Writing website content is a bit like singing:
a lot of people think they’re good at it, but reality can sound a little off-key.
It’s not enough for your website to simply exist. If your words aren’t tuned correctly, you’re missing critical opportunities to:
-
Boost your visibility in search engines.
-
Grab attention and keep visitors engaged.
-
Convince people to take meaningful action.
Getting all three right is what transforms a “meh” website into a customer-winning machine. And that’s exactly what I help you do.
Why ‘good’ isn’t good enough any more
DIY copy or rushed writing often leads to a website that’s:
❌ Invisible to search engines.
❌ Forgettable to visitors.
❌ Confusing instead of convincing.
It’s frustrating, isn’t it? You know your business offers real value – but if your website can’t explain it clearly and compellingly, it’s costing you opportunities every single day.
Good website content doesn’t just sound nice. It builds trust quickly. It engages the right people. And it gently but powerfully guides them towards working with you.
That’s the difference strategic content writing makes – and that’s what Words by Cornelia delivers.
Here’s what powerful website content really looks like
1. First, it helps people find you
I don’t start writing until I understand what your target audience is actively searching for. The words used on your website directly influence how well it ranks on search engines – so every sentence is crafted with both your audience and Google in mind.
Through keyword research and content strategy, I identify the exact phrases your prospects are typing into Google. That way, your website shows up in the right searches – for the right reasons.
This approach to website content is called SEO copywriting (SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation).
2. Then, it grabs their attention
Once a visitor lands on your site, you have seconds to make them care. Strategic copywriting ensures that every headline, subheading and sentence resonates with your audience’s pain points, desires, and goals.
It’s not about fluff. It’s about connection.
3. Finally, it moves them to take action
From clear calls-to-action to persuasive messaging that builds trust, good content gently guides your reader toward becoming a customer. No pressure. No gimmicks. Just purposeful, confident communication that works.
When you get all three right, your website becomes more than a brochure – it becomes a salesperson that works around the clock.
The SEO copywriting process
The website content process is simple for you and strategic from the start. Here’s how we’ll work together:
We’ll start with a Zoom call so I can get a clear understanding of your brand, goals, service, and audience. Then I’ll work on the keywords for your website, to formulate an SEO strategy. Once that’s finalised, I’ll craft website content that sounds like you, speaks to your ideal clients, and supports your broader marketing goals.
Whether you’re creating a brand new site or updating an existing one, you’ll get content that’s professional and persuasive.
I work hard to meet agreed deadlines – but I don’t take on rush jobs. Creating thoughtful, strategic website content takes time, research, and care. If you’re after quick-turnaround copy, I might not be the best fit. I’m often booked in advance, so if you’re planning a project, it’s best to get in touch early.
Who I write website content for
I write for service-based businesses of all kinds – because no matter your industry, trust and clarity are what truly sell.
From builders to beauty therapists, recruitment consultants to funeral homes, wellness businesses to gyms, software companies to management consultants – I’ve helped a wide range of professionals turn confusing or underperforming websites into powerful sales tools.
I’m based in New Zealand but work with clients across the English-speaking world, including Australia, the UK, and the USA. If your business relies on expertise and reputation to win clients, I can help you say what matters – clearly, confidently, and strategically.
