I agree, but most are too cheap to do that. I am not talking just non-native speakers. Proof reading is WAAAAAAY down on the list of expenses of most webmasters, even though the sales pitch is THE MOST IMPORTANT part. Why go to the trouble of buying all that content, scripts and designs, hosting and traffic if you have a sales ad that is barely readable. Pics alone are not enough. Of course, a hot check can be a great sales tool but without good, clever ad text, you will spin your wheels. This is a very competitive market and there is free porn everywhere.

who are you to say what we should do?

If we are able to sell products with our broken "engrish", nobody fuckin cares if description was written in proper english or not

but if you'd sell at least half more of what you actually sell with a good english would that help..?!? :2 cents:

I hate bad english on sites. I am not perfect myself but it is hard for people from other countries who don't speak english. Whenever I come across 'foreign speak' sites, I have to laugh a little but when it comes down to it, the main selling point is what the surfer sees, not reads in most cases.

Grammar errors are a turn-on for many people...

This guy is the weakest attacker GFY has ever had... what a pathetic waste of GFY space.

Dear POed-poster Sirs,

Whats this English you speaker of thes.

Did I miss anything?

too lazy, too cheap

were is the broplem?

und warum lernen so wenig US webmaster DEUTSCH?
and how come so few US webmasters learn GERMAN?

Be glad they don?t :thumbsup
Gives you more opportunities in your market

Much like this guy is after ESL people I?m sure you have seen how funny US webmasters are when they hire a twit to translate into Danish/French/Deutsch and the likes, with Zero chance if finding the mistakes :1orglaugh

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh ... bingo :thumbsup

sounds like you hit another milestone of failure on your road to country music failure.

aaahhahaha.. lma:1orglaugho..

Oh wow, are you saying Plummer-Joe is a paranoid chauvinist?
Writers are essential in a good business but American English is considered by the British...a dialect of sorts.
Also Plummer-Joe writes poorly: COUTRY = COUNTRY, there's an extra YOU in there and EMPTY THEM BY CLOSE OF BUSINESS TOMORROW doesn't ring quite right.

Oh and before you ask, I'm gonna drag my sorry-ass carcass to a big cliff and jump off it just for you :)

my spun content reads better than this...

My highest earning single page mainstream site (fuck you im not linking it damnit) is FULL of spelling errors and grammar problemo's. So long as you just come across as a north american who can't spell, people will trust you. If you type like a russian who's still taking second grade english class, people will run away.

Also, I've noticed no real conversion ratio differences between sites with 100% perfect spelling and grammar, and sites with less than stellar writing. So long as you sound like you're from NA, people will come, and buy shit. Useless shit like funny tshirts and coffee cups... Is there anything people won't buy? :helpme
