What makes the internet appealing and interesting, probably more than anything else, is the fact that you can find information in basically almost anything and everything. A person would be hard pressed to type in a keyword into any search engine and find nothing there. And, as such, it is very easy to find information an individual may need to put on their own sites for content.

Unfortunately, while this can be beneficial, it can also sometimes be a hindrance to that individual if the information is copied verbatim. For, an article copied word-for-word can actually be detrimental to his site. With that in mind, it is better to either change the article completely, or create original content.

When a web site has original content, it makes the site more appealing, not only to the reader, but to the search engines, as well. You could have a site with the same subject matter as a thousand other sites, but the original content would still make it stand out.

Another reason to have original content is that you can place appropriate keywords within the article or document which helps to rank higher within the search engine rankings. Finding the right keywords can greatly improve the chances of placing in the top ten results of these rankings.

Why bother with higher search engine rankings? Well, for a start, it means you could get larger numbers of visitors to your site. And, as we all should know, more visitors usually mean a better chance of making more sales, if that is the intention.

Another extremely good reason is that writing original content improves the contributor’s copywriting skills, an art that is essential to online marketing. In fact, it is often said, the one thing all the top gurus have in common is the ability to craft their own sales letters and emails.

Yes, writing original content is more challenging and can take more time. But, ultimately, it is more satisying to know that the article you have created is your own, and not just copied from someone elses site. Fresh copy is always more appealing.

So, it is clear that in order to be better at internet marketing, one of the the biggest skills to learn would be copywriting. And there are a vast number of courses on the internet today. The only challenge is knowing which ones to choose.

The good news is, there are a number of sites which can help you as they have already taken the time to write simple, easy to understand reviews. You just need to go through them and make an informed decision.

I first saw this sometime around the late 1980s or early 1990s, I can’t quite recall which.

It basically said…

“Join the army, meet interesting people, and kill them”.

While I found it rather funny, it also made quite an impression on me as I was in the Territorial Army, which is the UK equivalent of the US Home Guard.

This came to mind when I heard something John Carlton say something about what a hook should do in a sales copy.

In case you don’t know what a hook is, it’s the angle that catches attention or grabs a prospect by the throat and says, “READ ME!”

It literally forces them to read your advert, making it difficult tear themselves away from it.

It’s the, “head turning hook that reels people in,” as John would say.

It’s the angle that forces people to take out their wallets and buy whatever it is you’re selling.

It’s the angle that makes such an impression on your prospect, he can’t relax until he’s bought the product.

It’s pretty final.

And, I guess that’s what reminded me of the words in the title.

When you kill someone, for all earthly intents and purposes, it’s pretty much final… there’s no turning back… you can’t un-kill someone when you’ve killed them.
