SCROLL-STOPPING CONTENT

The First Line Decides Everything

Studies show that 8 out of 10 people read the headline, but only 2 out of 10 read the rest. Your hook is your most valuable piece of copy.

1.7 Seconds

Average attention span on social feeds. Your hook has less than 2 seconds to stop someone from scrolling past. Every single word counts.

8 out of 10 People Only Read the Hook

The Copyblogger study found 80% of readers never get past the headline. Your opening line IS your content for most people scrolling their feed.

5-10x Engagement Difference

The gap between a weak hook and a strong hook is not 10-20%. It is 5-10x in likes, comments, and shares. Hook quality is the single biggest engagement lever you have.

Hook Formulas by Platform

1

Reddit: Lead with authenticity

"I just spent 6 months doing [thing] and here is what nobody tells you." Reddit rewards vulnerability, data, and genuine stories. Avoid anything that sounds like a sales pitch or clickbait.

2

LinkedIn: Lead with a bold claim

"Most founders get [common advice] wrong. Here is why." LinkedIn rewards contrarian takes and professional insights. The hook should make people click "see more" to read the rest.

3

Email: Lead with the subject line

"Quick question about [specific topic]." Email hooks need to be short, personalized, and curiosity-driven. The subject line is your hook. If it does not get opened, the email never gets read.

Hooks get attention. MediaFast helps you turn it into growth.
