I'd use glyphius to research both articles, may be interesting! Yes I agree your rewrite is much better, buying content can be awkward because language is a very personal thing.

The excellent rewrite clarifies the emotional benefit to the consumer and also creates a vivid mental image that may motivate him or her to make the purchase. Agreed.

Have you used it? Do you really find it to be valuable? I was going to ask about it, and then as I started reading comments, I see that a couple of the posters mentioned it. I don't think I'm a horrible writer, but do you think Glyphius will give me an edge? Thanks! -Lee I see that a couple of you mention the software Glyphius. Have you used it?

What he says is that glyphius has got a database of the best headlines produced in history built in, and then it compares your headline thus coming with a score. According to general reviews on the web it really works, but my point is that we can easily test headlines before marketing them so why dont they do it before putting out in the media. Rajeev Hi

Mine is that professional copywriters, who should use words with great care, are frequently sloppy, and no one catches their errors. But I don't understand what point you are trying to make.
