1. One thing you will find that seems to attract attention is having some sort of top ten list. For some reason, people always tend to be interested in seeing what is at the top. It could be cars, movies, TV shows, books, you name it, if it is in the top ten people are probably going to read it.

2. Wanting to learn how to do something or learning how to do it in a way that is easier than how they have been use to doing something, is always an attraction for people. They love seeking out good how to’s and tutorials. It is important to remember though not to pick a topic that has been done over and over again. That is a definite turn off.

3. People are easily bored, so it is vitally important that you find something that is unique or unusual to keep their focus and interest. Just make sure that what you post or write is real and not just something you decided to make up to get people’s attention.

4. Controversy is a good thing to use as an attractant. Even if people say they try to avoid controversy, they always seem to be drawn to it, like a moth to a light. Another thing that attracts attention is if someone stands up for their beliefs in the midst of controversy.

5. Laughing is one of the more enjoyable things in life. It is a sure fire way to make people feel good and to make them happy. So always make sure to try and find something humorous to post so that people can have a good time.

6. OK, having something outlandish to share, something that will get the readers head to be shaking after they have finished reading it, is always a good thing. People love to read about weird stuff, especially if it’s something really outlandish done by another person. They love shaking their heads thinking they are glad that was not them.

7. One of the most important things that you need to remember when posting on a social bookmarking site, it to always make sure that if it is a news item, to always make sure that it is current news. Old news is the surest way to get your page to drop to the bottom of any rankings.
