    Bad promo writing

    Dear Affiliate Program Webmasters,

    Any use of more than one exclamation point in the description of a scene constitutes bad writing. It is rare you should use one at all.

    Love,

    Your Affiliates

    Seriously, take a peek at Jakob Nielsen's excellent essay on writing for the web.

    http://www.nngroup.com/articles/how-...ad-on-the-web/

    I am convinced that webmasters who switch from !-filled marketing-speak to at least minimally decent writing (or better yet, what Nielsen suggests) will experience a nice boost in traffic from affiliates using said promo content.

    O M G !

    My pet peeve! I just bought a book that I was waiting for! Sigh! It's almost unreadable! Seriously! This author loves those damn things!

    I exaggerated a bit, but that book is loaded with the damn things. I don't understand "writers" love affair with those...

    if more than one "!" is bad writing then I must be completely evil! - LOL

    I'll try to restrain from using those but it will limit Me here.

    Dear Affiliate Program Webmasters,

    The correct use of an exclamation point does not excuse poor writing in the previous sentence.

    Love,

    Example: Tall hung hottie Mikael gets his big thick meaty cock serviced from horny little fit Lukas, who slurps on his dick in different positions, before getting his own stiff cock swallowed and ass fingered then fucked by Mikael, who spunks a heavy load into Lukas's mouth. Tasty!
