5 Steps to Get Great Content
Make your message clear & fun to read with amazing web copy
Go to Wix.com from your computer to start writing great content.
Before you start writing, you need to ask yourself some questions about who you’re writing for and what challenges they face.
Know Your Audience
Take a look at what Mandy the wedding planner asks herself about her audience:
Who are you writing for?
Couples who want a unique, unforgettable wedding
What are their challenges?
Budget, logistics, general stress
What are they looking for on your site?
Services, testimonials, price list, contact info
Answer the ‘So What?’
Once you understand who your audience is, the next step is to answer how you can make their lives easier.
Now that you’ve put yourself in your audience’s shoes, you can start drafting your copy. Your website should sound like you, so write as you speak - you can always tighten up the text later. Imagine that you’re having an informal conversation with your clients.
Say It, Write It
Keep It Short & Sweet
Here are some tips to keep in mind when you’re editing your text:
Use bullet points to break down long lists of ideas
Introduce sections with brief, fun titles that’ll draw attention (think BuzzFeed!)
Stick to one key message for each section
Keep sentences short and focused
You don’t have to go at it alone. Send your finished copy to a trusted friend for an honest review. Ask them if it’s clear, interesting, and most of all, fun to read! An outsider’s perspective is a great way to get an unbiased second-opinion on your text (and catch those pesky typos).
