TODO TODAY 04 / Website

Write a homepage headline people understand

Tell visitors what you do, who it is for, and why it matters.

Write for a customer

Start with the result your customer wants. Use everyday language. A visitor should not have to decode a slogan to understand your service.

Add the useful details

Put your service and location in a short supporting sentence. For example: “Bookkeeping for small businesses in Chico. Keep your books current and know where your money goes.”

Ask a real person

Show the headline to someone outside your business. Ask what you sell and who it helps. Use their confusion to improve your wording.

Your one thing today

Draft three headlines. Choose the clearest one and ask one person to explain it back to you.
