Website Copy Audit

An audit of your current website copy. A step-by-step plan to move forward.

You know you need a change because at least one of the following is true:

  • You’re in the middle of a redesign
  • You’ve totally overhauled your service menu
  • You’re answering too many of the same questions over and over (and over)
  • You had to awkwardly tell that person from the networking event to ignore part of your website
  • You tried to rewrite your copy, but you just couldn’t figure out how to stay organized and on track
  • You’re finding it hard to strike the balance between brand voice, SEO writing, and sales copy
  • Your own attempts feel jumbled or wordy, lacking the right flow
  • Saying you’ve been stuck on it “for a long time” is a charitable assessment…

Get started the easy way

"I can write. Why is writing my website copy so hard?"

Copywriting is a skill. And it’s more than just choosing words that sound good.

It’s about taking an data-first approach to your site. 

That’s why getting personalized advice from a copywriter who lives in the world of headline formulas, Problem-Agitation-Solution, eyebrow copy, customer journeys, tone vs voice makes so much sense.

It takes years to master copywriting. 

When you don’t have that much time? Just rent a copywriter’s brain.

"Meh. I'll do it later."

Your website isn’t on fire, so it’s not a priority.

But what happens when your website copy isn’t working?

  • Your traffic stays so low, you wonder if you and your mom are the only ones who ever visit
  • Potential customers who do end up on your site don’t find any reason to stick around
  • That cool lead you gave your business card to at the networking event doesn’t understand the value of what you do

"Why can't I just..."

Google a template and do myself?

YouTube tutorials can be super legit. Hundreds of templates out there could work GREAT for your site.

But… how do you know which one is right? Which one applies the best to your specific business needs? And how do you know you’re filling the thing out correctly?

After hours of work, you’re still left with a ton of questions and no one to turn to.

Hire a copywriter to write it for me?

If you can afford it, and you’ve been in business for a year or more, hiring a copywriter can be a worthwhile investment. (If I do say so myself.)

But let’s be honest: hiring a copywriter is out of reach for a lot of small business owners. A site from scratch can cost you $3000, as a starting point. 

It's time for a Website Copy Audit

 Grow your audience. Make more money online.

You need a website that works. 

The Website Copy Audit covers the big and small ways you can optimize your current site for your needs and your audience.

Every site is different. Every business is different. Every Website Copy Audit is lovingly crafted to move your business and your project forward.

So much value crammed into a $297 package.

YES to cookies
NO to cookie-cutter solutions

Personalized

Every plan is started from scratch. Everything starts with your business and your needs. No templates. 

Strategic

The internet changes fast. I keep up with better known practices and what’s working today to help keep your copy strategic and ethical.

Focused

Tell me exactly what questions you have, your goals, and the kind of help you need. You get exactly the help you’ve been thirsty for. 

A Website Copy Audit makes sense when…

  • You KNOW that you need to change your website copy, but you have no freaking clue where to start.
  • You’re a perfectly capable writer, but when you sit down to write about yourself, a curtain blocks off the “word make?” portion of your brain.
  • You’re working with a website designer, and they remind you that they need the content in three weeks.
  • You tried to rewrite your website copy, and everything sounded like a robot wrote it. Not even a cool robot.
  • You already asked an actual robot to write it, and you want a trained human to take a look.
  • You are not the biggest fan of blank pages.
  • You needed it done yesterday. AKA six months ago.
  • You’re still recovering from the sticker shock from the copywriter who gave you a quote last year.

But only if all these things are true…

  • You have the time, energy, and capacity to write or edit your own website copy.
  • You want support, but also to take responsibility for the result.
  • You’re approaching the project with curiosity about what works well and what doesn’t for your audience.

No more feeling stranded with a website rewrite project

Book your audit

Plan on taking 5-10 minutes to answer a few questions about your business, your website, and your goals moving forward. I’ll confirm, let you know if I have any questions, and send you the invoice for $297.

Get your plan

You’ll get a link to a video, your website copy roadmap, and any other extras via email.

Schedule a follow-up call or email support

What works for you? It’s all included.

Don't get stuck. Start with a
clear plan.

You’ll see the difference when your copy is more descriptive and clear: More leads. Better leads. Fewer questions from cheapos clogging your inbox.

“Sounds great … but does it work?”

Customers aren’t going to come sprinting toward you, cash in hand, the moment this is done.

But when your marketing messages are clear and targeted, you’ll get more of the kinds of clients you want to serve. That’s what we’re all working toward here. 

“I don’t have the time.” 

We all have busier seasons, some of which we can predict, and some of which we can’t. But in general, we’re busy people who have to carve time out to finish projects. You can carve it now, or you can carve it later. But you’re not going to reap the benefits until it’s done.

“What if I can’t get it done, or I hate what I write, or I get sick and fall behind at work, or my writing hand gets chopped off by my dad in a lightsaber battle, or any other life stuff that might pop up?”

Kelley Gardiner Copywriting has a DIY-or-Don’t Guarantee. If don’t feel like you can get it done, credit the entire fee to a Website Refresh  or another service of your choice.

“But my writing skills aren’t so hot.”

Do you mean you have a hard time expressing yourself? Or that your grammar is not that great?

If it’s the grammar thing, I can hook you up with a copy editor when you’re done. 

If you don’t think you have the chops and you’re not excited to try, consider a Website Refresh instead.

“Can I talk to Kelley first?”
