Your Way with Words is Key to Increased Website Traffic
You have to have a way with words in order to increase the traffic to your website. Sometimes, the most intelligent people in the world can have a problem communicating with others. When those intelligent people or great business persons develop a website that would blow your mind with great inspirations and benefits, they may not know exactly how to get their message across to their target audience. Learning to communicate with the right words to get your point across clearly and without rambling is an important skill that takes some time to acquire. You can take the time to learn communication skills or you can hire a consultant to help you get your point across to others. Sometimes the simplest things are right in front of you.
When writing to produce more website traffic, you will want to make your website easy for others to read. It is better to write in laymen terms than in long scientific or technical mumbo jumbo. You want people to be able to read the pages on your website without getting a headache and without having to refer to a dictionary. Visitors should not have to learn how to translate your website in order to understand what you are trying to say. A hard to read or hard to understand website will be abandoned quickly.
When writing, be sure all content is relevant to your website. Only write the information that readers are looking for and that is relevant to your website and products. When you begin writing your first paragraph, try starting the paragraph with your conclusion. By getting to the point right off the bat, this could grab a reader's attention and keep them reading. Keep your paragraphs and sentences short and to the point. Readers do not enjoy long, wordy web pages that take too much time to read through. Avoid writing in a passive voice. Readers want action words and a strong voice to tell them what to do. Keep your writing in a steady flow. Always read your writing aloud and listen to the flow. In addition, reading aloud can help catch those nasty little typos that will drive people away from your site. Proofread your writing before posting it to your website.
In conclusion, I offer this for your perusal. How often in conversation do people use words poorly and even incorrectly? Think about it. I can understand it if you'd rather not. It's so common that if you were to really think about it for any length of time you'd never get through the conversation. More specifically though, think about how often people in general when talking about money refer to being rich or being wealthy. They are not the same thing although many people don't really make the distinction. The distinction that I make is that 'rich' could last for only a day but 'wealthy' tends to last a helluva lot longer than that. Which one do you want to be?
