Do you feel like your prospective clients understand what you do?

Do you find that they keep coming to you with the same questions over and over?

…Is your service offering clear?

There’s a reason some companies have full-time copywriters! If your written collateral isn’t netting you the response you want, perhaps it’s time for some copy overhaul.

We can’t walk you through freshening up your copy step-by-step, but we can get you part of the way there.

This article will offer copy tips and tricks alongside simple examples of good copy.

SaaS Website Copywriting Best Practices For 2025 And Beyond

We could pile up copywriting tips so high you’d never see the top, but it wouldn’t necessarily be much help.

If you’re writing for a SaaS site, there are some specific ideas you should keep in mind when you sit down to write content. 

1. It All Starts With the Headline

If your headline isn’t going to convert, it might not matter how great the copy inside is. 

SaaS copywriters should work to select high-converting headlines. They need to grab attention, sell what you have to offer, and help share a little information about your offering. 

  • Use SEO keywords exactly as searchers would use them
  • Make alluring offers (solutions, answers, etc.)
  • Ask something
  • Be clear and short
  • Don’t forget to make use of subheadlines 

2. Look Into Psychographic Data

If you want to find out more about what psychographic data is, we can point you towards one of our blog posts that gets a little more in-depth. Some of the easiest places to source data like this is via:

  • Surveys: Surveys allow you to directly ask your audience what influences them
  • Social media: Social listening tools offer insight into audience motivations

3. Paint Pictures in People’s Minds

The imagination is a seriously powerful thing. Your readers’ imaginations can do more for your brand than your copy can. This is only true if you have strong copy to get an audience’s mental cogs turning, though. 

If you’re trying to convince someone to buy email automation software, spend some time laying out how laborious the concept of manual email can really be. Paint a picture of how your software simplifies that process. 

Picture it: you’ve run through every video streaming service you subscribe to and you still can’t find a single thing to watch…

4. Use Emotional Power Words

Software isn’t always the most exciting thing on its own– and especially not to consumers. Copywriters for SaaS sites can and should leverage emotional power words to help readers connect with service offerings.

Studies have long shown us that even simple words and phrases have the power to heavily influence our emotions; and, since our emotions heavily influence our thoughts and buying decisions, it’s easy to see how great copy should get emotional.

  • Blissful
  • Triumphant
  • Faithful
  • Fool-proof
  • Burnout
  • Failure
  • Jaw-dropping
  • Spellbinding
  • Resent
  • Vulgar
  • Frenzy
  • Longing

If you’re longing for a moment away from the frenzy of day-to-day life, we understand the burnout…

5. Try Out the F pattern

There’s something you can consider while you design a website (and the copy that goes on it) that will help your audience understand your content better. Studies show that our eyes tend to move the same way across web pages, no matter where we are on the web. 

  • We look at webpages in an “F” shape
  • The F begins with the top left of a page (which normally contains a logo)
  • Then, a reader’s eyes move to the right towards navigation options
  • Next, readers look down and to the right again– this is where they expect to see important text and calls to action
  • Readers finish by looking down the rest of a page

As an SaaS company, it’s easy to leverage this: put crucial copy and CTAs on the second horizontal line of the giant “F” you imagine over your webpage. 

6. Talk Like Your Customer

No one really wants to hear you talk about your offerings. They know you want to sell them something. People would much rather hear about the benefits of something from someone who talks just like them. It’s one reason why things like reviews are such powerful marketing tools.

With that in mind, the best copy for your website will sound like copy your customers could have written. It’ll need to be a little cleaner, of course– and it’ll be driven by some specific motives, like increasing sales– but…

  • You should use customer language in your copy (when it’s possible)
  • You can interview your customers or look through reviews to determine how your customers speak

7. Keep It Clean and Clear

If you feel like you just read the word “clean” twice, you did. Clean copy is extremely important in any content strategy for SaaS websites. It’s totally great to shoot for funny or narrative copy– but if you can’t pull it off neatly, don’t worry about the extras.

The more customer language you use, the more leeway you have here. If you can’t use customer language very effectively, then it may actually make your copy much less clear. Try having someone else read your writing before it goes live. They can help you boost readability. 

8. Work Towards a Goal

Every word of copy on your site should serve a purpose. If you didn’t write something with a goal, it probably doesn’t need to be sitting on your SaaS website.

Some site pages come with clear-cut goals already attached to them. An “About Us” page, for example, exists to help readers learn more about a brand and its offerings. Solutions pages often serve to build trust with readers (especially as part of a larger SEO strategy). Product pages exist to offer product information and sell products. 

9. Consider Target Keywords & Search Intent

Another powerful SaaS copywriting tip you must practice religiously is considering target keywords and the search intent behind them.  

Target Keywords 

These are the words and phrases your target audience uses when searching for your brand or the solution you provide.

