11 Great Ways To Hook Readers in 2023

Want to know how to write a blog intro with impact?
It’s important to understand human psychology.
But don’t worry, you don’t need a psychology degree to write a great introduction.
Far from it.
You just need a few simple psychological principles that get readers saying “YES” to the rest of the article.
When you use them, it’s a win-win for everyone involved.
Your readers are thrilled they found your website.
And you:
- Gain a loyal following
- Get more email subscribers
- And make more sales or affiliate commissions
The best part?
A great intro can even improve organic rankings because more engagement sends “positive signals” to Google.
Keep reading for 11 tips to write highly compelling blog introductions.
1. Start with a Question (or Statistic)
When you ask a question in a blog post, the reader has to read the following line to get the answer.
And as an opening paragraph, it’s perfect, as it encourages this trend.
The trend of reading the next line.
Questions can also be used to build rapport by getting on the same page as your reader.
Or by making them laugh or by building curiosity.
Some question examples:
- Want to know a secret?
- Don’t you just hate it when your dog barks all night?
- What if you could please everyone all of the time?
Another great opening sentence is with an industry statistic.
Why?
Because they add a perceived authority to the writer, as it aligns you with the expert or industry.
If you’re not an expert on the topic with raving credentials, a statistic is the next best thing.
Examples of sharing stats:
- 81% of marketers view content as a core business strategy
- Content marketing generates three times as many leads as other digital marketing and costs 62% less
This might help you come across as an expert content marketer, even if you’re not one.
2. Know Your Readers’ Pain Points
In his book Thinking, Fast and Slow, Daniel Kahneman writes:
“Loss aversion refers to the relative strength of two motives: we are driven more strongly to avoid losses than to achieve gains.”
In simple terms, this means that humans are twice as motivated by pain than by pleasure, a common concept known in content marketing and modern psychology.
It’s also the reason why almost all sales copy and advertising leads with a pain point.
And you can do the same in a blog post introduction.
For example, which of the following motivates you more?
- This one habit can get you into shape for the summer and feeling amazing!
- Is this habit stopping you from getting into shape and destroying your confidence?
Life tends to escape most of us, and we become complacent. Then, avoiding the pain becomes less painful than leaving our comfort zone.
That’s why knowing your readers’ pain points are so effective.
Knowing the problems your audience is facing will clarify your message and influence your audience to take action.
3. Communicate Expertise
Many people shy away from promoting themselves because it feels like they’re bragging.
But, to write a good blog intro, expertise is essential.
However, you don’t need to hold a master’s degree or above to be an expert.
You only need to be perceived as an expert.
“How?” You ask…
Here are a few ways to establish authority and expertise in your writing.
Be Specific
Assertive people with authority are direct without being domineering.
They say it how it is.
That’s because they are confident about what they know and communicate with conviction.
To make this work in your intros, avoid being vague or passive and, instead, be specific.
Want a specific blog introduction example? Here are two:
The first one doesn’t require much authority, but the second is crucial.
- Christmas Jumpers: After researching 100+ Christmas jumpers, these were the best quality we found, thanks to their 100% sustainable and eco-friendly fabrics.
- The Ketogenic Diet: After 3 years on the keto diet, this is, in my expert opinion, the fastest and safest way to get started with keto.
Show, Don’t Tell
Instead of telling people how much of an expert you are, demonstrate your wealth of knowledge by making complex topics easy to grasp.
It’s better to let them define you as an expert than you trying to convince them you are one.
Use Social Proof
Social proof is an excellent way to establish expertise and authority.
Here’s how you could include it in your intros:
People often ask me; “What is the best way to market my business online?”
Or…
I get this question asked a lot by my email subscribers, so I thought I’d address it here…
This ties into the previous tip. You’re not directly stating that you’re an expert. You’re using social proof to do it for you.
4. Keep it Short and Sweet
Unless you’re a world-class storyteller, aim to keep your blog introductions short and sweet.
Clear and concise, and on point.
Try to set the pace of the article in your intros. A pace that moves them along quickly.
Successful introductions only require one thing.
Let the reader know they will get the answers they seek in your article.
Of course, longer intros can work, but they must be well thought out and match the tone of the main content.
5. Meet the Search Intent

