#TheDailySpin: An SEO guide to writing headlines

By Alan Pearcy | Posted: March 7, 2012
Maybe the computer nerd isn’t the most creative candidate for the online editorial job, but you might consider hiring him (or her) over the experienced writer. At the very least, consider ProBlogger‘s less creative, more scientific approach to constructing headlines and titles.

Consider this a kind gesture—and a way to quiet its own “Lin-Sanity”: Ben & Jerry’s wants you to mark your calendars for Free Cone Day 2012 on Apr. 3.

Here’s some free advice for the gents: Shave your beard. While the office dress code might allow facial hair, the ladies around the workplace would prefer you make friends with your razor, according to psychologists.

Meanwhile, being a great employee might be going out of style.

Either way, no one wants to be the victim of online hacking at work, although The New York Times indicates there is a bright side: drawing the attention of executives and company shareholders to the problem of Internet espionage.

There’s also a bright side to Apple not releasing its highly anticipated iPad 3 on Tuesday, and that’s the release of its iPad HD.

Speaking of new releases: ’90s arcade nerds and board game aficionados, prepare to come together as one with the newest Monopoly mashup, Street Fighter edition.

Elsewhere in the gaming world, Nintendo named Uggie, the adorable dog from “The Artist,” its newest spokespersondpooch.

Although none of the 10 funniest QR code fails appeared on a dog (or any animal for that matter), they did show up in some odd places, including a third-rail and a headstone.

Some brands are in a tough place, caught in limbo between whether to adopt a new Facebook strategy or migrate their old one to the new Facebook Timeline.

By the way, the same brand-page changes require greater input from the PR team.

PR teams at Yahoo are among the departments targeted for a major restructuring as the organization’s new CEO Scott Thompson prepares for massive layoffs, possibly into the thousands.

If they’re forced to take a permanent vacation from work, some of Yahoo’s former PR pros could travel abroad and improve Americans’ reputation. U.S. travelers were voted the world’s worst tourists in a recent survey by citizens of other countries and by Americans. As with most things, we blame Angelina Jolie.