Your content must be created around these keywords. And to optimize your pages for greater discoverability, make sure to include your target keyword in your:

  • Header tags: This includes your title tag, heading, and at least one subhead.
  • Intro: Use your target keywords in the first paragraph, preferably within the first 150 words of a page/post.
  • Conclusion: Mention your target keyword in the last paragraph of your copy. This helps validate the context of your content, particularly to search engines. 
  • Body: Your target keyword must also be used in your body copy. Make sure to do so naturally and without stuffing your piece with the keyword, making it sound unnatural.
  • URL: Including your keywords in your URL is a crucial aspect of a winning technical SEO strategy.
  • Meta descriptions: Meta descriptions are a snippet that describes what a page is about. Including your keywords in your meta descriptions is important to your SEO.
  • Image names and ALT tags: Adding your keywords to your image file names and ALT text helps search engines know what your content is about. Also, images get indexed, making image search another way people can find your content.

A good SaaS copywriter knows the value of target keywords and the power of using them strategically in their copy.  

Search Intent

Keyword research alone won’t help you get to the top of the SERPs. Particularly if you’re in a competitive niche, you’ll need a little extra sauce.

And that sauce is search intent.

Search intent refers to the reason behind a search query. There are 4 main types of search intent you need to know and focus on as you create your SaaS website content:

  • Informational intent: is displayed by searchers who are looking for information about a brand or product.
  • Navigational intent: is displayed when users are looking for a particular website or page. 
  • Commercial intent: is displayed when a searcher is looking for information about a product they want to buy soon. 
  • Transactional intent is displayed when searchers are looking for information to complete an action at that moment.

Understanding search intent is essential as it helps you create content that fulfills users’ needs. As a result, you’ll enjoy lower bounce rates and higher conversions.

10. Focus on Solutions & Use Cases — Not Just Features

Most SaaS brands make one huge mistake when creating content for their websites — they focus on product features.

Fair and fine, your product may have some game-changing features. But this doesn’t mean anything if your target audience can’t connect to these powerful features. 

That’s why, instead of focusing on features in your copy, you should shine the spotlight on:

Solutions

Showcasing what your product can do is more powerful than describing the features you’ve included in your product. 

For example, if you’re selling an SEO tool, showing users that they can create rich snippets and boost their on SERPs is more impactful than telling them your tool has a schema generator.

People want to know what they can benefit from your product. In most cases, they don’t want to know what your product can do.

Use Cases 

Besides the problems your product can solve (solutions), you should also prioritize use cases over features.

Use cases are examples of what your customers can do with your product. Showing them the different problems they solve is a fantastic way of presenting your product as the hero in their story.

Showing users what they can do with your product is more beneficial to your marketing than telling them the powerful features you’ve packed in it.

This is why, as much as features may be important, they don’t sell. If you want to boost conversions and drive sales, your SaaS website copy must focus on solutions and use cases.

How to Know if You Need SaaS Copywriting Services

Deciding whether you need SaaS copywriting services can feel like trying to diagnose your car’s problem based on a mysterious dashboard light. The reality? If your content isn’t attracting leads, converting visitors, or making you the go-to authority in your niche, it might be time to bring in reinforcements.

How to Tell if You Should Keep Things In-House or Hire an Agency

Keeping content creation in-house works great if you have the time, resources, and experts on staff who can consistently produce high-quality work. But let’s be real—not every company has the bandwidth to juggle daily operations and crank out polished copy that resonates with your audience. Hiring an agency lets you offload the heavy lifting to seasoned pros who can dedicate their focus to elevating your brand’s messaging.

Ask yourself:

  • Do you have the resources to train, manage, and retain in-house copywriters?
  • Are you seeing the ROI you want from your current approach?
  • Is content creation draining time from core business priorities?

If any of those questions hit home, outsourcing could be your best move.

How to Vet a Potential Partner

Not all copywriting agencies are created equal. The right partner will understand your industry, speak the language of your audience, and align with your goals. Here’s how to vet your options:

  • Industry expertise: Do they have experience writing for SaaS and your specific vertical?
  • Portfolio and results: Can they show proven results in improving engagement, conversions, or SEO metrics?
  • Process clarity: Do they offer a transparent, collaborative process?
  • Cultural fit: Can they integrate smoothly with your team and values?

Don’t be afraid to ask for case studies or references. A good partner will be eager to show their track record.

Benefits of Working with a Partner

Bringing in SaaS copywriting experts is like hiring a personal trainer for your content—it’s all about targeted improvements that deliver measurable results. Here’s what you can gain:

  • Expertise that dives deep: SMEs craft content that doesn’t just sound good—it’s accurate, insightful, and valuable to your audience.
  • Efficiency: Professionals bring faster turnarounds without sacrificing quality, freeing up your team’s time.
  • Scalability: Need a content blitz for a product launch? An agency has the resources to handle it.
  • SEO power: The right partner understands how to seamlessly integrate SEO strategies to boost organic traffic.
  • Fresh perspective: Sometimes, an outside viewpoint can uncover angles or gaps you didn’t even know existed.

Working with a partner can amplify your content strategy and help you focus on what matters most—growing your business.
