We’re Moving To CopywritingDean.com

Posted By Stephen Dean on March 8th, 2009

I’m changing my domain name for this blog. You can find new posts here: http://www.copywritingdean.com

I decided Stephensblog.com wasn’t the best domain for my business. My name (Stephen) is kind of hard to spell. Many people spell it wrong. And it’s spelled differently than it sounds.

Ideally I’d move to StephenDean.com, but that domain is not available and likely not for sale. Apparently there’s a French artist with the same name as me who got it first. (I have emailed about it, but never got a response.)

So what to do…

CopywritingDean.com makes a lot of sense to me.

* It does have my last name in it “Dean.”
* It contains the keyword I’m targeting most.
* It kind of has a double meaning. Copywriting Dean, or Dean of Copywriting. You know?!
* And it better explains my site.

This site currently gets a lot of search engine traffic, and I don’t want to leave it all behind. So I’m going to keep it up for a while and see what I can do with the traffic.

Hopefully I’ll be able to build up links to http://www.copywritingdean.com quickly. If you already have me in your blogroll, I’d really appreciate it if you changed the URL to copywritingdean.com.

If you don’t have me in your blogroll, I’d really appreciate it if you added me :)

Again, thanks for reading everyone.

 

SHOOT, No Questions Yet…

Posted By Stephen Dean on January 24th, 2009

Shoot, guess we weren’t ready yet.

No questions for the copywriting Q&A. I tried to prime you guys up by asking you to leave more comments this week. We got 60 comments in 5 posts!

But no questions have come in yet for the copywriting Q&A. I guess I didn’t talk much about copywriting last week, maybe that’s something to learn from.

Listen, I’m going to answer copywriting questions on Monday even if I have to write them myself. LOL. But I’d love for you to submit a question to me.

Just look at the last copywriting Q&A session, it was great!

I’ll be sending out a prize to the best question, by my judgment, worth more than a $100. Let’s have ‘em!

hey stephen, here’s my copywriting question-
Let’s say i want to have a video on my page instead of lots of copy- would you advise this, and would you script it any differently?

I have a copy of MuVar 2009 but found the learning curve was just too much to build a selection of sentences and get it to run. Particularly on an existing site which has been up for a couple of years but conversion is still far too low.

Are there any shortcuts to learning? The videos are a little too simplistic for some of the things I wanted to include.

Glyphius is I suspect a good basis for learning copywriting but I still need to ensure that the flow between the paragraphs are natural. It tends to push me into stringing together sentences that don’t sound right when read aloud. Have you any tips for using it?

OK now for the big one I have tried to raise the price for a product but found the drop in sales meant I was losing money. Obviously I am about to drop them again blaming the credit squeeze and currency variations (I sell in US dollars the international internet currency although based in Scotland). Is this a good idea or should I just drop them without a hint of reason to stop people thinking I was desperate for sales.