Meeting the search intent is essential.
And not just for SEO benefits, as it lets the reader know they’re in the right place.
To do this, include your primary keyword in the first paragraph if you can.
You can also emphasize search intent in bullet points.
(More on bullet points later.)
The reason why search intent is so important in SEO is this:
Relevance, context, and understanding.
When people do a Google search, they can often be vague.
That’s because they don’t know the details of what they’re searching for.
But what they do understand is how their search query relates to their problem.
When you can communicate their problem as it relates to the intent of the post, they won’t want to stop reading.
6. Obliterate Objections
Objections are simply doubts in a person’s mind that what they will read (or buy) will help them.
Everyone has objections.
But we can bundle almost all objections into four buckets:
- People don’t want to waste time
- They don’t want to waste money
- There’s a lack of trust
- They are unsure if there’s a need
Let’s briefly break each of these down from the context of writing better introductions.
First, people don’t want to waste time, so if they feel like they need to make an effort, they might put off reading a good blog post.
Combat this objection by stating how easy it is to learn, how quickly they can implement the teachings, or how beginner-friendly it is.
Second, they don’t want to waste money. If your article is reviewing an expensive product, highlight the benefits of owning it or the disadvantages of not owning it.
Third, if there’s a lack of trust, it could be in you, themselves, or the topic you’re writing about and will have doubts.
This one comes down to confidence. The best way to create trust is to communicate expertise and build rapport.
Lastly, people are unsure if they need to know more about your topic or buy what you’re selling or promoting.
To overcome this objection, the reader needs to become more aware of the pain points if they don’t learn more about them.
When you combat these objections in your intros, you’ll get people reading your content every time.
7. Build Anticipation
Building anticipation in your introductions is a great way to keep people reading.
This can be done in a couple of ways.
Similar to how horror movies keep you on the edge of your seat or the reverse; a motivational speaker on stage.
Here are a few ways you can incorporate these into your blog intros.
The first idea is to introduce a personal success story of how you overcame a challenging issue (or achieved an inspiring goal).
For example:
In this post, I’ll share how I overcame my fear of public speaking in less than 1 hour. Not only that, I got a standing ovation the very next day.
Another way is to express a negative emotion your reader may be facing that the article is going to help solve.
For example:
Want to know what the best meditation apps are?
Then you’re in luck. After spending the last 2 years completely stressed and burnt out, I tested 7 meditation apps over 30 days.
The best bit?
My stress has completely cleared up and I have more time to focus on my business.
Lastly, tell people what they can expect from the article. For example, this can be best done using bullet points.
This is my complete guide on how I increased organic traffic by 273% in just 3 months.
You’ll discover:
- The three things I did differently to exceed my goal
- How my traffic increase has impacted my income
- And a step-by-step strategy so that you can replicate my results
8. Empathize

Injecting empathy turns a basic blog intro into a great blog intro.
And it’s an excellent way to engage readers as it helps build rapport.
But what does that even mean?
Rapport is how people connect through shared views, mutual understanding, and acceptance of each other’s differences.
Empathy is just one way to build rapport with your reader.
To bake this into your introduction, here are some helpful pointers.
- Make a statement that the reader agrees with – People generally connect with others who agree with them, at least in the beginning.
- Get on their level – Meet the reader where they’re at by aligning with their needs, hopes, and desires.
- Show your vulnerable side – Paradoxically, vulnerability shows strength. And if your reader relates to your pain, they will begin to trust you more.
9. Use a Copywriting Framework
Copywriting is the art of sales using the written word. This is perfect for introverts who hate cold calls or sales meetings.
And it’s perfect for an effective introduction.
A copywriting framework is a structured way to format your writing.
For example, this is the PAS framework:
- P: Problem – Highlight a pain point the reader is facing
- A: Agitate – Emphasis the issues that may arise if the problem isn’t solved
- S: Solution – Outline specific steps to solve the problem
Many copywriting frameworks exist, such as AIDA (Attention, Interest, Desire, Action) and BAB (Before, After, Bridge).
Using one of them in a blog intro will yield significant results.
Here’s how PAS might look in your introductions:
Problem: Are you struggling to get enough fruit and veg in your diet?
Agitate: I get it. It can be hard to build this habit. Not to mention wreak havoc on your health.
Solve: That’s why I’ve put together this list of healthy smoothie recipes that only take 10 minutes to make.
10. Use Bullet Points

