Everything you’ve been told about copy writing is wrong!
Whether you have a website to launch, an ebook to publish, or affiliate scheme to promote website copy writing is one of the most essential skills to have. If you’re promoting anything online you will need to create compelling copyto form articles, press releases and website content. But they’ve been hiding the truth from you!
They say you need a copy writer - they are wrong! Using a copywriter would spell disaster for your website! Their copy would be hollow and empty. Although punctuation perfect it would lack all your knowledge and passion that makes you unique and interesting.
They say creating a great sales page is important - they are wrong! Creating great copy for your website is absolutely essential and goes far beyond the sales page. To build long term success you need fantastic content. Whether you have an ebook to sell, website to launch or affiliate scheme to promote you need to write interesting and compelling copy - copy that will form blog entries, articles, forum posts, press releases and website content. Even if you focus totally on pay per click advertising such as Google Adwords you still need to create winning adverts and persuasive landing pages or your sales will be lost.
They tell you that PLR copy is the answer - they are wrong! PLR (Private Label Rights) copy is dreadful. It’s the industrial approach to website content in which you can buy 100s of articles in one go.
They don’t want you to realise that you are the best person to create your copy so that you keep paying them.
They are the mix of copy writers, dusty academics, and grammarians that like to feel superior. These pencil heads relish in pointing out mistakes we make and undermining us so we never learn. It may not even be an official conspiracy with an evil mastermind in a secret HQ but it’s still as effective. When have you ever heard a copywriter say “No, you should be writing this instead” or “You have the knowledge and passion that I can’t match”?
Never! Not a chance. They want to keep you right where you are and bill you again and again knowing that you’ll never realise how easy it can be to create your own copy, or that you’re the best person to do it.
It’s time that you changed a few things and decided to create the compelling copy that the search engines and your customers will love. 1. Fire the copy writer - it is your opinions that count. 2. Answer your customer’s questions - By solving their problems they’ll come back for more. 3. Take control - only by taking ownership of all of your site including the content will you get the success you deserve.
