Robert — shame, shame for giving away these secrets!!

I love Digg as a spy tool…I use it to find niche market ideas, copywriting ideas (as you mention) and angles for getting my syndicated content picked up by the directories and social networking sites — great article man!

I stumbled upon a similar resource ( admittedly an old resource)
.A list of the most frequently “dug” words. You will find it under “Attention grabbing words”.

Oh great, so now we’ll get to see even more copycat formulaic headlines and articles.

Wunderbar.

It still amazes me that it is the ‘obvious’ and ‘simple’ tips that most people miss and yet you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it once you know.

Thanks for sharing this one!

Ya Digg is a great resource for headlines.… thanks for sharing the info, now I know where I can get great headline for my swipe files collection !

Robert, this digg​.com headline swipe file is good. I need these “What the Barber Said to the Bald Guy.” And “Blind Accountant Finds Tax Loophole.” type headlines. Good job.

Thanks Robert…I always liked browsing through Digg and it didn’t ‘click’ why until now. Thanks…you’re absolutely right, Digg is an archive of some of the best short headlines in the world!
I won’t forget this

I would love to clone Robert’s mind. It is a phenomenal repository of great marketing ideas. It’s hard to keep up with him because of his fast-​​paced productivity. He has become one of my top three mentors in Internet Marketing.

Thanks to Michel and Sylvie for putting his ideas on the “Marketer’s Board”

Thanks, Robert — what a great tip! It constantly amazes me how many simple and easy ways there are to connect with my market that I just don’t think of.

You don’t have to go to Digg for this. Yahoo is the most visited website, is written and edited by pros (Digg is user based), and has sharper headlines, some of which attract phenomenal response

Great tip! I’ve always found the best way to become a better marketer is to “copy” what is already working for others.

I have heard of Digg but I will be checking it out now as I had not visited that site . Thanks for the info. THere is so much to know about being online. I really appreciate that your link was shared via twitter (how I found you). I am amazed that compared to hair shows (where lots of platform artists who share what they know) this is such an eye opener and I find that blogs like this promote growth and insight into what you can do to improve what you do!
Thank You for sharing what YOU know!

Wow, that was a really good post and an excellent tip.

I’ve been working harder than ever to come up with eye grabbing copy and this tip will definitely come in handy.

Btw, you’re blog looks great. You guys always set the standard.

Have a good one.

Cheers,
Nando

Never thought of using Digg for headline swipe. I’m checking out Technorati as well. I don’t digg regularly. Sometimes, article headlines from Yahoo and MSN can be useful as well.
