Don’t Add an Extra Helping to Your Already Full Plate—Use Web Content Development



Don’t let this happen to you!

In an effort to cut corners, many Web site owners decide against using a professional writer to develop their web content. These business owners have made the commitment to develop their own content, only to discover that the everyday responsibilities of running a business prevented them from doing much writing. The result was a Web site ready to be populated, which sat virtually empty for months.


You’ve worked hard to make your business a success, and it’s time to reach a wider audience by adding a presence on the Web. The last thing you want to do, as a hard-working business owner, is saddle yourself with the daunting task of writing scintillating text to populate your new Web site.



Great news! You don’t have to!


Work with a professional writer and avoid having to choose between seeing an empty Web site and agonizing over how best to get your ideas across to potential clients.


I understand that Web users view online text differently than they do printed material. The word “surfer” has come to mean users who rapidly sample a series of web pages. In Faster, Smarter Web Page Creation Mary Hillhallon writes, “If a web page doesn’t grab a user quickly—within 10 seconds (according to most usability studies)—the user will very likely move on to another page (or another site altogether).” [1]


I will work with you to mold your information into eye-catching and interesting text, written specifically for an online audience. The results are definitely more than a reworking of an existing brochure or other printed advertising.


Relevant keywords on each page ensure good Search Engine Optimization but, rest assured, your text won’t be just strings of keywords. Your writer includes them without letting them clog up the creative expression of your ideas.


Take the responsibility off your shoulders and let a professional writer develop the text for your new Web site—you’ll be glad you did in the long run.
