Some clients like to learn a bit more before investing…so below there’s heaps of information!
This is also what’s known as a pillar page, which helps for SEO. The goal is when people type “website copywriting” into a search engine, this is one of the first pages that comes up because it’s chock full of good information.
What You Need to Know About Website Copywriting
What You Need to Know About Website Copywriting
…And More!
Website copywriting varies based on your goals.
For example, a sales page has one main goal: get people who are the right fit to buy the product or service.
An about page’s main focus is to build trust, credibility, and inform readers of the organization’s values (and vibes!).
The current page you’re reading has several goals:
- Make potential clients aware of my approach to website copywriting
- Give them a link to click if they want to reach out to me about website copywriting
- Educate people on website copywriting in general, even if they’re not planning on being a client
- Help search engines understand that I know what I’m talking about when it comes to website copywriting. This means I’ll appear higher on search engines when someone types in “website copywriting”.
So this page has several functions…informing you if you’re an interested client, education you if you’re not, and helping me increase my credibility both to humans and the search engines.
This page’s education section is longer because it makes my service page become what’s known as a “pillar page.”
So…Um…Exactly What Is Website Copywriting?
Website copywriting is the art (and strategy) of writing the words people see on your website—from your homepage headlines to your service descriptions. Unlike general content writing, website copywriting is focused on conversions: turning visitors into “leads”, and leads into clients.
Copywriting also acts as a filter to make sure you get the right clients coming to you.
For example, I chose to make my site a bit friendly, because I prefer to communicate immediately that I’m someone who is a pleasure to work with on website copywriting. And I want to attract clients who appreciate that aspect of my work style. Others prefer to come across as flawlessly professionally, and would prefer slide decks to smiles. Still others may want to lean into artsy, whimsical, or no-nonsense.
How is Website Copywriting Different from “Regular” Writing?
Copywriting → Persuades and drives a specific action.
For example, you go on a sales page, you’re persuaded to buy something.
Content writing → Informs and nurtures audiences, but doesn’t necessarily aim to get them to take a specific action.
For example, a blog that share’s the opinions of the company’s founder on their website.
Both are important, but they serve different purposes. Strong businesses use them together to attract, educate, and convert.
And there is overlap…if in a blog post you ask readrs to sign up for your product…that’s also copywriting!
There are many other types of writing, too. Writing can be purely therapeutic for the writer and the reader. It can be art, it can be science…and like most things in life…there’s overlap in all!
Why Website Copywriting Matters for SEO
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is what brings people to your site when they’re typing questions into Google, Bing, Yahoo, Brave, or my personal favorite which is both privacy-focused and plants trees every time you search, Ecosia.
Not every website needs SEO.
If you’re using your website just as a way to have a professional way for people to know what you’re about…and you get your clients from personal referrals, phone calls, and sometimes even email marketing…you may not need to invest any time or money into SEO.
But if you’re looking to expand beyond your current client finding methods, it could be something to consider.
Not every webpage needs SEO.
You can have pages on your website which aren’t “SEO-optimized” and that’s totally fine. You can start and pick one or two pages as a starting point, and build from there when and if it makes sense.
But many elements of SEO still are great to have on your website.
Search engines prefer sites that load quickly, are easy to understand and navigate, and provide real value (ie. not just walls and walls of text written by AI). Their algorithms also prefer sites that have many other credible sites linking back to them (called “backlinks”) which shows you’re delivering value.
So even if you’re not planning to get most of your clients from search engines, it’s still a good idea to follow some SEO best practices.
But, SEO stuff is always changing. Which is why it’s good to hire someone who actually follows the industry in detail…so you don’t have to!
The Bare Minimum for SEO
While SEO changes all the time, these often make a difference when it comes to the words on your page:
-
Keywords integrated naturally
Using the words and phrases your audience is actually searching for — but in a way that feels smooth and human, not stuffed or robotic. -
Clear headings (H1, H2, H3) that organize ideas
Headings act like signposts for both readers and search engines. They break content into sections and help Google understand what your page is about. -
Internal links to relevant pages
Linking to other pages on your site helps visitors explore more easily and shows search engines how your content is connected. -
Engaging, readable paragraphs
Short, scannable paragraphs make your content easier to digest — which keeps readers on the page longer (a positive ranking signal). -
Meta titles and descriptions
These are the snippets that show up in Google search results. A strong meta description can increase clicks and tell search engines your page is relevant. - External links to credible sources
Referencing reputable sites (like industry leaders or studies) signals trustworthiness and adds authority to your content.
All of this signals to search engines that your site is valuable—and worth ranking higher.
Common Mistakes 😬
To Avoid in Website Copywriting
-
Writing for yourself, not your audience
It’s easy to focus on what you want to say instead of what your visitors need to hear. The best copy speaks directly to your audience’s goals, questions, and pain points. -
Using jargon instead of clear language
Industry buzzwords might sound impressive, but they often confuse readers. Simple, direct language builds trust faster — and converts better. -
Forgetting to guide readers to take action
Every page should point to the next step (whether it’s booking a call, downloading a guide, or making a purchase). Without clear calls-to-action, visitors are more likely to leave without engaging. -
Stuffing keywords in awkwardly
SEO matters, but overloading your copy with repetitive keywords makes it clunky to read — and can even hurt rankings. Keywords should blend naturally into sentences. -
Having too much (or too little) text on key pages
A wall of text overwhelms readers, while too little leaves them with unanswered questions. Balanced copy gives enough detail to build trust, but stays concise enough to keep people moving. (Note that this particular page has a lot more text than a sales page would have because the goal is sharing knowledge).

Tips for Website Copy That Converts
Here’s the basics if you’re going to write for your website in a way that gets people signed up, buying, or moving in that general direction:
- Decide on your tone – formal, professional, casual, fun, friendly?
- Speak directly to your ideal client
- Keep sentences short, punchy, and scannable
- Lead with benefits, not just features…make it clear WHY your product, service, or organization is a fit for them
- Use calls-to-action that feel inviting, not pushy
- Review your copy out loud (if it sounds unnatural, adjust it!)
- Ask someone else to read your website copy, especially if they’re part of your target audience
