About Nick Usborne.

Over the course of a writing career spanning thirty years, offline and then online, I have worked with dozens of major companies, including…

Citibank, Apple, Chrysler, Franklin Mint, TV Guide, Diners Club International, Looksmart, MSN, Ricoh, Yahoo!, The Getty Trust, The New York Times, Reuters, Encyclopedia Britannica and America Online.

During my years as a direct response copywriter I wrote direct mail by the ton, and earned more than my fair share of awards, both in Europe and North America.

In 1997 I abruptly stopped writing direct mail and have been working exclusively on writing online ever since. (I find it a lot more enjoyable.)

Online, I have written literally hundreds of articles for Clickz.com, MarketingProfs.com, iMediaConnection.com, Business 2.0 and other online publications.

I am also the author of ‘Net Words: Creating High-Impact Online Copy‘, a guide to the craft of online copywriting. Published in 2001, it’s still a good and valuable read today.

Recently I have stepped back from spending time as a copywriter and now focus more on writing guides, programs and course for others.

My first course, Copywriting 2.0, was written for anyone who wants professional-grade training in all aspects of online copywriting. This course is particularly popular among freelance copywriters who want to take advantage of the growing demand for copywriters who truly understand the Web.

My second course, How to Write Your Own Money-Making Website is the next step forward, and the “how-to” version of my book, New Path to Riches.

I will continue to explore new ways to help people profit from writing on the Web.