Bullet points have been used to sell stuff for decades.
They break up the text, which draws the reader’s attention. And they can offer some highly engaging details.
Details that get people wanting to read further.
Here’s how you can use them in your intros.
After introducing the article, share some context to clarify what they’ll learn.
Another way to use bullet points is to state the benefits they’ll gain from reading your post. Or the benefits of a product if you’re writing a review.
Lastly, make them skimmable and easy to digest. This will help them flow through the intro and is key for your overall blog content strategy.
11. Provide a Call to Action
A call to action simply tells the reader what to do next.
Sometimes, it’s to get them to click a button or a link, buy a product, or sign up for a newsletter.
But it can also be used at the end of your introductions.
For example, some articles end like this:
Read on to discover the best keto recipes for complete beginners.
Or the call to action can be as simple as saying, “Keep reading” or “Let’s dive right in.”
Whatever you decide on, adding a call to action is an essential piece of a highly converting blog introduction.

This 46-Year-Old is Making +$6k/Month Recommending Laptops and Tablets

Louie Lovoy had spent more than 2 decades of his professional career in the non-profit sector, but he was itching to try something else.
With no previous experience or understanding of SEO, he and a business partner dove headfirst into the world of online businesses and bought a website on Empire Flippers. And so, their adventure began.
Between hiring and firing SEO specialists, monthly revenue peaking at $10k and then nosediving to $2k, and a Google algorithm update, it’s been a real rollercoaster.
Keep reading to hear about the many lessons Louie has learned and how his site, NetbookNews, is on track to make $7k this month.

Meet Louie Lovoy
My name is Louie and I have been married for 21 years to my beautiful wife Lindsay. We have 2 boys, Levi (13) and Luke (7). My background has been in non-profit organizations for the last 24 years but in 2020, my business partner and I decided to take a risk and purchase an online business.
Why He Bought NetBookNews
In the summer of 2020, I was looking for an additional income stream and exploring several different opportunities. During that search, I listened to a podcast where someone mentioned buying an online business on Empire Flippers.
This was intriguing to me and I presented the idea to a friend and asked him if he would be open to investing in my idea to purchase an online company as a loan to me. He said that he was not just interested in doing it as a loan to me but wanted to be 50/50 partners together in the enterprise.
With that, we began searching for the best possible online business we could find. We wanted something that was based in SEO and didn’t require any physical inventory. That led us down the road of affiliate marketing.
We looked at dozens of websites that were for sale and interviewed dozens of business owners. Finally, we found NetbookNews and decided this was the best fit for us mainly because of the strong domain authority that the site had built over time.
We purchased NetbookNews in November of 2020. The site has 100% organic traffic from SEO and provides helpful articles about laptops and tablets that are all based on keyword research. Some of the articles are product buying guides and some of the articles are relevant tips and how-tos.
