Instant Internet Business

Time and again I come across websites that are promoting products that it is plainly obvious the developer of the site has no real knowledge of. Sometimes what disappoints is the clumsiness of writing (grammar, spelling and descriptive style). In marketing terms this is equivalent to professional suicide. It is a fact that when people visit a site they weigh it up in an instant and hit the back button if the content fails to match their inquiry or gives a weak impression. The latter can of course be put down to a slow loading page or clumsy graphic design but it is often caused by something that is easily avoided - poor copy integrity.

The integrity of the copy relies on the knowledge and enthusiasm of its author. Any written contextual information on any website marketing any product, affiliate linked or otherwise needs to convey those qualities in the copy. Most people when they read text on the Web do it rapidly, scanning the salient points and very quickly assimilating an impression of its quality, accuracy and relevance to their search enquiry. If this does not match with their expectations, then they will leave and leave fast. That is the nature of the way people surf the Web today.

To avoid this happening to your visitors there are several things you can do. The written text should not be too small or too LOUD. It should be grammatically correct and neither too formal or too laid back in style. It should carry with it sufficient technical details without boring the reader and it must be concise and not too verbose. The writing required will need to be a kind of Web equivalent to the typists shorthand. In other words avoid too many unnecessary words. The best thing you can do, however, is to project your enthusiasm for your products. This can be accomplished by expressing your detailed knowledge of them and include too specific features that you can endorse yourself from 'your own experience'. If you wish to offer your visitors fully specified details provide a link too it. The individual visitor can then decide quickly if they wish to do so or to remain on the current page scanning the broader content on offer.

Ideally you will already possess the necessary intimacy of knowledge of your products and writing your text should be a breeze. If you do not, admit it to yourself and set out to acquire that information. Read up about the products. Weigh up the pros and cons and learn which features are the products major selling points. Return to your site and update from a position of knowledge and insight. This will I guarantee you, make a huge difference to the way your site is 'read' and of course to the length of time your visitors stay to peruse its contents. Long term, a well expressed, concise yet informative, set of contextually linked copy will lead to more sales.

Oh, and never forget to tell your visitors what to do, i.e buy here, click here, go to shop etc. at relevant places on your product page. People like to be led to the till, not left floundering looking for an assistant!

My articles are always focused on subjects that I have experienced or am in the process of experiencing. I offer my views from this standpoint and do not purport to be an expert. I do hope though that a part or a whole of anything that I write may be of interest or help to others.
