Infographic

Overview

The title is the name given to a Post, Book, Event, etc., to identify or describe it.

The subtitles are what draw more readers to it. Besides the main title, the subtitle also has a purpose. When readers choose to check it out, subtitles provide them with further information. In only a few words, a great subtitle can elevate a book's cover, entice people, and clarify exactly what the book is about. An author can focus and make a substantial impact by strategically placing subtitles. However, you may also believe that your work doesn't need a subtitle, and that's OK because it's optional. A few lines of text called a caption are added to published images to provide context and more explanation.

Add Post
