The killer copy has, and always will rule. Just having the coolest look doesn’t SAY anything for you, literally. Copy is time tested. Wether it be the newspaper, a T.V. news script or the article like you are reading now, it is the words that gain trust and acceptance of a company or image. Proper copy online is a different animal when you take into consideration of proper SEO, but the same premises stands.

If this means: adding media, flashy headings or any wording in your pitch that’s great, as long as the user or buyer will appreciate it. Try to go through revision stages only looking at your selling copy from a perspective users P.O.V. (point of view).
