Speaker 1 (00:01):
Hi, welcome to the show. Filling in for John today, you get two of us. So I am Liz Mac Intyre. I'm the creative services director here at Web Canopy Studio. And with me today is Elizabeth.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Yep. And I am an account manager at Web Canopy Studio.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Yeah. And between the two of us, we have launched dozens, thousands of websites both here and, and you know, along our career. So today we're gonna focus on some common misconceptions about content on your website.

Speaker 3 (00:40):
Right.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
So something Elizabeth and I both were talking about is how typically clients like to focus on themselves during the website design or you know, copywriting process and really what should they be focusing on Elizabeth?

Speaker 2 (00:57):
They should focus on the user, on their client and not on them. Nobody wants to go buy from a cheerleader, sorry, cheerleaders. If that's, you know, ruining your game today, that's not intended. But they wanna know what you're gonna solve. Right. and so that's what your, your content needs to focus on is how you help them in their day with whatever it is that you're selling on your site.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Right. They need to really understand that, you know, what their problems are and that mm-hmm your product or service can actually fix that for them. They don't wanna hear all about you, right. When they first land on the site, that's what you're about pages for. Right. So your homepage should really, really be focused on those pain points and how you are going to help solve them. We talk a lot about, you know, kind of thinking about a story, right? Mm-Hmm so in a story, they're their own hero, right. You're not the hero, you're just the one that's going to help guide them along their journey, right?

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Yeah. And everybody loves a good story. It makes for better copywriting.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. So that's kind of when you first land on the website on the homepage, that's what you want, but let's talk about product pages. So once we get into a product page, we also don't want to necessarily hear just about features and, and those things, right. We wanna hear about the pain points that this particular solution is going to solve. And then also we don't wanna get lost in jargon, right?

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Oh yeah. Jargon

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Yeah. Yeah. We know everybody in the SAS world in any, you know, specific industry has their own industry jargon, but not, everybody's going to understand it might make you sound educated at a cocktail party, but on your website, right. Let's actually get into the meat of it and talk to people where they're at.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Right. And to further go like down that road of jargon, you know, you have to worry and can, you know, consider SEO. And sometimes those terms are so inside that nobody actually searches for, I don't know, I'm trying to think of one off of the spot. I have a background in payroll and HR software. So we'll just say HCM, not a lot of people are gonna search H HCM. They're probably going to look for payroll and HR

Speaker 1 (03:18):
Software. Exactly. Right. Yeah. Anagrams, those are tricky. Mm-Hmm so, so how do you get around that? Right. So I know when I was writing papers in college, right. You could get away with, you know, once you've said it, once you can then put it in parentheses, and then you can use that, you know, later on throughout the page, but what's really important. I think with SEO, like you mentioned, you can't do that with like H one S , you know, or in your meta description either you should really sell out the entire word so that you're capturing the, the SEO value.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Exactly. And you can say it in a supporting paragraph somewhere, or even maybe put it on a blog, like what is HCM, and then explain it, not that that's the best blog title, but you get where I'm going. And do things that way instead of putting it in those key places that you just mentioned, like the H ones in the metas.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we focused a lot on, on content so far, but something else we were kind of talking about a, a popular kind of misconception with websites is, again, if you're selling a product or a service, we wanna see it. right. Yeah. We don't wanna see a bunch of stock photos. And if we do see stock photos, we want them at least to like, show somebody interacting with it or seeing what's happening. Right.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Mm-Hmm yeah. There's, it's kind of fun. Like, you know, I mean, you and I are both designers by, you know, by background, right? Yeah. And so we naturally gravitate towards imagery, but then you and I also like, will remember what sites had, what imagery, and now you're like, oh, that's from Unsplash I've seen that same stock photo 500 times. So while the stock photos are great, they serve purpose, but we wanna see your product. Like, that's why humans like to go to the store. Right. We're tactile. We wanna see things. And obviously if I'm buying software, that's not something I can tangibly see, but if I can see the screens and see what it looks like. Yeah. That's, that's helpful. That's yeah, for sure. Picture's worth a thousand words. Right.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
That's a great point. Yeah. If you are a product or a service that, that is an app or is on a computer, we wanna see it on a screen. , you know, sometimes you can kind of allude to it being on a screen with illustrations or different kind of ideas where maybe you're not specifically showing a screenshot of the application. Right. But you can kind of make it, feel like it in an illustrated way, but it still needs to somehow represent that it's on a screen, you know? Yeah. Whether it could be a browser or on a, you know, a mobile device, whatever the case may be, we need to actually see it in action. Right.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
Absolutely. And then if you software or application that you have is responsive where it's web based. Mm-Hmm , I mean, I think most is, but it's possible that there's somebody out there that's not show it. Yeah. And show what it looks like on all those device types, because then people get, oh, I could use this on anything. This is convenient for me. I like it.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yeah. Yeah. I know. Yeah. We've seen too where you can use a stock photo if it if it's somebody like on a screen interacting with something mm-hmm, , let's say maybe you're a software for doctor's offices. Right, right. But you wanna make sure that you have like the, the waiting room. You don't have just a bunch of guys in lab coats with stethoscopes, even if you're talking about radiology. Right, right. Radiologist doesn't wear a stethoscope that doesn't make any sense. Right, right. You gotta make sure that it really matches. But I think to your point too, there are really popular stock models, I guess, is what you call them. Yeah. That you see everywhere. And I would, I would definitely guide you against using those people. Cuz you might see them in a billboard somewhere and it might remind you of a preparation age, commercial or that you never know. Right. Yeah. Right. You don't wanna be associated with that.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Nobody does. Sorry. Preparation age yeah. And then

