This blog is written mostly tongue in cheek. Some points may be informative. Please provide your feedback.
If you suffer from self-irrelevancy, please seek professional advice.

Hello. You'll notice the title of this article is blank. For some reason, I cannot click in it.
Is that relevant? Yes, because odds are a person will only read the body of this or any other article if the title is catchy. Maybe a blank title is catchy. We'll see.
So why is an article judged mostly by its title? Is the old phrase "you can't judge a book by its cover" untrue? Do you have to have a good title to read on?
If the title is the main factor in getting a reader to read an article, then most of the effort should be put into the title, and minimal into the article. Why? Because if the title is inferior, then the article is irrelevant.
Is that fair? Probably not. Of course it's the same with other things, such as a person's appearance.
Make the effort to read the articles irregardless of the title.

Regards,
Irrelevant
