More Selling Words: Spotlight on the Commentators

October 25th, 2007 · 2 Comments

The post on 25 Best Selling Words got such a good response that I decided to share some commentator ideas with you, rather than leave them buried in the comments. One commentator even used some of the words to create linky love.

Here’s the commentator feedback:

  • Tammi from Drawing on Words suggested that we remove “tested” from the selling words and add “effective” and “reliable.”
  • Vivien Quek from Versa Creations added “No. 1,” and “trusted” to our list.
  • Mihaela Lica from eWritings Online Public Relations had no words to add, but did offer this sage advice: “25 words: the magic ingredients. Handle with care or you might end up selling more than you can deliver.”

Thanks guys! Reading through your comments I can’t believe I left out so many selling words. (And I had sincerely tried to list all that I could think of, too!)

    Both this and the original post gave me lots of great ideas for creating catchy blog headlines, which I could definitely use to spice up my normally technical topics — thanks for the tips!

    LOL, Laura. You are too kind. I actually included my selling words in the “advice.” I should probably be more specific. “Best” is a cliche already. I would replace it with trustworthy, good, reliable or something else in this direction. Then I would add to the list words like “proven” “results” “deliver” “promise”