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Name, job. Sorry.

Speaker 2 (07:22):
Yeah. Well we're cool. We're cool. We were given free reign today so we can talk about whatever. Right. but to your point about people like software is not, obviously it's, it's a service, right? It's a, it's a thing, but people resonate with people like we're naturally drawn towards humans. And so putting that human element on your page will in like in theory, increase page engagement, you know, like I'm losing my word right now. But people will interact with you and say a little bit longer if there's faces on the page, not just screenshots. absolutely the balance.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Yeah. Yeah. I think another great point is, is, you know, including real life testimonials from clients and the more personal that can feel the better, you know, it's obviously great to have logos you know, anything like that, but if you can have a video of actually absolutely using, talking about interacting with, with you, your product, your service, it's gonna go so much further than any stock or illustrations really.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
And that they're actual clients and not just, you know, this is Frank and he's a VP.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
Like cool. But how do I know Frank's real? Cuz you just used, you know, a little avatar and you know, , that's a little suspect now, but people will actually go research that stuff. They'll wanna see, you know, who's out there using what they'll look 'em up on LinkedIn. I know when I, you know, in previous life, when I worked with the sales team at a different company, we would have prospects that would actually go look based on our case studies. They would go look at their websites and look up these people mm-hmm I don't know that they necessarily reached out to 'em on LinkedIn, but they were just cuz you're just naturally curious. You wanna see who it is and if they're legit,

Speaker 1 (09:15):
Well you wanna vet it. Yeah. Yeah. You know, kinda like we mentioned earlier, you don't wanna talk about yourself on the homepage. There's definitely places to talk about yourself. Right. Mm-hmm like an about page and that's a great way to, to kinda help and, and link back to, to LinkedIn profiles. Again, people wanna know that you're legit. mm-hmm, , it's so easy. You can't trust everything on the internet. Right. so right. To, to have real authentic testimonials, real authentic people. Mm-Hmm on your website. I know in the age of remote, how hard is it to write and about page, right where everybody's everywhere. You can't take a photo in your office cuz kinda everybody's everywhere. But you could still have testimonial videos from your employees right on your, about page that are a little more authentic. You know, it, I wouldn't go leadership because right there they are trustworthy. There's definitely a time and a place to have a leadership person talk through the company where they've been. Mm. But you are trying to get to to be authentic. Right. You wanna talk to, to somebody else who doesn't have as much skin in the game, if that makes sense.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
Maybe more peer to peer. Yeah. You know, like pick someone that kind of matches your target audience or your ideal client pick somebody like that. Yeah, for sure. And to, to back that up further, like people, humans still shop and purchase and make decisions by word of mouth

Speaker 1 (10:49):
Mm-Hmm

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Absolutely. You know, and in the age of remote, like you said, that's harder because there's digital things. Amazon has reviews and all that stuff mm-hmm but that's social proof. And so people wanna see, oh, this thing is going to last me a long time or serve a purpose or something like that. Yeah. And then they base their decisions off that. So