When we purchased the site, it had averaged $4,300 per month in net profit over the prior 6 months. We contracted an SEO specialist who advised us to create another category of site articles focused on cameras. He did keyword research and gave us a list of keywords to go after.
We began creating content briefs around each keyword and hired a writer to write articles based on the content briefs over the next 6 months we added about 15 new articles to the site. After no revenue growth took place we decided to stop adding new content.
Finally, in early 2022 the site began growing like crazy and even hit an all-time high of over $10,000 of growth revenue in April of 2022.
Then Google made a big change to their algorithm in May of 2022 that really revealed some deficiencies in our site. By June of 2022, our revenue dropped all the way down to around $2k per month and stayed that way through October of 2022.
During that time we searched and searched for a new SEO specialist. We finally found and hired a new one in October of 2022 and he did a massive audit and overhaul of our site.
Our site experienced the natural holiday revenue spike in November and December and in January we hired a writer and with the help of our SEO specialist began going after lots of new keywords and shifted our focus from product reviews to tips and how-to articles.
He even advised us to remove that camera category that we added so that Google would see our site as an authority site that is focused on laptops and tablets. We have added around 20 new articles in 2023 so far.
How Much Money He’s Making
This strategy has proven to be the right one and our revenue has grown from $2k in October of 2022 all the way to over $6k in February of 2023 and we are currently on pace to do over $7k in March of 2023.
We have 2 separate income streams that are split fairly evenly. The first is display advertising through Mediavine. The other is affiliate marketing commissions through Amazon Associates.
It has been an up-and-down roller coaster ride since purchasing the site in November of 2020 but it has taken us about 2 and a half years to achieve our current revenue level and we are continuing to trend in the right direction.
I personally work on the business for about 3 to 5 hours per week.
His Thoughts on SEO
Our #1 marketing strategy is 100% SEO. We have not done any paid advertising. SEO and organic search traffic are the entire key to success for our business.
Keyword Research
Currently, we are contracting an amazing SEO specialist that does all of our keyword research. He looks for keywords that we can rank for and then passes those along to our writer who creates excellent content that Google seems to be favoring.
Link Building
Link building is very important in order to continue to increase our domain authority and subsequently boost the ranking of each individual article.
In January of 2023, we invested in a press release that resulted in 300 new quality backlinks. In the past, the previous owner built thousands of links through HARO.
Louie’s Content Creation Process
We are currently contracting a writer that is creating around 13 new articles per month. He is writing these articles based on the keyword research done by our SEO specialist.

