Also think about the appearance of the content in a search result.
How tempting is the link? Is it obviously about you? Content that
has a compelling headline (“Joe Smith is a liar and a cheat” or even
just “Learn the truth about Joe Smith”) is likely to attract far more
clicks and readers than content with a boring or obscure headline
(“Regarding falsity of recent reports”), even if the exact same false in-
formation is repeated across both sites. Compare the prominence of
the negative information to the prominence of positive and neutral
information; if there is positive or neutral information with a com-
pelling headline, it may draw many clicks away from the false or mis-
leading negative information.
