? I'm all for catchy headlines / headlines that are Irresistible to CLICK on... but I'd sure hope the content inside was worthy of the click, yeah? “Linkbait is content that’s irresistible to link to…”

But that is the sign of a great headline, wanting to read the text. BTW Daz, thanks for the link, I tried to leave a comment but don't have a blogspot account, or at least not one I can make public. ;) You need to get your arse on Wordpress, you will get more comments and have more conrol.

I think it's because I picture in my mind a dressed up Matador, his cape fluttering in the wind. Standing in front of a rabbit. We know it's ridiculous and yet it creates a mental representation, which is a powerful thing. If you can get your headlines to do that then you have won 80% of the battle to get your blog posts read.

I can remember when that was first launched, I was working in a popular pub and reading it as a group over a few pints and heavily salted roast potatoes (sold more beer that way) became a new tradition. I still remember some of the first few headlines they published, such as "Woman gave birth to a 4lb trout" (maybe it was a different weight), and there was one about a "Double Decker Bus Spotted on the Moon" It seems like things have continued down the same path.
