October 29th, 2009 Andy No comments

Fun

Dr. Seuss’ books are fun to read. They’re funny, too, but that’s not the same thing. Fun to read material that is entertaining and effortless for the readers, a very good standard for all writing.

Lyrical

Dr. Seuss’ books written in verse. Of course they’re lyrical. However, this will exceed the silly rhymes. It’s the sound and rhythm with a word, like a favorite tune, you do not mind hearing repeated. Good writing of all varieties is look to the eyes and ears.

value

Children have short attention spans. Dr. Seuss know how to tell a story without unnecessary detours. Every word counts. Good advice for all those who write copy because children are not the only one with the short attention spans.

Kenangan

This is the litmus test for all the writing. Do readers take something that? Has invested their time well? The Cat in the Hat is a story about having fun, even on rainy days. Now a useful read.

A Copywriting Lesson from Dr. Seuss part 1

October 26th, 2009 Andy No comments

Finding inspiration for the next marketing communication? Try the children’s bookshelves.

Dr. Seuss has entertained young (and old) viewers for almost 50 years with titles such as The Cat in the Hat, Hop on Pop and Green Eggs and Ham.

Reason why he books remain so popular says something about what makes for good writing (and reading), or that does not matter where the audience is.

Nouns and verbs

Not have a hold of a strong move such as noun-verb combinations. If the train is, nouns and verbs will be the engine. Adjectives, adverbs and other parts of speech make the train more and more slowly. Dr. Seuss’ the strong engine pulling the load of a fixed light moving down the track.

Many Period

A byproduct of the use of foreign words is shorter sentence length. A lot of time. Paradox, the more short-long increase reading speed and understanding. Dr. Seuss, as well as many children’s authors, is the champion of the short sentence.

Imagination

Albert Einstein said, “The gift of fantasy meant more than my talent for absorbing positive knowledge.” If not for the imagination, there would be no Cat in the Hat and no Dr.. Seuss. Imagination is the beginning copywriting because first there must be ideas or concepts.

The mood of the readers will certainly affect how he views a certain product or service. If you do not take good care with the emotional side of your customers with the writing, consider him gone. Each mood is influenced by many factors, although it is mainly internal, external factors can also affect mood and he was fortunate enough to read what the individual is one of them.

First, you must ‘in the mood’ to write. Good copies are mostly written by the author of good or enlightened with what inspired them to write about. Content authors must ensure that they are in a special mood because the opposite result will be a very bad copy. A reader may also be ‘taken’ by an emphatic copy written superbly which would eventually end up making the reader get what you offer.

One thing you can do to achieve that is to utilize emotional appeal to readers. Attempt to integrate personal articles such as “you”, “us”, and “we” more often, trying to get visitors who may be involved. Avoid becoming too passive as it would prevent you from making a connection or relationship with the target readers.

Keep your readers or customers engaged with your site. Make them think and interact by asking, giving riddles or trivia. All this makes the air of friendliness for potential customers, and after you make them feel comfortable reading, they are more likely to respond positively to you.

About content

Now that you have your keywords and phrases that you will need time to plan about the general thrust and content of what the content should look like.

In general, the main idea of writing this is for content to be able to give useful information for visitors on your site. You write, especially for readers, the human visitor to your site, and about the products and services you offer. Which is a secondary idea to provide the search engine information, so that they can properly and accurately index your site in accordance with the right category, so anyone who would like to search for something in particular, through the use of search engines, will eventually find what he needs. In other words, your content must be customer oriented and friendly search engine.

For that, you need to plan how well you do copywriting. All text must be able to give them what they need and want to know about the products and services that you have. Therefore, it is recommended that you read a lot of information about the subject product or service before you write the actual copy. The goal is to become very knowledgeable about the product, so you can explore all the possibilities and play with the strengths and weaknesses and write everything that is needed.

One important thing to remember is to write unique content. Copying content is not only plagiarism and cheating but is also a serious violation that can cause pain that is punishment under the law Rights Reserved. More and more Intellectual Property Rights watch dogs are reporting cases of content stealing and have gained a few reasons over the years. Major search engines are now penalizing sites which illegally obtain content from other sources. Including fixed penalties put the site under the black, the type of “not permanent, for the site” for the crawlers. Lawsuits and cases about web content writing are now increasing every day, with some countries to make laws on Intellectual Property Rights. The risk that new akan too great if you plagiarize and copy content. So make sure you quote or place endnotes when you choose to use other parts of the content.

And last, your content must be written in plain, simple, and natural language, so it does not damage the natural flow of words that you write. Very words and technical terms should be very technical for discussion, and should be discouraged to use the internet every day.

Your keywords should specifically target (1) the product or service you offer, and (2) what types of people when they use search engines to find products and services such as you. Examples of good akan when writing content for the company selling kilns for bricks, you do not need to optimize the keywords “to burn the bricks” if most people actually type “brick oven” to search such as when their equipment. This term is useful to optimize the kiln when most people choose to type oven since a few if there is no search term will dry up.

You must also identify and discover various words and terms that are closely related to the keywords or keyphrases. Some key-terms and keyphrases are very intimately with other people that one group with the association of certain areas while others choose to associate with others. One example of good akan Cosmetic Surgery. Cosmetic Surgery is a medical procedure, thus, can be regarded as something related to drugs and surgery, when it also correct to say that it is related with cosmetics and beauty. Since the field of medicine, surgery, cosmetics and beauty popular areas, both to optimize the surgical and cosmetic aspects of the keyphrase Cosmetic Surgery would bring more keyword hits for searches from individuals of both the spectrum.

One thing to consider is the local term for an equal or your products or services when optimizing with key words or phrases. An “elevator” in the United States will be the “lift” in England, a “truck” in the United States would be “trucks” in the UK, and the list goes on. When trying to sell a product or service that is very big for the demographically different society, you must optimize for the two groups each of which will likely find more familiar local term. Even better, you can create different sites for the demographic group that is different, especially with the change of keywords and phrases, allowing you to both of them for food.

In addition, it will be wise to consider placing regional information or regional key words or phrases. Regional integration of information with the keywords and keyphrases enables more users search more determined to visit the Web site. You will also benefit from limited competition due to the specified search. Most people find the products and services on the internet would prefer to find what they need locally, so adding local information, of course, will help you and your potential clients. Another benefit is that you can add another keyword, which is the area for information that is keyword or keyword phrase. For example, rather than just have “plumbing services” add “Atlanta” before ‘plumbing services’. This will give the edge over competitors because it will reduce competition profoundly.

About words

The above-mentioned tools will help you decide which keywords or phrases that can be used.

One keyword that is very difficult if not impossible to compete with because it will have a more general scope compared with keyphrases. For example, if you try to write the content for a company that sells educational toys, choosing keywords such as “toys” this is a stupid idea since search engines will give around one hundred million hits for a particular keyword, while changes to the keyphrase such as “toys for students “or” educational toys “would only have about five million hits. This means that web searchers will actually go to your website akan 100,000,000:1 under the keyword “toys” while choosing keyphrase “educational toys” means the possibility of 5,000,000:1, greatly increase your chance of being visited. In addition, customers are more likely to narrow the search to use since only one type or word search akan means dibombardir with information that does not want a lot of that they need, cost more time and energy.
