Generate 10 YouTube title variants for my video, each using a different proven CTR pattern.
VIDEO TOPIC (be detailed): {what_the_video_is_actually_about}
TARGET AUDIENCE: {who_is_this_for}
MY CHANNEL'S NORMAL TONE: {tone — e.g. 'tutorial', 'investigative essay', 'casual founder'}
KEYWORDS YOU'D EXPECT VIEWERS TO SEARCH: {2-4_keywords}
VIDEO LENGTH: {duration}
Use these 10 patterns, one title per pattern. Label each:
1. Plain question hook ('Why does X actually happen?')
2. Specific number + result ('I tried X for 30 days. Here's what changed.')
3. Contrarian POV ('You're wrong about X. Here's why.')
4. Story open ('How I lost X by doing Y')
5. Comparison ('X vs Y after 6 months — which won?')
6. Tutorial direct ('How to X in 10 minutes (no fluff)')
7. Curiosity gap ('Nobody talks about X. They should.')
8. Mistake-prevention ('5 X mistakes that cost me Y')
9. Reaction / opinion ('I watched every X video. They're all wrong about Z.')
10. Authority drop ('A 10-year X explains Y in 8 minutes')
RULES:
- Each title ≤60 chars (YouTube truncates after that on mobile).
- Front-load the keyword in 8 of 10 (skip for hook-style only).
- No clickbait that overpromises. The video must deliver.
- After all 10, recommend the top 3 for THIS specific topic and explain why.0 copies·0 saves·4 views
