Synopsis

More actionable tips to help you build a website that actually works

AI tools make it easier than ever to start writing. But it’s still your job as a smart business owner to understand what good copy and web design look like to make sure the words and layouts you end up with on your site will resonate with your prospects.

This is the second book in the Making Your Website Work series, created after the first volume received tons of positive feedback from readers who called it "one of the most useful books" and "a trusted advisor" they kept coming back to.

If you're looking to build a website that grows your business without getting a marketing degree or slogging through vague theoretic advice, you're in the right place.

This book does NOT teach you every copywriting formula, make you memorize design rules, or ramble on about theory. Instead, it dives into real website problems that service providers—freelancers and big companies alike—actually face, and shows you how to fix them with practical tips.

Among other things, you’ll learn:

• The #1 thing on your website you need to fix asap
• How to spot (and fix) a weak unique value proposition
• A 60-second change that turns your copy from "meh" to "wow"
• A fail-proof way to give your message a solid structure
• How to tell if your web page needs to be redesigned

Who is this book for?

This book is NOT for you if:

• You sell products, not services. These tips are for service-provider websites: freelancers, consultancies, agencies, contractors, etc.
• Your website is already attracting a decent amount of leads. If that’s the case, a proper professional audit is the next best step.

***

This book IS for you if you're:

• A business owner who manages your own website. You'll learn to write more effective copy and avoid design choices that hurt your message.
• A copywriter looking to sharpen your skills and protect your words from bad design. You’ll learn how to spot issues and make a solid case to clients and designers.
• A web designer who wants to build sites that not only look good, but actually convert.
• A business owner who is planning to get someone to create their website for them, be it a human copywriter, a web designer agency, or a generative AI tool like ChatGPT. You’ll learn how to spot ineffective copy and sloppy design and how to give your human and/or robot helper clear instructions to improve it so your website actually converts
