Micro copy: How to make a big impact with small copy

So, you've finally finished writing your client's copy.

The homepage is 'Wow,' the content pages are engaging and you've done just the right amount of SEO to keep those pesky Google hummingbirds singing.

But you've forgotten something.

That's right — your microcopy.

We know, we know. Microcopy isn't sexy. And it's certainly not the kind of copy people rave about. In fact, if microcopy were at a party it would be lurking by the door, pointing out where the toilets are, while sales copy was busy showing off to the crowd.

But these teeny tiny snippets of text can have a huge impact on the success of your site. So in this week's podcast, we're going to tell you how to write awesome microcopy.

Tune in to learn:

  • What microcopy is
  • Why it's important on your website
  • Great examples of microcopy
  • How microcopy can help persuade and reassure customers
  • Kate and Belinda's top micro copywriting tips

Question for the listeners:
