		<description>This makes so much sense, we put our website together thinking about what we do, never had a thought about what our customers might actually want or need...What a different approach, many thanks!</description>

		<description>Writing to the target audience is something that will definitely enable your website to rank among those who are more likely to use/buy your product/services. For example if your target audience is new home owners looking to implement a new type of flooring speak to the advantages of each type of flooring you are selling. This will enable to target audience to decipher which is right for them.</description>

		<description>Excellent post, Dawud. This should be the first piece of advice given to any newbie. If you always picture a friendly face in front of you and write as if you are having a chat with that person, you have to succeed. You have good info here. It is my first visit to your blog, but I will be back.</description>

		<description>This â€™simpleâ€™ lesson is hammered into me by my mentor. He indicated I should change the wording of our â€™serviceâ€™ page: donâ€™t talk about just the benefits, tell your prospect why and how THEY will benefit.</description>

You&#039;re welcome.

Absolutely. As is talking with your client/customer base to see if they get it. I always recommend testing things on your clients/customers because they know what you do.

Next, I would try it out on others who are not yet customers but either could be or could know someone who could be. If you get a positive response from people who don&#039;t know you, you&#039;re definitely in the right ballpark.</description>

You&#039;re great for willing to help.

And for testing: isn&#039;t having a blog or website you manage yourself a great tool in this?

Oops! Sorry.

Great to hear. I&#039;m certainly happy to help. Let me know if I can be of service to you any time.

One thought, though, you&#039;ll probably want to test our revised version with some of your clients - just to see their thoughts on it.</description>

		<description>That was what we had before, but as discussed puts WE too much in the forefront.

So that&#039;s why we made it even longer than that, we created over half a page of our website on this:
http://www.wood-you-like.co.uk/services.htm

You don&#039;t always have to be short and snappy we realised (well, after my mentor pointed that out, let&#039;s give the honour where it should go ;-))</description>
