The whole point of improving content on your site is to get the user to do what you want them to do. But copywriting for web sites is still misunderstood - simply throwing words on the page is not enough.
Successful website copywriting has three imperatives that must be followed constantly and consistently. Each page of the web site requires:
1. Writing for search engines
2. Writing for the user
3. Writing for the desired action to take place
Writing for search engines requires the judicious use of search phrases: for the user, the information they require; and action calls should funnel the user towards your business objectives.
