Our Latest Book: How to Write Great Copy for the Web


Last week I introduced you to the latest collaboration between Rockable Press and FreelanceSwitch, How to Write Great Copy for the Web by Donna Spencer. I am happy to announce that the book has been launched today and Rockin’ List members get a $5 discount code on the digital book, bringing the book’s price down to just $10. Get subscribed and check out the book.

“In How to Write Great Copy for the Web, author Donna Spencer will help you start writing content for the web that works! Learn about how writing web copy differs from other forms of writing, and how writing useful, functional and concise copy can both help persuade your readers, and also help with search engine optimization!

Whether it’s for your own site, or for somebody else’s, How to Write Great Copy for the Web will quickly bring you up to speed with some clever strategies that will make you popular with your site’s visitors, or with your clients!”

We know it’s hard to judge a book by its cover, so we’re making the first chapter and the table of contents available to download for anyone who is interested. That way you can decide for yourself if this book is right for you. We think it’s great for any sort of freelancer who wants to write web copy, be they freelancer writers who are new to the web, or web designers whose clients keep asking them to take care of copy—it happens all the time, so it’s a great idea to learn the skill and make some money out of it!

  10. PG Mike

    same deal – how do I/we get the discount code??

  11. PG Joel Falconer

    Hey guys–Rockable are sending out a daily message to new subscribers with the discount code. If you subscribed within the last 24 hours you should’ve received today’s message.

    1. PG Peggy

      Problem is I had joined Rockable a while ago — is the offer only for new subscribers?

  12. PG Christine Silickas

    Just back to add that yes my code arrived today :) I went and bought it straight away, it’s really interesting so far! Thanks!

  13. PG Will

    Does anyone know anywhere I can find some information or a bio on the author?

    1. PG Donna

      Here is some stuff about my business: http://maadmob.com.au/
      And my bio: http://maadmob.com.au/about/bio/
      And if you want to know way too much, you can see my twitter stream: http://twitter.com/maadonna/

  14. PG Janik

    Hmm, I’m still waiting for my subscription code. I subscribed on the 10th of Marh 09:25 PM Central European Time. The 5$ off would’ve been the discount making me buy that book :(
    Anyone got a code left ?

    1. PG Joel Falconer

      It’s probably a good idea to check your spam folder because if you’ve been on the list since the 10th a message containing the code will definitely have been sent out by now. If you still have no luck contact Support: http://support.envato.com/

  15. PG Ben

    I want to get the book but I didn’t receive any emails or coupon codes for this either. Nothing in spam too.

  16. PG pixl_dave

    Nice little chapter excerpt, liked what I read and I just wanted to point out one little error that I found in the chapter that is linked on this page where on page 14 in the rock tip section, the second youtube link is missing a slash character / after com, while on page 16 the url is written correctly.

  17. PG Murlu

    Fantastic!

    It’s going on my list right away after I finish the books I’m reading currently.
