To make your post have a lot of votes, you have to write interesting title and description. The title is the most important part because it is the first thing that the visitor sees. If your title is ordinary, nobody will read the post. You have to write the title in a way that it will grab the attention of people and make people want to find out about it. The description is also important. The description must be brief and concise. It must describe the content of the destination page in 2 – 3 sentences. If the description is too long, it will cause people don’t want to read it. People will just skimp through the description so you don’t have to use a lot of words.
