That’s right; I’m a copywriter who uses Dragon Naturally Speaking to create my own content.

While the software takes some time (a few hours) to train to properly recognize your voice, the process is so simple and intuitive you won’t even know you’re working. The software has you read a series of stories, articles, or manual excerpts and learns your voice as you speak–all you have to do is read aloud.

Get your copy of Dragon Naturally speaking today and be on the fast track to quality content creation.

Once the software is trained, you can use it to dictate in to any Microsoft product (Outlook, Word, etc.) And the best part is that the software never stops learning. Everytime you use the program, Dragon Naturally Speaking analyzes your speech patterns and adapts itself to more quickly understand what it is you are saying.

One of the coolest features is Dragon Naturally Speaking’s versatility. If you use a digital audio recorder a lot, I use an Olympus WS-110, you can pop the recorder into your USB port, upload the audio file to your hard drive, and Dragon Naturally Speaking will convert the audio on the file into text!

But Dragon Naturally Speaking doesn’t just limit you to dictation. Versions 9 and newer offer a wide range of spoken commands which you can use to control pretty much any aspect of your PC. You can open new windows, launch software programs, browse the web, and even play ping-pong using only voice contol!

Never before has affordable voice recognition software been so fast, so accurate, and so easy to use.

Dragon Naturally Speaking is so far advanced that sometimes its easy to forget your speaking to your desktop (or laptop) and not the computer on board the USS Enterprise.

It’s generally promoted as the best way to do this but with web inhabitants becoming much savvier are traditional squeeze pages outdated?

The answer is most definitely yes. Most squeeze pages suffer from poor design, poor layout, repetitive themes, and very few of them actually standout from the crowd. If you want to learn what you’re doing wrong, have a look at this.
