What you deem valuable information could be very different from what others consider to be valuable information on the web.

Both SEO and Copywriting are important but I see them as two different fields used to two different ends. Good SEO is fodder for search engine robots. Search engine robots have never spent a penny on any product or service to my knowledge. Yes it's important to get folks to your website and that's where savvy SEO comes it but... Good copywriting should have a different focus altogether. Copywriting conveys your sales message and persuades real people to a desired action. With the increased focus on LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing), one could argue for SEO. However I'd like to suggest that the goal of LSI is to extract the real meaning from intended content so a naturally well-written sales letter should also naturally rank high for keywords. Yes, make sure your web pages are search engine optimized, but I maintain it is more important to optimize your pages for maximum customer impact - i.e. getting the desired results. This can be done by testing your sales pages. The upside is testing increases your bottom line no matter where your traffic comes from. God bless, Andy Hi,

While working for a small agency, I hired an SEO copywriter who basically stuffed keyword randomly throughout a website. It read like crap, we almost lost the client,and we eventually reverted back to the original copy, which didn't generate any traffic or leads. If I had to do it again, I'd hire an SEO person AND a talented writer to work together. This report on web writers is bang-on.

I once hired an SEO copywriter who added keywords to my existing web content. While my traffic increased almost 30% within a month, the copy did not read well. At the end of the day, all the extra traffic didn't generate any additional sales for me. It worked with the search engines, but not the visitors. The moral of the story I suppose is to make sure the person you hire writes for visitors as well. Otherwise, it's all a waste of time and effort -- and dollars!
