Although there is debate raging about how important on page optimisation is for seo. Danny Sullivan of <a href=\"http:\/\/searchengineland.com\/\">Search Engine Land<\/a> pretty much nailed the debate shut <a href=\"http:\/\/searchengineland.com\/070111-112236.php\">with this post<\/a>.

Making me reach for my copywriting books a bit more often.<\/p>\n<p>As John Carlton says it&#8217;s all about the &#8220;incongruent juxtaposition of seemingly unrelated ideas, facts or events.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In fact, another thing Carlton teaches is that if you want to know how to write headlines go read the National Enquirer.<\/p>\n<p>Think how enticing the headline, &#8220;Boy Eats Own Head&#8221; is.