We have also begun going back into older posts and replacing some of the outdated products with newer ones that are more helpful and relevant to our readers.
His Favorite Resources and Tools
I would say Empire Flippers is one of my favorite resources, and when it comes to indispensable tools for my business, those would be Upwork, Fat Joe, and Ahrefs.
His Biggest Challenge
My biggest struggle has been the temptation to withdraw owner’s distributions out of the company instead of reinvesting more into the future growth of the company.
Louie’s Most Important Accomplishment
I’m most proud of investing in an asset that can grow in value over time vs. continuing to merely trade time for money.
What He Wishes He Knew When He Started
I wish I had known about the importance of constantly investing in the growth of the company instead of expecting to get something for nothing.
His Main Mistake
I went for 1.5 years without investing in the growth of the company because all I wanted to do was take money out of it.
His Advice for Other Entrepreneurs
Be patient. Reinvest revenue for growth. Find experts that know your industry and pay them and trust them.

How to Create Effective Testimonial Pages
Creating great testimonial pages for your site can be a bit tricky. It requires effort to gather true reviews from honest customers, but the end result is worth the extra work!
While you want to ensure you get rave reviews from satisfied buyers, here are some tips to help you create effective and engaging testimonial pages.
- Authenticity is key when creating an effective testimonials page. Make sure the reviews are genuine and coming from a real person.
- Concise yet detailed reviews are also important, providing more information without rambling.
- Be sure to ask specific questions to get the answers you’re looking for. That way, you can filter out irrelevant information and focus on real people expressing genuine thoughts about your products and services.
- Personalize each review with photos or other visuals to provide powerful visual reinforcement that each review truly comes from an actual customer.
- Keep the conversational tone natural and avoid overly formal language. Nobody wants a scripted-sounding testimonial page!
Different Types of Testimonial Pages
- Video testimonial pages. These are effective because they are often seen as more sincere and authentic than text-only reviews. The best videos feature customers talking about their experiences honestly and genuinely off-script.
- Social media. These are great for showing how real customers interact with your business. They can be a fantastic way to showcase loyalty and trust from your existing customers and reach new visitors.
- Customer interviews. This is a great way to highlight customer stories in an engaging and interactive format. Interviews can provide valuable insight into how customers use your product or service and why they chose you over competitors.
- Long-form testimonials/blog posts. Longer reviews give readers more information about the experience of working with you. They have more detail that can help make decisions.
- Short-form testimonials/quick quotes. These are great for quick and easy reading. They should still include enough detail to showcase satisfied customer experiences effectively.
- Case study/customer success story. These are more in-depth than other types of testimonials. They provide an even more comprehensive understanding of how customers use your products or services.
- Third-party reviews, peer reviews, or authority testimonials. These can increase the authenticity of your testimonial pages since they come from a credible source outside your company.
Regardless of the type of testimonial pages you choose, showcase customers’ genuine experiences with your business.
Tips on How to Get Customer Feedback
- Ask! One of the most effective ways to get customer feedback is simply by asking. You can do this through surveys, emails, or other methods. Make it easy for people by including a link to wherever you want the customer to leave their review.
- Create touch points. Create contact points throughout the customer experience that allow you to capture feedback. You can include surveys on your website, requests for reviews at the end of an order or delivery process, or even provide a link to a short survey in your emails.
- Incentives. Offering incentives like discounts, coupons, or free products are great motivators for customers to leave reviews.
- Follow up on positive experiences. If a customer has had a positive experience with your business, following up and asking them to leave a review can be very effective.
- Social media. Utilizing social media is an easy and effective way to get customer feedback. Posting polls or surveys on your social media pages can help you get responses quickly and easily.
- Analytics and reports. Analyzing your website analytics and customer reports can provide valuable insight into how customers interact with your business. This information can help you identify areas where improvements may be needed and get an idea of how satisfied customers are.
- Customer service and support. Asking customers for feedback on their experience with customer service or support teams is a great way to get honest and insightful feedback. This can help you identify potential areas of improvement.
No matter which method you choose, it’s important to ensure the process is easy and accessible for customers. Provide options for customers to leave feedback in different formats, and be sure to thank them for their time and input.
How to Make Your Testimonial Pages Stand Out from the Competition
- Showcase the most relevant testimonials when displaying testimonials on your website, including ones relevant to the page or product they’re featured on.
- Include customer photos. Including customer photos with the testimonials can help to create a more personal connection with the reader. It also increases the authenticity of the testimonial.
- Keep them up-to-date. Make sure your testimonials are kept up-to-date and regularly refreshed. This way, visitors will have access to the most recent customer experiences.
- Include multiple formats. Offer different formats for customers to leave reviews, including text, video, and audio. This makes it easier for customers with different preferences to leave feedback.
- Make them easy to find. Place customer reviews and testimonials in prominent positions on your website so visitors can easily find and read them.

