The first website I ever wrote was for an imaginary bank. I made up a whole town, complete with community events, a fictional corporate history, and even fake executives. It was for a service IBM offered that allowed small banks to easily set up their own site using a template. I’ve gone on to write copy for many more. Most of these, because of the dynamic nature of the Internet, are long gone. But here are a few of my favorites.
In three separate projects for eBay, I’ve helped tell their users how to make the most of all the site has to offer. So whether you’re buying or selling autos, art and antiques, or anything else, I hope I made the experience easier
