Although currently offering an array of content writing services here on Wickedfire, one of the areas Barclay & Riddell fall short in is landing page copy. While we can most likely continue to make a few dolla'-dolla' bills here and there by slangin' content at pennies per word, we realize that the big bucks are hidden within the ability to write landing page copy that converts.

That being said, we figured we'd solicit the help of our fellow Wickedfire members to compile a list of best and worst landing page copy (attested to by the fact they made you want to buy or not buy the product, or through quantitative data) The reason for this is simple: Once we have a semi-comprehensive list of the above, we can study the landing pages in their respective lists and reverse engineer what components help or hurt conversions.

We both have copies of Ca$hvertising and we just recently purchased Ogilvy On Advertising, so we'll be looking to those books to serve as the fundamental foundation upon which we build what we hope to be a strong, extensive understanding of what goes into landing page copy that converts.

With that, link away! Make sure to say whether the landing page copy you're linking can be considered "best" or "worst." Also, if you wish to comment on why you consider the copy you linked to be "best" or "worst," more power to 'ya!

Despite what you choose to do, we thank you for your time and consideration and are very much looking forward to what you motherfuckers can come up with.
 


Here's the formula (for real)

That entire formula looks incredibly arbitrary to me. How in the world would you go about accurately assigning values to things like "motivation," "anxiety," and the like? Sure, it highlights things you should consider when thinking about what goes into writing copy for landing pages that convert, but the formula itself seems like bullshit.

Also, I went to sign-up to peruse that site you linked to and every time I did, there'd be an error. So, if you have a login you can part with, let me know.
 
Want to know why your thread isn't getting any good replies?

Nobody cares about helping you. All I see in your post for help is me me me.

Why should I help you? Whats in it for me?

Oh nothing.

So you want me to do research for you to help you get better, for free...

Do you understand why nobody wants to help you?


Go read a couple books about copywriting and then come back here and look at your original post. Yours is a good example of bad copywriting. Theres your first case study, now go reverse engineer it.

To begin, lol. Considering this thread is on the topic of landing page copy, the way I went about writing the OP is irrelevant. Cute quips, though, bro'.

That being said, all I'm really asking for is a list of landing pages that lend themselves to profitability or a lack thereof. If you don't want to engage in a conversation about why you think the landing page you post is bad or good, then don't. I'm not holding a gun to your head. Your hand is not forced in any way.

If you need an incentive to post, I'll write a free 250-word article for you that employs the concept of LSI on any topic you want if your response is helpful.

You still don't understand my point.

Here I'll give you some advice, because I started just liked you did. I don't claim to know everything I just know what I've learned so far and its helped me.

First of all your asking for our help and your new.

The way you structured your OP is not the way you should be asking for help around here. To me, it comes off very demanding, like we owe you something. Just my opinion, other people might not see it that way.

If you want to get serious answers you gotta add some value that makes me want to contribute.

You could of said "help me find some of these bad and good landing pages and after I'm done doing research on em ill give you brief summary on what makes them good or bad."

Or you could told everyone you want to turn this into a bad vs good LP discussion thread.

Not "Hey motherfuckers im doing my own research so give me some good and bad LPs. If you want to tell me why they are good or bad that would be cool too, but you dont have too. Thanks bye."

I think forums are a great place work your copyblogging skills. Once you read a couple books on the subject you will understand where I am coming from. Then you can create a couple threads using interesting headlines to spark up discussion and do some interesting testing.

That must of been some good copy if you still remember that one.
