During my recent hiatus from eBay and The Auction Rebel Darren Rowse wrote “5 Pick Up Lines to Get You The Girl - And Why Opening Lines Matter.”

While the focus of Darren’s blog is blogging, this post can teach us some lessons about writing auction headlines that will attract potential bidders attention and lead them to click through to check out your auction.

In part, Darren says:

• Does it interest them or pique their curiosity?
• Does it hook them into the topic?
• Does it create a need for them to read more?
• Does it promise a benefit of reading your post?
• Does it promise to entertain them?

Each of those questions are just as important for auction headlines as they are for blog posts. Reading Darren’s other posts in his “How To Make Your RSS Feed POP” will also offer some excellent insight into writing both auction headlines and descriptions.
