Everything you’ve been told about copy writing is wrong!

by Tony Hetherington

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 to hire a copy writer - they are wrong! Hiring a copywriter is the WORST thing that you can do. Even if grammatically correct, their copy will disappoint. It will be empty and lack that magic ingredient that your customers will love - YOU! Only you have the unique mix of knowledge, passion and experience that could create a special bond with your customers.

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 say you won’t understand - they are wrong! If you refuse to struggle with their 300 page stale text books or heavy academic courses, don’t hire a copy writer, don’t let pencil heads and grammarians worry or undermine your confidence you can and will succeed through simple, practical step-by-step lessons.

They make it worse by making it seem a lot harder than it need be so that you go to them to write for you.

They are the dusty academics and academics that like to make you feel stupid when you make mistakes and they just love pointing them out. There may not be an official conspiracy with a secret HQ but it’s just as effective. For example, when have you ever heard a copywriter say “Here’s a better way of doing it that will save you time and money”?

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.

Here instead are four rules for creating great website content that both your human visitors and the search engines will love. 1. Don’t hire a copy writer - it is your voice and opinions that your customer wants to hear. 2. Create a unique bond - use your passion, knowledge and experience to build a unique trust between you and your customer. 3. Deal with their issues - By tackling their issues, fears and frustrations you can actually change your customers into rapid fans. 4. Finally, the biggest one - solve their problems and they’ll come back for more.
