One thing that always gives you away is the quality of your writing. If your content contains a lot of spelling and grammar mistakes, your visitors will wonder how much you care about quality. They will relate what they see to what they will expect in your offer, regardless of what you are selling.
Spelling and grammar are two of the biggest problems many web site owners face when it comes to website content writing.
Here are some things that you can do to make sure your website does not turn people off by its poorly written content.
1. Use a spellchecker to catch your typos
Many people do not do this. Most spelling errors can be corrected automatically with this feature, but it can also make mistakes of its own. For instance, some words can be spelled differently depending on the context. An example of this is words with apostrophes, like your and you're. Depending on how you misspelled the word, the spellchecker might correct for the wrong word.
2. Use a grammar check tool to catch illogical sentences
While these are not perfect, they will catch many obvious errors. If your grammar is not very good, you might not recognize when the tool misses something. You cannot rely solely on the tool to correct everything. If you have problems with grammar, there's very little you can do to catch these errors which leaves you at a disadvantage.
3. Read your checked copy again
read through your content to see if you see anything that doesn't make sense. You should always do this, not just because the tools are not perfect, but because once they have done their job, you need to make sure everything still makes sense.
4. Have someone with good grammar and spelling skills...
An expert will be able to make certain your copy is correct and offer help in fixing any that remain.
Even professional writers can make mistakes and so rely on grammar and spelling tools, too. They also make a point of reading through their final material to catch errors, but also to check for how the material flows after it has been corrected.
Show your visitors you are serious
Your visitors need to recognize that you are serious about your business. Poor copy will give them the impression that anything you sell will also be of poor quality. As a result, you can lose sales.
Don't let your website content writing skills stand in your way. Use the tools available and get help from experts, and you will benefit your business and your visotors.
