Scale your content with SEO

Most of those who contact me for their freelance content writing needs have SEO in mind. While driving organic traffic is increasingly challenging in Google’s diluted landscape, drawing in-market visitors to your content is one of the best marketing assets.

I’ve been in the SEO profession long enough to know that what worked 15 years ago doesn’t always apply today. In short, your content needs to resonate and engage with humans to succeed. Targeting the right keywords is merely a fraction of the process.

Despite SEO practices being highly dynamic, there are a few fundamentals that stand the test of time.

  • Conduct keyword research and analyze search data to determine the best ways to connect with people who are actively searching for questions and solutions related to your business.
  • Assess how competitors and other websites position their content around target search themes of interest.
  • Determine the ideal structure or format for content to engage visitors and facilitate your objectives effectively.

Whether it’s long-form content tailored to educate your audience or short-form content designed to deliver a punchy answer and call to action, there are many ways to construct an SEO content strategy that works.   

As your freelance content writer, I can help you identify the best topics to write about, how to angle your content in a unique way, and how to craft your message to grab your visitors’ attention and keep them interested.

More importantly, I can help you determine how feasible it is to rank for certain keywords, the type of content that would succeed, and how long it would likely take to achieve meaningful results.

Engage your visitors with better web copy

The pages on your website are equally important as your blog and other content assets. Infused with SEO, these pages can also generate traffic to your website and funnel your visitors down a path that leads to conversion. 

Your web copy should speak the voice of your brand while addressing your audience’s pain points and presenting solutions to their problems. Unlike “content,” which is more intended to educate and inform readers, copy is tailored to persuade and sell your readers on what you have to offer.

There’s an art and science to copywriting. It’s what keeps people engaged when they visit your website and compels them to take action. Let me help articulate your brand’s offering in such a way that moves your readers in the right direction.

As an experienced web copywriter, I can help align your brand’s persona with its voice and messaging, conveying value to your readers. I can work with the wireframes of your pages’ designs, craft attention-grabbing headers, populate your image ALT tags, and fine-tune the metadata and internal linking to facilitate SEO and stronger engagement.

What’s it like to work with me?

Clear communication is key in any relationship, especially when it comes to doing business together. My goal is to deliver exceptional quality work that delivers on your expectations and achieves your short- and long-term objectives.

During the initial phases of your project, we can discuss details over email and video conferencing calls before we nail down the strategic vision and scope of work. Once we’re aligned, I’ll provide a detailed proposal that includes an outline of the project’s scope, key deliverables, timeline, and cost. 

For lean teams, I can handle the ongoing implementation of the work I deliver. Often based on a streamlined approval process, I can take the burden off your team of uploading content, sourcing images, and executing the overall publishing process.

For ongoing projects, I can also track the performance of your investment with me. Data from Google Analytics is helpful in measuring progress, but it’s not required. I also use tools like Ahrefs to track the performance of content, SEO, and other strategic initiatives.

If you’re somewhat attuned to the world of writing and technology, then you’re probably wondering if I use ChatGPT. The short answer to that question is not very often. Sure, some AI tools are helpful, but I never let AI do the writing for me. 

Some of the tools I use as a freelance content writer include:

  • Ahrefs: This is my favorite tool for SEO analysis, keyword research, and performance reporting.
  • Grammarly: An essential content editing assistant that identifies and fixes typos, grammatical errors, plagiarism, and potential generative AI patterns.
  • Perplexity: My go-to AI tool for conducting in-depth research and discovering legitimate sources of data and information.
  • Google: In addition to using Google Search to evaluate SEO competitors, I use Google Docs to deliver content and collaborate with clients.

I also work with tools like Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and Google Ads, depending on the scope and objectives of the project.