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Yeah. Yeah. That's great. Yeah. What other let's see, misconceptions with websites not having a demo page or some easy way to contact you. Right. I mean a contact page is, is great. And I think that for specific industries, you know, if you're in a service industry, for example, right. Just a straight contact page, if you've got a physical location, add that. Right. Any mm-hmm social media, you know, outlets ways to get a hold of you. But if you are in the tech industry, for example, you have got to have a demo page. Right. whether or not there's a free demo on the site or if it needs to be a personalized, like get in touch and talk later doesn't matter. But if you can't get to that point, people are gonna bounce. Right.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
absolutely. Yeah. And then also we're lazy, right? Humans are lazy by nature. Yeah. If you put 800 form fields on there, in addition to just name, email, phone company, that's it like you ask, you know, what's your dog's name? You know? , I don't know. I I'm not that I've ever seen that on a form, but I think you get where I'm going. Mm-Hmm like keep it short and sweet. Keep it so that people wanna take that 30 seconds to fill it out, get the demo or better yet have a meetings link right there. If you're able to, you know, like HubSpot does that. It's great. You can assign things around Robin mm-hmm and then it's just one less thing that somebody has to remember to do to get in front of your company and see more about your product.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
Right? Yeah. I think on that page too, what's really important is to talk about what you're going to get out of the demo. Mm-Hmm mm-hmm I, you know, you you're asking somebody for their personal information, right. Even if it's a business email, right. That's sacred. Mm-Hmm you should tell them the time commitment of what a demo's gonna take.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
Oh, great idea.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Who should come to this meeting? Right? Mm-Hmm is essential. Just kind of a discovery meeting where you find out who, you know, the other stakeholders or is this like bring the team, you gotta talk to us now. You know what I mean? Like you have to tell people what they're getting into before it's it's late

Speaker 2 (13:24):
Yeah. Just set the expectation and even better if you have a simple, proven process mm-hmm like, this is our process one, you book the demo two, you get this and then three you're, you know, good to go your life. Yeah. that's even better because people are like, oh, that's it. Okay.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Right. Yeah. Yeah. That's a great point. We see great success with people who put that right on their homepage. You know, what, what it looks like,

Speaker 2 (13:50):
Oh yeah. Who

Speaker 1 (13:51):
Go through that process with you, you know, mm-hmm before the success. But also yeah, on the demo page, I would even like reiterate it and, and let people know exactly what they're getting into. Right. Mm-hmm

Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah. And I know that I'm throwing a curve ball at you, but I just thought of something. Yeah. Content. I don't think people pay attention enough to what's in a chat bot.

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Oh, that's such a good point. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Yeah, because there's so, I mean, everybody knows there's a bot behind it. Eventually you might get to a human, but I think most people are know that the bots are pretty smart. Mm-Hmm and if you have that chat bot, that's one more way that somebody can get information easily about your product and service and you know, chat bots now, like different products exist to run those bots. You can even have bots on certain pages or turn off bots if you don't want a bot. And they even have, you know, we used it at my previous employer. We had, you know, available hours. Yeah. And so somebody would get pinged during the day when there was a chat, but if it was after hours, it was like, oh, somebody will respond to you in the morning. Or I don't remember what the message said. It was not that lame. It sounded way better than that. but we were actually able to sell a few deals just right through chat, live chat on the site, which was really cool.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Yeah. Yeah. If you know, to your point about people, they don't, they don't read . Right, right. I mean they want stuff kind of spoonfed to 'em and if it's so easy to interact with, with a chat bot to get your answers, you don't have to dig around a site. You don't have to try to, to find them. Right. If they're right there, they could just ask 'em and get into your funnel that quickly mm-hmm right. That's awesome. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Yeah. And the other thing too is if you pay attention to the chat contents, if you notice a pattern in questions where you're like, oh, they keep asking about, you know, one of our products, I don't know, we'll pick on web canopy, you know, like our, our website development, maybe somebody doesn't understand it. Then that means something on your page is off. Something is not clicking because you've got more than one person asking the same question. And then you can take that as a learning experience and go back and adjust that content.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah. That's a great point. Yeah. Yeah. Something's not clicking people are, aren't understanding it. And also if, if you see a pattern in chatbot questions that you don't have answers to, right, right. Then you can realize, oh, we better start writing some stuff about this mm-hmm and you can even link from a chatbot to an article. Right. So yeah. If somebody wants a more detailed explanation, you could say, Hey, you know, here's a quick do, but then if you want more information, if you need to take this to leadership to really sell the idea. Right. here's where you can find more resources.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
Yeah, absolutely. As you can tell, I kind of like chat bots. It's funny. I don't use them. But I think they're valuable. I only use 'em if I absolutely have to personally, but yeah. I think they're valuable.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
It helps save time. Definitely. Absolutely. You don't have to search around for it. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-Hmm another point I thought of when we were talking about people not reading about