What is CBD Crumble? | GreenState

Hearst Newspapers participates in various affiliate marketing programs, which means we may earn a commission when you purchase products featured in this content or purchase from vendors featured here. Our professional curators independently research and recommend products and services, with no newsroom involvement. Merchants can pay for a sponsored listing and may choose to rewrite their summary. When that happens, we label the listing as “Sponsored” and highlight it in grey to differentiate the merchant-provided content from our writing.
If you enjoy smoking your CBD products, then crumble may be one of the best things you’ll find. Crumble is a wax-like form of CBD extract that’s been quickly gaining traction in the market. There is a growing interest in CBD crumble, especially among more explorative customers.
So, what is the buzz all about? What is CBD crumble and how does it work? In the following paragraphs, we share insight into what is CBD wax crumble, how to use crumble CBD, and the benefits that it offers.
What is Crumble?
CBD crumble is a concentrated CBD that has been extracted from dried herb to give a wax-like, honeycomb-looking product. Interestingly, while CBD crumble typically looks solid at first glance, it has a very weak consistency, which causes it to “crumble” under light pressure — hence its name.
But, that’s not all there is to this exciting, relatively new product. CBD crumble generally come in very potent forms, its CBD concentration could exceed 80%. But that may not even be the best part.
You’ll may enjoy the entourage effect when you consume CBD crumble, as it is full-spectrum and contains several other beneficial compounds, including CBG, CBN, flavonoids, terpenes, and other phytonutrients.
But, how well do dabs compare with flowers? Here’s an article with a comparison between the health aspects of dabs and flowers.
Does CBD Crumble Get You High?
CBD crumble may not get you high. This is because CBD is generally a non-psychoactive cannabinoid and CBD crumble does not contain THC. However, you’ll possibly feel the effects of the CBD very fast, depending on your administration method and dabbing can be one of the fastest ones.
CBD Crumble Effects
When you consume CBD crumble, you may feel the same effects as every other form of CBD. However, the difference is that maybe CBD crumble could act faster.
Here are some possible effects of CBD crumble:
Possible Pain Relief
Research publications have shown that CBD may help ease pain in the body due to its possible interaction with the endocannabinoid system. As a result, consuming CBD crumble may provide relief for pain.
May Reduce Inflammation
Experts also believe CBD could have anti-inflammatory properties, which may come in handy if you’re dealing with health conditions that involve inflammation.
Could Improve Mood
The interaction of CBD with the body’s endocannabinoid system may also improve the production of serotonin and oxytocin — the body’s “happy” chemicals — which could help improve mood. This may also aid the management of conditions like anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
Better Relaxation
Some studies show that CBD could have a relaxing effect. It could reduce the production of stress hormones and may promote muscle relaxation.
How to Use CBD Crumble?
CBD wax crumble is a versatile cannabidiol product that you may enjoy in a variety of ways. Here are some ideas on how to use crumble CBD:
Vaporizing
A popular way to administer CBD crumble is by vaporizing it. However, you’ll need a refillable cartridge or a concentrate vaporizer. Once you acquire any of these devices, you would add your CBD wax crumble to the chamber, heat it up, and then inhale.
Dabbing
Dabbing is considered more efficient than vaporizing by many. In order to dab you’ll need a dabbing rig. You’ll heat up the rig and add only a small ration of the crumble. Like vaporizing, you’ll also have to inhale here.
Smoking
Smoking CBD crumble will require traditional methods of rolling paper and something to spark it up after. Roll a regular joint with dried CBD hemp flower, sprinkle crumble in the flower, and roll a joint like normal. However, the bright side here is you wouldn’t need any high-end gadget or tool to enjoy your crumble.
Eating
If you like to get creative with your food, you can add some CBD crumble to the cooking process. You can create a CBD crumble edible by adding it to your baked goods or putting some in your drinks. However, ingesting your crumble could mean a slightly longer waiting time before you feel its effects.
How to Smoke CBD Crumble?
The best way to smoke CBD crumble may be through dabbing. Here are some tips to help you along the way:
- Turn on your flame and heat the nail directly until it’s red hot.
- Then, turn off the flame and place the glass dome over the nail. Wait for about 20 to 30 seconds.
- Next, add your CBD crumble directly onto the nail inside the dome.
- Inhale slowly while rotating the dabber tip to ensure there’s no oil stuck to the dabber.
Can You Eat CBD Crumble?
Yes, you may choose to add your CBD crumble to your food and drinks if you prefer to ingest it. However, you should note that consuming CBD crumble orally may mean you have to wait until the CBD makes it through your digestive system before you can feel its effects.
CBD Dabs vs. Crumble vs. Shatter
CBD dabs, crumble, and shatter are all types of CBD concentrates that can be more popular among consumers looking for a more potent form of CBD. The only difference is in the texture and that’s the best way to differentiate between the three substances.
On one hand, CBD crumble has a crumbly, wax-like texture while CBD shatter has a more stable, glass-like form. However, CBD dabs have a much more waxy feel to them.
Where to Find Pure CBD Crumble?
Finding a reputable brand that manufactures high-quality CBD crumble and has lab results and certifications to back them up is key if you’re going to be consuming crumble.
The first product we like to recommend in the crumble category would be this full-spectrum CBD crumble from Pinnacle Hemp.
