Website Copywriting That Grabs Your Prospects' Attention by the Eyeballs
I write website copy for clients in a range of industries. From single page value propositions to entire websites, I have the processes and the experience to ensure the success of your project.
What Makes Good Website Copywriting?
‘Good copywriting is well-researched. If the writer is able to put themselves in the audience’s shoes, then that makes a big difference and it really comes across in the text. Empathy is important too. If you’re able to dig down into what a customer’s pain point are and what issues they’re having, you can then present the product or service as the answer. And you can then build in the persuasive elements to encourage them to take action.’

Website Copywriting Services
Your website copy needs to grab your prospects’ attention. It needs to keep them interested, make them want what you’re offering and get them to take action. I write effective web copy that works. Good website copy delivers an effective message in a persuasive light. It appeals to a specific audience and has the power to influence. It’s a great investment in your business.
People don’t read on the internet in the same way they read on paper. When we visit a webpage, our eyes tend to be drawn to images first, then we read captions and scan sub-headings before reading the body copy. We’re conditioned to click hyperlinks and jump between pages, so it takes a very persuasive page of copywriting to keep your visitors focused on the content.

Here's What You Need to Know About Website Copywriting...
- The most popular button on the internet is the ‘back’ button which means that if your copy isn’t instantly engaging, people will look for your products or services elsewhere.
- People are becoming savvier to what good copy looks like. You need to impress quickly because it only takes 3 seconds for someone to make up their mind whether they’re interested in what you’re selling online.
- Web copywriting requires an active voice. Simply listing your products and services isn’t enough – your content needs to create a sense of urgency and clearly outline the benefits to potential customers.

How I Work
Before I take on any web copywriting project, I like to get to know the client first. I’ll arrange an initial meeting (by telephone, email, Skype, or face-to-face) to learn more about your business and what you hope to achieve from working with me.
Once we’ve agreed a brief, I’ll create a project schedule outlining our copy milestones. From there, I’ll send you a draft of the first page to approve. I’ll carry over any feedback to remaining pages and send them over in batches to approve as we go.
We provide website copywriting services to clients in a range of industries including:
How Much Does Website Copywriting Cost?
Every website copywriting project is different. However, I believe in being as up-front as possible when it comes to pricing. My day rate is £500 and I provide a per-project price, so you’ll know exactly how much the work will cost up front. Some of the factors that I consider when pricing for website copywriting services include:
- The number of web pages that need written
- The number of words required per page
- How much research is involved
- Whether tone of voice guidelines are required
- Whether on-page SEO should be considered
- How many revisions are needed
- The project deadline
To provide some context, a small website copywriting project might look like this:
Initial briefing session: After completing our briefing form, we’ll arrange a one hour phone call or Skype session discuss the specifics of the project in more detail.
Research: Research can involve conducting a brief competitor analysis, creating tone of voice guidelines and researching the marketplace.
Writing: Home page, About page, Service pages x3
Amendments: Typically, we offer two rounds of revisions per page. However, we always aim to please and are usually happy to make additional tweaks at no extra cost until you’re happy with the copy.
The cost for a website copywriting project with this scope would cost £2,500. The price would include all ongoing correspondence with the client, editing, proofreading and amendments. I’d send over each page individually to gather your feedback, adjust and approve as we go. Typically, I’d deliver all pages in two weeks from the agreed start date, assuming good client communication.
