No, seriously, why do I have a blog?

No, seriously, why do I have a blog?

by Tina | Mar 25, 2019 | First, Running a business, Writing tips

I’m a writer, and I don’t like math. Shocker, I know. (Bear with me, this does have something to do with blogging.) My problems with math started when lessons slid into more abstract territory, right around freshman year of high school. Trigonometry, calculus,...

Effective website copywriting isn’t created in a Effective website copywriting isn’t created in a vacuum. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s not just words that “sound good” or match your personality, cleverly arranged in a pretty website design. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Effective website copywriting is all about understanding…. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✅ how your website fits into your marketing strategy as a whole ✅ who’s likely to be visiting the site (and why) ✅ what other websites readers may be visiting as they make their decision ✅ how readers should ideally flow through your site to get the main message (and what that message should be) ✅ what action we want readers to take to get them closer to becoming a paying client (if they’re a good fit) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ My “triple-threat” approach considers website messaging as a crucial and not-separate part of my clients’ websites. And that is a pretty good summary of how I get results. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What part of your process do people tend to "forget" about? #websitesthatwork #copywritingforcreatives #websiteservices #websitecopywriter
Did you know that web design & web copy cost about Did you know that web design & web copy cost about the same? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Each somewhere in the $3k to $8k range for a custom site for a service-based business. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So... how do you decide which to invest in when you're launching a new site? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Personally, I think... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ...You don't. You don't decide between the two. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Does this mean that you should plan on spending about $10k for a new site, including copy & design? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Vague, confusing, or cliched copy will drag down even the coolest of designs. And unprofessional design that lacks strategy will drag down even the best messaging. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ➡️ Investing in professional copywriting and design protects BOTH investments. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But if $10k is cost-prohibitive for you…. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the meantime, I'm not saying do NOTHING. But I don't recommend going all-in on custom design or custom copy if $10k is out of the question for you. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Instead, look for semi-custom or DIY options to get your website in the best possible shape it can be, without the high price tag. This will strengthen your business and ultimately support you in growing to a place where you can grab "the works." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ FIND SOME SEMI-CUSTOM SOLUTIONS IN THE COMMENTS :) ⬇️ . . . . . . #websitelaunch #websitecopywriter #websitedesigner #websitestrategy #websiteforsmallbusiness #websiteforcoaches
