I?ve been on the road to attend a wedding this last weekend. It was a lovely affair. Set in a garden, it had exquisite flowers, a beautiful view, lots of family and friends, and a very happy bride and groom.
The entire event came together so nicely. At every moment, the guests knew where they should be or where they should go. they always had something to entertain them, whether it was hors d?oeuvres and catching up with old friends, or dancing or dinner or toasting. Working quietly in the background, a whole team of people coordinated together to make everything smooth, calm, and memorable for the happy couple.
I?ll be honest. I didn?t think about web writing at all during the day of the wedding. but, afterwards, I realized that bringing together a wedding is a lot like pulling together a web-writing project in at least two ways.
First, to really do a web-writing project justice, you?ll get better results if you collaborate. you should talk with the web designer, the marketing director (or business owner, if it?s a small company), someone on the sales team, a customer service representative, the SEO person ? all of these people can bring something to your web-writing project and make it more successful.
Second, the wedding didn?t just happen the way it did. It took months and months of planning. It took asking questions and researching answers. It took entertaining different approaches. It took bringing people?s ideas together and working to find the right blend that would deliver the best results from the point of view of all the key people.
We may be self-employed, solo professionals, but we rarely ever work alone, and when it comes to any paid project, we?re never writing just for ourselves. Keep those things in mind on your next project, work to build connections around the project, and see if you don?t get better results. and, have a very happy client.
You Should Check these Out ?
This last week, Mindy made a recommendation that I?d never considered, but I think it is pretty brilliant. she suggests you write your own Wikipedia biography. Check out her post to find out why.
I also highly recommend John Torre?s most recent look at using themes in your direct-response copy. In his article, he shows you seven themes that have a proven track record of success and that you can adapt for anything you write.
And, member Mary Planding continues her series on using podcasts to build your business and to help your clients. Check out her comprehensive list of podcasting do?s and don?ts.

A Weekly Action Plan
This week, I?ll be announcing our next Wealthy Web Writer Challenge. It?s going to be a fun one. I won?t go into the details here ? you?ll have to wait for the official announcement ? but I am going to give you an action plan that will give you a jump on what?s coming. This week, I want you to start getting familiar with several free, online tools (mostly from Google) available to help your website succeed.
Google Analytics: Google Analytics is a free installation you can add to your website that will help you see how much traffic your site gets, when the traffic comes to your site, how long visitors stay, where they come from, and what keywords they use to get there.
Google Webmaster Tools: The Webmaster Tools offered by Google can help you see where errors exist on your site so you can fix them. It shows you which of your pages are indexed, what kind of search-engine queries turn up your site in response, and what sites are linking to you.
Google Keyword Search: Do quick and easy keyword research using Google?s free keyword tool. (For organic search, the Google Keyword Tool is a good place to start, but you should eventually plan to invest in software like Wordtracker.)
Google Trends: Once you know what kinds of keywords and phrases you want to use on different pages of your site, Google Trends can help you fine-tune your selections by showing you search trends on your favorite keywords.
Alexa: Alexa will give you an idea of how your site ranks overall on the Internet. It will tell you how many sites link to you, your highest-impact search queries, and whether your traffic is trending up or down.
I hope you find these tools useful. Check them out. Play with them a bit. I promise they?ll be very helpful in our upcoming Challenge.
That?s all for this week. make it a great one!
