Richard Bayan, Famous Advertising Copywriter and Author of Words That Sell, Conducts a Modest Experiment in Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

Welcome to my SEO experiment. I, Richard Bayan, the author of Words That Sell and webmaster of The Official Richard Bayan Page, am deliberately loading this page with keywords and phrases that will boost its visibility on search engines like Google. SEO is all the rage right now. In fact, sometimes I, Richard Bayan, the author of Words That Sell, find myself wondering if anyone still cares about the fine points of creating compelling, reader-friendly online advertising copy or web content... content that actually makes use of words that sell. Because I, Richard Bayan, believe that SEO, taken to extremes, does NOT make for compelling, reader-friendly online advertising copy or web content.

Sure, this page might help you find my site, The Official Richard Bayan Page, more easily than you would if I, Richard Bayan, hadn't written it. But if you hire me (Richard Bayan) to write your next web project, I promise that I, Richard Bayan, would never let it read like this. I, Richard Bayan, will load it with words that sell and make sure the search engines still rank it near the top.

Now that you've found my site, The Official Richard Bayan Page, I, Richard Bayan, invite you to explore the other pages and discover what Richard Bayan, famous advertising copywriter and the author of Words That Sell, can do to help you and your business. Take it from me, Richard Bayan: SEO helps, but an online business does not live by SEO alone. You always need, um, words that sell.

Thank you from the bottom of my (Richard Bayan's) heart.

Using words that sell can enable an ad to be found on the internet without much ado, however, once it has been found do you really want to continue with the thread of reasoning which took you there? As for me, I'd rather go read the Times business pages, and I don't do that sort of thing, as it makes me think that things don't add up all that well on the comprehension front after all.

Dear Mr. Bayan,
I am a student at John Glenn High School of Walkerton,IN. I am doing a report over a career I find interesting. I hoped that you would be a great source for my report. I have plenty of information, but I really need personal experiences from someone who filled this type of position. I hope to hear from you soon. Thank you.
