Write the most Google-friendly headline!


Above: "Google whores," as suggested by some readers of Comment Central

Daniel Finkelstein, chief leader writer of The Times of London, has invited readers of his blog, Comment Central, to submit the most "Google-friendly" headline they can think of, stuffing the headline with terms they think might turn up in future searches (a practice he reports is called "Google whoring").

Some sample entries:

My own submission:

So how about you? Submit your idea to Daniel!
