Web Content Writing for Web sites
Attention-grabbing Web Content Writing for Web sites in combination with smart Editing and SEO Publishing are definitely key to our online success when it comes to getting our websites or blogs to occupy Google Top 10 positions. Just as the creation of a smart Script like Semiomantics and its knowledgeable setup, configuration and implementation in the invisible background of the website, Web Content Writing for Web sites that make it to the top of search engines and then captivate readers and potential clients and buyers is a special skill if not a profession in its own right.
Web Content Writing for Web sites
Web Content Writing for Web sites differs from normal writing practices as we know them from printed copy… books, catalogues, newspapers, magazines etc … where a lot of emphasis is placed on our literary qualities as authors, writers, journalists…, our writing style, the way we express ourselves and are in command of the language we’re using.
I am and will always be an absolute fan of a good ‘real’ book that I can hold in my hands, feel the precious cover – binding a book is something I did myself long ago – feel the pages and touch illustrations and photos with my finger tips as though they could come alive. . .
However, there are books one loves and wants to keep and there is information one needs when doing research for a project for example – and there it’s just an immaterial, intellectual transfer of data that’s needed … and for this the Internet – and with it today’s brilliant Kindle – are just perfect!
Writing for the Internet
However, as everything on the Internet is fast-paced and rather surface-oriented, few people really read and take contents to the depth it may deserve – Internet readers skip.
So what we need to focus on from a web content perspective when writing for the Internet is to…
- think before you write to start with: what do you want your post to trigger in the reader? And what reader? What target audience?
- be original, concise and succint… and if it’s not important to say, don’t say it… noone has time for that;
- allow readers to scan your posts by providing pulling, clearly defined headlines;
- write in a simple, conversational style;
- personalize it;
- be informative and contextual – always with the readers’ interests in mind (what’s in it for me) and then, most importantly:
- besides writing for the reader, write for the search engine spyders – yeah, that’s tricky but efficient!
Professional Style
A professional style has to do with an
- aesthetic layout,
- good, readible fonts and
- harmonious colors -
which are obviously provided by the website owner in case you are taking on a copywriting job – unless you are doing it all by yourself.
Pictures and Images
We all know… a picture tells a thousand stories… meaning if you can integrate original pictures or images that talk, you can write less with the same if not a vastly better effect or result.
Look at the image above and literally feel the drama… what would you want to add to this?
Also… be inspired by modern advertising and movies: how much is being said? How much is being shown? The Internet is becoming increasingly media and interaction oriented and you are well advised to reflect this dynamic evolution and trend within your posts and articles.
Web Content Writing Services
Despite a so-called information overflow, there isn’t that much original, good stuff out there, contrary to what one might assume and in relation to the scary masses of individuals writing and posting every single day. Twitter reduces it to a few words – and with explosive success! Is it that little we actually have to say? Ooops, no side-tracking – back to the topic here!
But do the exercise and go to Google Top 10 and see how long it takes you to find something of real content when researching a certain keyword or topic. One has to wade through masses of undigested nonsense until one eventually gets to the real stuff… and then it’s the learner’s or reader’s paradise – right?
There are many Web Content Writing Services out there and there is place for everybody.
So if you have a brand-new Website or Blog – or one that has been around for a while but without much success and probably not even updated and properly maintained… – and writing is not your business as something else is, actually what the Blog should help you with in terms of online presence… who should you ask? Who could you outsource to?
I believe, personal contacts and connections based on a good reputation and authority on the Internet make all the difference – in other words Trust based on facts. And then of course:
- a proven track record of good, solid writing and publishing – including captivating web graphics;
- Reachability;
- Punctuality;
- Reliability;
- Precise targeting;
- Visibility on Google Top 10 and
- Competitive prices.
