Every day, billions of new articles, websites, and web pages are created to promote brands and increase sales<\/a> across every industry around the world.  <\/p>\n

But not all content is created equally. <\/p>\n

Some of them happen to have special words that draw customers toward the digital marketing channels<\/a> of a company.<\/p>\n

They are called “words that sell”<\/strong> and they can turn a bland headline that’s easily ignored into an attention-grabbing headline that customers click on. <\/p>\n

These words aren’t the only thing that guarantees a sale, of course. <\/p>\n

But when they are used in the right way, they can attract people interested in what you have to say.<\/p>\n

So, which words are the best sales drivers, and how can you use them? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Below are 10 of the most effective words that sell and the specific ways that they can help you succeed: <\/p>\n

1. Easy<\/h2>\n

Few words draw readers in the way ‘easy’ does. <\/p>\n

That’s because it covers so many bases. Anyone who’s looking for tips on writing blog posts<\/a> is going to prefer “5 easy ways to write great blog posts<\/em>” over that same headline without ‘easy’. <\/p>\n

The word ‘easy’ is attractive to readers<\/strong>, as it ensures they will be able to use the tips in the article without needing to learn complicated strategies.<\/p>\n

Similarly, using ‘easy’ to describe how simple it is to use a product makes that product more appealing to customers. <\/p>\n

‘Easy’ suggests straightforward. It implies there aren’t any confusing steps involved and customers associate this with saving time and effort. <\/p>\n

2. You<\/h2>\n

Consider the difference between “strengthening a<\/em> brand” and “strengthening your<\/em> brand<\/a>“. <\/p>\n

The first phrase is useful, but it’s not specific to you and can be easily overlooked. <\/p>\n

Addressing the reader directly makes it difficult for them to scroll past the content. <\/strong>A connection is made when a reader feels the information is personalized. <\/p>\n

So, ‘you’ is a powerful word that sells. It can take a generalized headline and instantly make it more relevant to readers. <\/p>\n

The word ‘you’ can pull readers in and make them feel included and recognized individually.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In an online atmosphere where you’re up against your competitors, it’s essential to grab your customers’ attention. <\/p>\n

And speaking directly to them is a sure-fire way to stand out.<\/p>\n

3. Best<\/h2>\n

Describing anything as the ‘best’ of its kind instantly draws the eye. <\/p>\n

Whether customers are going in with an optimistic attitude and trusting your product is the best or they’re skeptical and want to know why <\/em>you’re the best, you’ve got their attention.<\/p>\n

Much like with ‘easy’, when you label something as being the ‘best’, you’re making a promise. <\/strong><\/p>\n

You’re telling customers you’ve compared similar products. You’re letting them know that even when pitted against competitors, your product has proven to be superior. <\/p>\n

Your brand is promising that your customers are getting the most value for their money, effort, and time.<\/p>\n

For example, advertising your product as the best cloud management platform<\/a> can drive sales. <\/p>\n

Customers see the word ‘best’ and understand you’re aware <\/strong>of the existence and reach of competitors.<\/p>\n

You’re the best <\/em>option because your product performs better than your competition’s.<\/p>\n

4. Why<\/h2>\n

If your headline includes the word ‘why’, you are signaling to customers that you’ve got evidence to prove your service is the one they want. <\/p>\n

Using this type of question leads to concise and developed answers and explanations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

‘Why’ can also be used to introduce a new or soon-to-be-released service to your prospective clients. <\/p>\n

For example, the headline “Why you need to know about <\/em>anything as a service<\/em><\/a>” tells readers that you know all about XaaS and can explain why it’s important for them to learn about it, too.<\/p>\n

5. Free<\/h2>\n

There’s a lot of power in the word ‘free’.<\/p>\n

Consumers don’t always want to spend money on products or services if it’s their first time using a brand. <\/p>\n

Nobody likes spending too much money, especially not on something they’re trying for the first time. <\/p>\n

The reason ‘free’ is a great word that sells is that it tells customers right away<\/strong> that they can use your product or service without a commitment. <\/p>\n

Free trials or products are an investment in the belief that your brand is superior. <\/p>\n

Consumers will be attracted to the notion that they can try it first, but they also like the freedom in making the choice. <\/p>\n

If you’re sending out links as part of your SMS marketing<\/a> plan, include the word ‘free’ wherever applicable.<\/p>\n

Letting customers try your product from the comfort of their mobile device, for free,<\/strong> makes your product or service accessible and enticing.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

6. Now<\/h2>\n

This word that sells has a psychological effect on potential clients. <\/p>\n

By using ‘now’ in a title, you create a sense of urgency.<\/strong> And this has two positive effects:<\/strong><\/p>\n
