Copywriting Explained

Ever wondered what a copywriter really does?  Most people have heard of a copywriter but I’m always getting asked what does a copywriter actually do and why should I use one for my website?  So here are the answers to a few common questions about being a copywriter.

What does a copywriter do & what is copywriting?

A copywriter is someone who writes marketing materials and content.  Copywriting covers any marketing text that is designed to engage, persuade and inform customers about your products and services.  Copywriting includes a whole array of marketing communications from the words on your website to social media posts, brochures, PR articles and email sequences etc.

What is the difference between copywriting and content writing?

Whilst copywriting generally refers to marketing communications that are trying to get clients to take some form of action (eg download a brochure, book a free consultation, buy now etc), content writing is generally more informational in nature. Examples of content include blogs, how-to articles, editorials, product manuals, product packaging and instructions etc.  Here at Colette Chorley Copywriting & Marketing, we do it all from persuasive copywriting to more informative styles of content.

Your website is often your biggest marketing asset and acts as your sales force 24/7.  No matter how great your website looks, if it’s not being found in Google searches it will not help your business grow.  How your content is structured, how many keywords and words are on each page can dramatically affect your online visibility.  We know how to structure your content and use keywords to maximise your on-page SEO and help your website get found in online searches.
