In this post I will give you 824 words that convert more. That’s an enormous list, and it’s especially designed for bloggers.
Blogging could be hard. When you have an average quantity of readers, an average email opening rate, and average sales (if you sell online), you could ask yourself if the game is worth continuing.
Keep going!
Just use those 824 power words. Yes, they pay off. Immediately.
In fact, once you use those killer words all along your posts or product reviews, you’ll have outrageous results. Because we all agree to say that a “fascinating” content outclasses a “great” content.
Here is this list, specially adapted for those who need to build a loyal audience and to get rid of competition:
How to use those 824 words: an example is better than precept
Let’s imagine that your blog is about learning French, and you have written a revolutionary eBook to learn that difficult language.
If you say, “This E-book is the best way to learn French”, what will happen? Well, If your reader is someone who is exposed to thousands of daily advertisement (like most people in rich countries), he is not going to buy it.
Even if he plans to dredge a French girl during his next trip to Paris.
But now, if you explain your readers: “This unique, tested system is the only way to master conversational French in less than two months.” You’ll punch up your prose and that will boost your sales. You spiced things up with power words “unique”, “tested”, “master”, “only”, “in less”.
