Wizdom > Word Design

Posted 07 November 2008

Intro
I thought I'd use this blog to expand on Copy Corner by sharing some of the ways I approached Escaping the Word Cage which, if you didn't know is my blog for copywriting articles.

My approach, being a copywriter, is to start with words and let them dictate the design.

    @Appnovaweb - change agencies to one that appreciates you?! ;) Thing is, although we all have our own natural style, when writing for business it's all about what will work for the client to get them more business. But then a lot of the time businesses are too scared to break-away from conservative corporate waffle and it can be hard to make them see that boring people into a sale isn't good!

    Wizely,
    I am a young copywriter looking to improve my style for a web design agency which doesnt like my humurous undertones. I find this quite frustrating at times, as when I do get applauded for some of my writing, it feels as though they are awarding me for being the worls tallest midget. How do I find my voice in the world of ecommerce web design.

    Copy corner was very good. Wish I'd read something like that when I was working with web-sites.
    I really do think copy should have a much better profiling on the forum. It's really something that needs to be brought to attention - another part of web-design that's all too often ignored. (guilty as charged)

    Traxor! I only enter the comp just to see how my sites do... I'm not a designer so it's definitely not about winning. I must admit some votes seem to go on Photoshop prowess rather than 'design', but they're cracking sites this month.
    Anyway... can't be greedy somehow Vivid Copy already won WOTM with the old design!

    Don't worry about not winning the competition, someone who doesn't deserve to win always does. No offence to James Icon, but his site lacks substance, standards and good content.
