Why Hire a Freelance Writer? 10/25/2011

There are many reasons to hire a freelance writer.


You can get professional copy for a lot less than it would cost to hire an agency.  And, most businesses today are on tight budgets, so a freelance writer can fit nicely into their business plan and budget. I consistently target small to medium sized businesses because they are really the ones that need the expertise of a freelance writer.  Freelance writers are usually independent contractors who work from a home office.  Therefore, there are no overhead costs associated with hiring one.  Freelance writers do not require benefits -- a big cost savings for businesses-- they pay their own taxes (no employee taxes are required) and they can serve almost any industry.  I have written about health care, pets, computers -- just about everything.

Currently, I am writing SEO copy for a business.  SEO is short for Search Engine Optimization, and is the latest trend in freelance writing.  SEO writing is very difficult and takes a lot of creativity.  The client typically gives you one to three keywords to write about, then sits back and relaxes while the SEO writer uses her creativity to create SEO copy targeted toward the client's industry and customers.  It is basically marketing writing on the heavy side.

The client then posts the no-byline article on his or her Web site and watches the search engines go crazy for their copy.  Also important in SEO writing is making it so good that people link to it, which search engines also like.

But, as a freelance writer, no two days are the same.  One day I may be writing SEO copy, the next day a press release.  I also write blogs, e-newsletters, annual reports, articles, and much more. 

So, if you want great copy at a fraction of the cost contact me at voberry@gmail.com or call me at 703-901-0041.  If you don't like my copy, you don't have to pay.  All my work is guaranteed.