Speaker 2 (17:00):
Yeah. They scan

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah. They do. They scan so some tricks for scanning, you know, make sure that you've got really good headlines that are very clear. Mm-Hmm to search engines, look at your headlines, but also as people scan, they're gonna see it cuz it's big and bold, right? Yes. Designer. That's where their eyes are gonna go. But then, you know, if you have details, don't put 'em in a big paragraph. Nobody's gonna read a paragraph of content, let alone a whole page of it. Right, right. We gotta break it out into some quick, you know, little bites. Bullet points are great. We love bullet points. Sometimes we can also show, instead of tell if that mm-hmm makes any sense, you know, through, through videos, through animated gifts through some sort of illustration, because not everybody's the same type of learner. You learn this going through school, right? Some people are more visual than they are you know, tactile or, or any of the other different learning styles. So making sure that you can resonate with them is really gonna be important.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
Well, and to your point about videos and gifts and things like that, people absorb information in different ways. Like I happen to be a reader, right. And it, I have to focus on something if it's audio or video, I can't multitask. It just won't sink into my head. So you're tapping into people's learning abilities, you know, learning or how they learn. And that's what they're doing is they're at your site to get educated about how you solve, what the issue that they have and then to your scanning point you know, it was a Z, right? Yep.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
Historically, exactly. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Yeah. But with the advent of web, it's changed to an F pattern because of those side navigations and it still, you know, kind of is a Z. But if you keep that in mind, you can keep key ideas and topics in that scanning or even imagery mm-hmm in that pattern and, and people will scan it and then they'll go back. Yeah. And, and find out more information. But yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:58):
Yeah. You can point. Yeah. As people, not

Speaker 2 (19:01):
The the volumes of text up to the fiction writers. Right.

Speaker 1 (19:05):
Good books. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. Yeah. If people have not heard that before that's typically how your eye follows mm-hmm website is you kind of follow it in a Z. So you would read along the top, your eye kind of goes down and then back across. So if you, if you notice that if you know that it's a great trick for writing content it is also imagery, right? Cuz you don't want your imagery to distract from the content you want to always add to it. Right. Mm-hmm you could have the most beautiful website, but it doesn't say anything you're not gonna convert. Right? Yeah.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Yeah, exactly. And then on mobile, you gotta pay attention to where people, you know, scroll with their fingers. They they're pushing up the screen and things like that. So it's all fun, fun stuff, fun puzzles to solve

Speaker 1 (19:52):
That's why QA is so important. I know I was, oh yeah. I was just doing something on my phone and I was so frustrated that it kept clicking on something. When I was trying scroll, I was like, Nope, that's not what I wanted to do.

Speaker 2 (20:04):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I recently had the same thing. Well, it wasn't recently. It was like a couple years ago where I got a phone that was a slightly different size than the one I had previously. And so you have that muscle memory, but then I kept kept hitting voice in the text thing instead of just typing because it was in a different spot because the screen was physically bigger and that, you know, I've adjusted. But just to your point, like it, it's just crazy how fast everything changes and how you get used to a pattern. This has nothing to do with content, but oh

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Yeah. Yeah. No, but that's, it is important. It's that's why it's important to test user testing. Yes. you know, again, this is kind of changing gears, but I think it's super important to have somebody else on the team go through and, and read everything and make sure that it makes sense. You know, mm-hmm because especially if you've been working on a website project, it's your baby, you've been, you've been laboring,

Speaker 2 (20:59):
You know it, yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
You know it, you know it inside and out and you're gonna skip a word because your brain already knows what needs to go there. Mm-Hmm so having somebody else review it play with it, try to break. It is so important when it comes to content, design development, all the steps. Right, right. It's very important.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
And show someone who's not close to the project. Like what, when you look at this, what is it that we do? And if they don't know, then you need to go back to square one.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
Unfortunately we've been there. We've been there before it happened. Right?

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Yeah. I've done it. I've done it. I've shown my husband something. And he is like, what? You're like, oh, okay. I need to redo that.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah. So important. Any other misconceptions with, with website content?

Speaker 2 (21:49):
I think the, I don't know how common this is, but I've seen it where people think they need to use bigs three and four syllable words.

