21 Words to Use Other Than THINGS In Your Article Titles
By Brandon Cox | 12 Comments
Let me tell you three things wrong with using the word things in so many of your titles, like “Ten Things To Remember About Blogging…” After all, things isn’t really one of the most potent things you can say…
- Tools
- Details
- Interests
- Passions
- Practices
- Habits
- Tricks
- Ways
- Methods
- Concepts
- Principles
- Points
- Tips
- Tasks
- Ideas
- Actions
- Finds
- Factors
- Bonuses
- Steps
- Flavors
Oh, one more thing… watch the word stuff too.

Brandon,
I’ll have to watch myself more closely when I write my blog posts, but I don’t think things or stuff are words I overuse. I’ll be adding this post to my bookmarks just in case.
I’m sure there are others though, and a list like this for those would come in quite handy.

Brandon,
This post came at a near perfect time for me. I was writing an article about 6 things to do with you children for Christmas, but then I knew things would not be appropiate in the title because it is too general.
So, I asked myself what are these “things”?
I ended up deciding that these things are activities, which made my post title that much better.
Haha activities would be number 22. :D
