We discussed just HOW important it is to align copy, design and development, and what comes first
Matt explained how to define your audience and how that translates to your website design and layout, as well as copy
Next, we explained how to prioritize different aspects of your website
Because there are SO many website platforms to choose from, Matt explained why you should (or shouldn’t) choose WordPress
I then dove into how to plan for and write the most important pieces of your web copy, including headlines
Matt explained why the fold is DEAD
We then wrapped up the intensive bootcamp with details on testing and iterating on your design, layout and copy