Speaker 1 (21:58):
Mm yeah. But

Speaker 2 (21:59):
The best copy is so short and simple and it, I, you know what, and it's beautiful when it's done. Well, you're like, wow, that's super clean. Like look at things like big brands like Nike or I'm trying to think of somebody else. Who's really good at co they, they have, it's just simple.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Bold statements. You statements where it it's. Yeah. It's easy to scan. Easy to read. Easy to comprehend.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Yeah. What's the, I, I, I'm not going to mess it up, but I feel like everybody tries to write for what a third grade reading level

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Is that. Yeah. I can't remember if it's third or fifth.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Fifth. Yeah. Maybe

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Something like that. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
Something like that. And I know I I've definitely had conversations with clients where they, they thought I was being condescending when I said that and it right. Absolutely. Is not meant that way, but for people to, to read it and, and comprehend it, you know, it has to be so short. And to the point, if you are using vocabulary outside of somebody's norm mm-hmm , their, their brain is gonna not absorb it as well as if it's just very crystal clear. Right, right.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Mm-Hmm yeah. And the same with like tone of voice while I love snarky, sarcastic copy. Not everybody understands sarcasm and I'm not saying that's bad, that's a choice you have to take for your brand. Mm-Hmm . But that's a consideration because some people just don't understand that humor. They don't get it. Yeah. Or they're like, they think it's, you know, silly. And they're like, well, I don't want my, I don't wanna do business with this person, but

Speaker 1 (23:28):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You, you really need to know your target. Right. Mm-hmm and, and make sure that your voice and tone are coming through in a way that resonates with them. Even if let's say, you know, you yourself are extremely professional, you know, you wear a suit and tie every day, but if your target right is out there wearing sneakers and a t-shirt with band on it, right. You gotta talk to them. Mm-Hmm it goes little ways. Right.

Speaker 2 (23:56):
yeah. Know who you're talking to, cuz you're not gonna, you know, talk to a first grade classroom the same that you would, you know, an office full of. I don't know, accountants , you know, at some type of a conference or something like you're gonna change what you say or no, how you say it, you're gonna say the same thing, but you're gonna say it differently.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
That's right. Yeah. Do you have any transfer for, you know, if you're thinking through content, how do you put yourself in, in that person's shoes to, to make sure that you're saying, yeah,

Speaker 2 (24:29):
That's a great question. I historically, I've gone to see, like sometimes you can figure out based on the persona, if you have a really great persona nailed down where else they go, you know what I mean? And what else they do and you can pick that up from there. But then also talk to some people like when I worked in payroll and HR, I literally interviewed HR people. Yep. You know, I'm like, what resonates with you? What do you, what doesn't, you know, what is it that you need? I don't know. Yeah. You get where I'm going.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. A persona is so important to start with mm-hmm and you might even have an idea of who your target is, but after you launch the site, if it's not resonating with them, you can tell, right. You can look at the metrics, you can look at you know, heat mapping and, and where people are falling off and you can see like, oh, maybe I got this wrong, you know, mm-hmm and, and what do you need to do to, to change it? Right. So that's when you would maybe go talk to somebody, you would have them look at it and see like, does this not? Is this not resonating with you? And, and why? Yeah. User testing.

Speaker 2 (25:34):
Absolutely.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Say it again. It's so important.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Yeah. Yeah. Go to the people, go ask the people, you know, and see what they do. And then like, to the persona point, I think it's really important to not just focus on demographics. Yeah. And like, what are their hobbies? What kind of car does Molly drive? You know, like, that's cool. If you're an auto, you know, manufacturer, but you know, if I'm selling, I don't know, what would we be selling either where I don't need to know that Molly owns a van, you know, it's not gonna help you is what I'm saying with copying content,

Speaker 1 (26:09):
But knowing the other places that they go for information would be really important. Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:15):
Mm-Hmm, what it is they're trying to solve and what they hope your product can deliver for

Speaker 1 (26:20):
Them. Yeah. Those are for questions. Yeah. Yep. Mm-Hmm it all comes back around. That's kind of what we started with. Look at that. Nice, neat little circle. It's

Speaker 2 (26:29):
A nice little package. I know. Nice little nice little circle right there. Like you said. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
all right. Well, I think, I think we we touched on a lot of points mm-hmm and a lot of different ideas that could definitely spark more conversations, but I think, oh, absolutely. For the most part, we, we kinda wrapped up you know, how important it is to have a persona, how you need to talk to them, not about yourself. What were some of the other points we talked about? Being clear, crystal clear mm-hmm

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Keeping it simple, short and simple, edit, edit, edit, trim, trim, trim. Yeah. And then trim again. When you think you were done, just do it one more time.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
So important. Clear call to action to you.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
Oh yeah. We didn't even touch on those.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Oh, I know. But we talked about, we talked about the demo. It was good. We
