Headline Analyzer

A headline analyzer is a tool that scores your blog titles, email subject lines, or ad headlines based on factors like word count, emotional appeal, power words, readability, and SEO length. It helps you write headlines that get more clicks and rank better in search engines.

A good headline score is 70 or above (grade B or A). This means your headline has the right length (6-12 words, 50-70 characters), includes emotional or power words, has clear sentiment, and uses an engaging structure like a list or question format.

The ideal headline length is 6 to 12 words. Headlines in this range are long enough to be descriptive and include keywords, but short enough to be scannable. For SEO titles, keep the character count between 50 and 70 to avoid truncation in Google search results.

Power words are terms that trigger action — like 'free', 'instant', 'guide', 'boost', and 'proven'. Emotional words evoke feelings — like 'amazing', 'secret', 'ultimate', and 'essential'. Using a mix of both increases click-through rates by making your headline more compelling.

Yes. List headlines (e.g., '7 Ways to...'), how-to headlines, and question headlines tend to get higher click-through rates and are more likely to appear as featured snippets. Google also uses your headline as the title tag in search results, so keeping it under 60 characters prevents truncation.
