Making a point is important in persuasive essays, and that point should be clearly articulated in persuasive essay titles. The title of the paper will essentially be where you the author state clearly and emphatically the position you will be taking. Often, the easiest way to write a title for this kind of essay is to use the colon approach: in the first half of the essay title, state the problem; and in the second half of the essay title after the colon, state your position. Your essay will then focus on persuading the reader that your position is correct. The title should be enough to let the reader know at least what your position is. Here are some examples of how to do this.
