Web copy

A website is only as good as its content. Shabby copy is bad manners, and it's costly. Why? Because it turns people off and makes you look unreliable.

Responsive web design

Is your website mobile-responsive? No need to pay a fortune. I'll convert it for you at a very reasonable price.

Elegant landing pages

A quick call to action is what you want in an excellent landing page. A stand-alone page is built for fast results, and I know how to do it for you.

Stunning newsletters

Are you bored with writing your own newsletters week after week? I promise you I won't be bored when you let me write them for you.

The best blogs

It's all about exposure, and what better way to get yourself out there than regular blog articles. Don't know where to start? I do.

About Shire Web Writer

Margit Zsigmond

A mix of writing and web design skills gives me an edge when it comes to producing optimised web content.

I am Margit Zsigmond, and I live and work in the Sutherland Shire in Sydney, Australia. I started my writing career in 1990 as a technical communicator—that's a writer who produces all kinds of written material (user guides, procedures, brochures) in plain English, with the focus on ease-of-use.

Progressing to writing web content is a natural move for a technical communicator. The web is a very different medium to print, so learning a new way of communicating information has been an exciting addition to my skills. Over the years, I have taught others how to write for the web and shared my knowledge of plain English writing, website architecture, and user-centred design.

Website design has satisfied my creative urge and always inspires me to explore new ways of presenting information. When I was learning how to code, I used Notepad as my HTML editor. Dreamweaver and FrontPage were years away. I soon moved on to Javascript and cascading stylesheets, and began designing intranet and internet sites for various organisations around Sydney. I have worked with a number of web content management systems, and although they are supposed to make web maintenance easy, there are still times when you have to examine the HTML code to fix a problem or enhance a feature.

Some of my clients have been the NSW Department of Health, Health Technology, Housing NSW, Landcom, Brambles, Roads & Traffic Authority, Pioneer Concrete, Qantas, Caltex.
