Write Reviews to Increase Sales

To increase sales, instead of displaying banners or ads on your website, write a review. On your main page, display a short intriguing paragraph with a link to your full review. For example, this is the text that was displayed on the main page of Web-Source.net which was a lead in to the main review of “Make Your Site Sell.”

Better Writing, Better Business: 4 Web Copy Reviews

A few days ago I spoke with Garrett to discuss some ideas I had for new articles, and he told me that he had countless requests for web site reviews. It seemed like a great opportunity to share my opinion on specific sites so I offered to write some reviews in lieu of an article. However, once I had a chance to look at the sites, I noticed that all the requests expressed more concern for finding the right key words and meta tags than they did for writing energetic, effective copy that attracts.

I particularly love the site reviews…

Dear Garrett …

I really appreciate the opportunity to voice my views.

1) First and foremost, the thing I like about the way you handle WebPro is that you give variety. You don’t constantly harp on the same topic or issue, and you don’t do a lot of “high pressure selling.”

Site Review: NaturesFlavors.com

I’m a frequent reviewer with a site that is in trouble. The site, www.NaturesFlavors.com, is an online superstore of natural products. We sell about 2500-3000 products, from aromatherapy products to syrups and juices to sugar-free products to flavors and fragrances.

Site Review: MyLingerie.net

The problem we’d like addressed is product layout. Lingerie comes in single pieces but we like to sell in sets. Tops and bottoms are quite often different sizes.

How do we layout our product to be:

- not confusing – allow single item purchase
- promote matching item purchases
- promote cross selling Is there information missing that would stop people from making a buying decision?

10 Decisive Tactics That Win Product Reviews

The benefits of a positive endorsement by the media can hardly be understated. Customers turn to the media to learn about solutions, and to help choose between potential offerings. Many prospective customers do not look beyond these endorsements and buy on the basis of their credibility. There is little question that “Two Thumbs Up” sells movies and a “5-star” rating sells hotel rooms. One PC-clone manufacturer told the author that their PC Magazine Editors Choice Award added about $5-million to their bottom line.
