Your Clients Deserve To Have The Best User Experience Possible!
UX stands for User Experience. This concept is usually used in terms of how a potential customer experiences a company’s website.
In a nutshell, UX copywriting is all about prioritizing the needs and goals of the website user, even above the goals of the company, if necessary.
Here’s a more formal definition:
Sounds simple, right?
The fact is, there’s a lot to making a website user-friendly and easy to navigate and use. The better your customers’ user experience is on your website, the longer they will stay and visit. And this means a better chance of conversions, i.e. sales for you!
Marketers are beginning to realize how important having great UX is to their bottom line. Here are a few statistics:
- 70% of visitors will abandon their purchase if UX is poor.
- 88% of potential customers will not go back to a website after just one bad User Experience
- 84% of people surveyed say being treated like a real person is important to winning their business.
- Superior UX increases visitor-to-lead conversion by 400%.
- Just $1 invested in better UX can yield $100 in return!

I want to give you a taste of how a UX Copywriter helps a client’s website to create the best User Experience possible for its visitors.
Before a copywriter even begins to make changes or additions to a website, there are 3 basic Mindsets he or she must keep in mind:
Mindset #1 – Anticipation:
- What was your potential customer doing before arriving on your webpage? A Google search? On social media? Dealing with a personal issue?
- What’s the most likely goal the user is trying to achieve?
- What is likely holding them back from taking the next step?
Mindset #2 – Empathy/Consideration:
- Take off your marketing, copywriting, and business hats, and put yourself in your user’s place…see what he is seeing with fresh eyes.
- How can you connect with the user from where she is now?
- What will create a disconnection, and cause the user to leave?
Mindset #3 – Transparency:
- Provide a “reason why” (like why they should take the next step on your webpage).
- Always back up every claim – with social or statistical proof.
- Help your user self-filter. Your products/services may not be for everyone, so help her decide whether or not to continue down the “yes” path to buying what you have to offer.
These are just the beginning steps to establishing an excellent user experience for your clients.
