It’s ok to break these rules if you’re doing it on purpose
Do some research: topics
Which quizzes are shared on your topic?
Use BuzzSumo to check
Search ‘quiz’ + keywords/domaine.g. ‘moz.com’ quiz
Do some research: titles What titles work? Search competitors -- or playbuzz, buzzfeed, disney domains
Hardest, ultimate, ever….
What titles/topics would work for me?
What content resonates with your audience?
What are the most shared topics?
What topics get the most questions?
What topics are most controversial?
Are there decisions that people struggle to make?
Are there topics that are misunderstood?

Tips for graded quizzesChoose a compelling title• Are you a ____ expert?• Can you pass the ___ test?• The world’s hardest ___ quiz• Are you a true ____?
Keep your quizzes fair and clear• Limit the number of answers to each question• Remove any friction from the process
Show feedback• Give more information about the right answer
Make people feel good about their results• 45% of shares on graded quizzes come from 100% scores• Assign outcomes. “You got 90%. You’re a genius!”
Tips for outcome quizzesChoose a compelling title• Which ___ are you?• What ___ do you actually belong in?• What kind of ___ are you?
Create shareworthy outcomes • invoke awe, laughter or amusement (BuzzSumo)• help people define themselves,
nourish relationships & get the word out about causes they love (NY Times)
• make it a “feel-good, look-good” mechanism• Help people share what “they want their friends to think they like” (Buzzfeed)
Build a process• Identify outcomes• Map differentiating factors• Be creative with your questions and answers
Pro tip: work backwards from outcome
Write these first.
Make sure people would be proud to share
Make sure your CTA relates to outcome.
