A title is the first thing people see when browsing papers.

It is important that a title catches a


potential reader’s attention, but must be professional as well. According to Adrian Wallwork,
every word in a title is important. In writing an effective title, we must ask: is it concise, effective,
and informative? A good title must:
1. Make sense to the reviewer,
2. Be easily found by a search engine system,
3. Will attract the right kinds of readers rather than discouraging them,
4. Will be easily comprehensible to anyone in your general field,
5. Is reasonably short, and
6. Has a definite and concise indication of what’s written in the paper itself.
