When you create a hub, do you write the title first or last?
Phew, when I write my songs, poems and stories I dont plan on what to call them, many times I wake during the night knowing what to call them. as for hubs, I tend to have an idea as I start to write them, the title idea will be confirmed during the hub.
No, the title comes last for me, whether in poetry or article. Sometimes I get book ideas by title first, in a dream, or it just comes to me.
With poetry, a first line will just jump into my head and a poem follows. But titles come later.
I write the title first because I usually have a clear idea what I am going to write. I do sometimes change it when I am done though. I changed one title about 3 times, which is crazy for me.
Title first so that I can focus. I can't write anything without a title.
good qushtion i uslay write the tite first but i can see why some may prefur to write it last

So I was thinking about ideas for new challenges and thought about the weekly hubtopics challenge. And thought wouldn't it be great to push yourself and try to write a hub on the weekly topic each week for a year. What do you think? Too easy, too hard?

What to do if you have too many ideas for hubs and not enough time?I hear many people ask how do you come up with hub ideas. Writer's block seems to be a big issue. I on the other hand have the opposite problem I normally have more ideas than time and find it difficult to focus on just one! Any...

I'm relatively new to this site.I know most sites of its type do their best to be "Google friendly" which translates into "family friendly" (a phrase I hate, by the way). Over the years when tempted to use profanity either in a title or in the body of an article (and I can...
