Effective website words = the difference between success and failure.
If you are creating a new website, are the words holding you up?
The website developer has created a professional looking design.
They are tapping their fingers, waiting for you to send them the words.
However, you are busy, running your business / doing your job.
Perhaps you have tried doing the writing, only to find that it is somewhat time consuming.
Your webcopy (website words) must get attention, tell a story, answer questions and transmit an emotional message.
In addition, the webcopy should communicate benefits and generate sales enquiries / sales.
The words must be easy to read and they must get the message across.
