Writing Enticing Product Descriptions

The most number of orders I get from my clients involve writing enticing and captivating ecommerece product description for their website. Words are powerful: they can make or break a relationship and they can help you sell what you can't sell.

I've made a list of some very simple, yet useful tips here to get your own product descriptions written without having to pay a content writer to do it for you:


  • Focus on your product alone. Don't talk about other products.
  • Jot down all relevant information about the product. Don't miss out on anything.
  • Make a list of all the useful features separately. Qualities like affordable, long-lasting, unique are always good. People are looking for them!
  • Use keywords for SEO. But don't do any keyword stuffing
  • Think about the target audience. Write as if you're talking to them. Entice them.
  • Keep it simple and short. People don't have time to read too much, but do that without missing out on any useful information. 100-300 words is a good length, but it can vary depending on what your product is and where you want to post it.
  • Use loads of adjectives and catchy phrases. Remember you want to convince the client to buy your product.
  • Answer all questions about the product potential client might want to know, such as the material of the product if it's a piece of clothing or the right measurements etc.. If you leave anything important unanswered, the client might find it easier to leave the page than to ask you a question and then wait until you respond.
  • Use headings and bullet points to make it simple for the buyers to read about the product. They should know at one glance only where they'll find the information that they're seeking.
  • Combine all the information and unique features.
  • Read it once. Then read it again aloud. Does it feel like you're talking to the clients in a nice friendly tone? Is the information useful for them to make a purchase decision? Is it powerful enough to convince them to buy or at least consider buying? If not, try again.
  • End with a strong call to action. 


Hope this helps you get as many sales as possible. If you need more help, you can always contact me and I'll be happy to guide you with some example.

See you next time with some more useful writing tips!

8 Reasons Why You Should Become a Ghostwriter

Despite having published under my own name, I prefer being a ghostwriter. While ghostwriting is not everyone's cup of tea, it just seems to work perfectly for me. The reasons?  1 . Ghostwriting Pays Well Ghostwriting is a lucrative niche . One of the best things about ghostwriting is that you get paid a handsome amount for it. And you get paid upfront. You don't have to wait to write, publish and then market your book to make any money out of it.    At Ghostwriters' World, I offer other writing services such as copywriting but ghostwriting undoubtedly pays the best. You just have to find the right clients- the ones who will pay you well. 2. You Have to do Less Homework Often your clients will have brilliant ideas and stories that they would want you to work on. This means you would not have to start from scratch. You don't have to come up with your own ideas and voice. You would have an outline or plot to begin with so you'll have to do less homewo...

Housewives Vs Working Women: Who is Better?

As promised last week, I am back into the blogging business. When I use the term 'business', I do not mean this is what I do professionally to make money out it, although that would be great too. Won't it? ;) My blog posts are meant for utilizing my sheer love for writing, to express my thoughts, experiences and opinions and then share them with you, and even better to help you out in some way, if possible. The Hottest Debate of the Millennium During the last few years I have had a lot of debates with my friends (many of whom are working women) about whether being a working woman is any better than being a stay-at-home mum. It is no surprise that many of those working women still think that being a housewife means sitting at home and chill-axing while being a working woman means working your arse off when you are at work and then coming back home to looking after the house and family. There is one thing that I have noticed that both housewives and working women...
