How to Become the Best, most Highly Skilled Copywriter you can Be for your Website

Creating one-of-a-kind amazing copywriting for a website is a skill surprisingly more difficult to master than many imagine. Even so, it’s arguably the single most important skill you can have in ensuring your website’s success.

Think of all the writing a website and brand really has to have – blog posts, social media posts, email marketing, communication with customers and company stakeholders, etc. If you’re not committed to becoming a better writer, hiring a highly skilled copywriter, or developing better marketing copywriting, you may be unknowingly sabotaging your business.

A business writer in this capacity should have the skill to sell. Yes, you want to entertain, educate, establish brand awareness, and build an audience, however ultimately, all of this comes down to one’s ability to sell. If nobody’s buying, no product, service, or company’s going to stay in business. As if all this wasn’t complicated enough, how you write ads for a search engine will be different from what you write for Facebook or Twitter, and that will be different from how blog posts are written, and this will be different from how you build a landing page.

Enough with the intimidation factor – let’s get started on how writers write websites. Really, the only thing you need to be concerned with as a writer is knowing your audience and writing for them. If you know your audience, you’ve won half the battle. Their needs should take center-stage in how you write. The content you write should appeal to them, adopting their conversational tone of voice, solving a problem they commonly encounter, answering questions they have, and/or providing them value in some way.

After you have a decent grasp on where you audience’s needs are at, the next thing is taking time to make your copy the best it can be. Although some of the most successful landing pages out there can take hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars to write, when done right, a landing page can generate millions in return. Crafting each word and section header, every image, chart, design, CTA, and word has to count. If you’re working on something as important as a landing page, you need to take the time to weigh every word. Perfect the vocabulary and tone.

Now, if you’re working on a series of blogs or articles for your website, you don’t necessarily need to invest the same amount of time into each and every word as you would with a landing page. Don’t go overboard with the amount of time it takes to write your own blog. In all likelihood, you should be spending more time coming up with high-performance, unique, and relevant topics.

An alternative to doing it yourself, of course, is to hire a professional copywriter for your website. Although some are wonderful writers, a lot of them disappointingly are not. They also are not oftentimes familiarized with your audience and, combined with a lacklustre quality of writing, aren’t generally worth hiring. That said, if you find one who does write well, they can be an asset!
