title Factor

Contains a Number

Whether the title contains any number — a dollar amount, a statistic, a list count, or a year. Numbers add specificity and concrete detail to titles.

Numbers stand out visually in a wall of text and signal concrete, factual content. A title with '$4,200' or '30 million people' feels more credible and specific than one with vague language like 'a lot of people.' Numbers also attract viewers who want data, not opinions.
