===Creating the Title===
The [http://jesslively.com/how-to-choose-blog-topics  topic title] or [[Headers and Sub-headers|<i>subtitle</i>]] should be overt and easily readable. The viewer should quickly grasp the topic idea by simply reading the title. The narrative of the topic is also essential to the title’s observable intent. A first person narrative suggests sharing your personal views while a third person narrative suggests a more educational and professional approach. For example, adding the first person –ing to the beginning of the title “Discovering a Passion” gives the reader the impression that the writer will incorporate personal experiences and opinions into the blog, while the third person “Discover a Passion” suggests the blog’s intent is to educate through expertise. Lastly, the title and subtitle should have an angle- something memorable, catchy or fun.
