SEO Copywriters From India Should Not Try To Write In English
This is a rant. I will be up front. I am so tired of seeing content writers from India try to tout their expertise in writing. Here is an example of what I mean. I am looking at a website with the page title “Web Site Copywriting Services India SEO Copy-writing Services India.” I am not going to give them a link, you can Google the title and find them.
I have been looking at the site an there are errors everywhere. Why in the world would anyone want to spend money on a service that claims to be a professional writing company when they obviously can’t do the job. My 5th grader writes better than these guys.
Here is an example from their “Website Copywriting” page:
Want your internet venture to be successful, let your content writing part unique and creative. All the website SEO copywriters and website content writers try to do the same, to sell their words. Quality content on your website will engage your visitors and keep them in your site.
We at SEO Content Writers offers website content writing services for big as well small sized business ventures. Here are certain points about our SEO content writing services.
Need I say more? This is just one paragraph out of pages of content on this site. Enough already. If you don’t want to spend more than $5.00 on an article for your website then don’t send it to India, send it to my 5th grader. He would think it was a fortune and you would get much better content.
UUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
How can you generalize content writers in India on the basis of one website?
Actually this was based on my experience with 4 different companies that claim to be “the best” in content writing that are based in India.
It would be like me studying the Indian language and then trying to write content for a website in Hindi….. Not being a native speaker my sentence structure and syntax would not be correct because I wouldn’t have an intimate understanding on how that language works…….
