Freelance Web & SEO Copywriter: Brighton & London

Let’s make your copy better

My clients often call me because something isn’t working.

So maybe you’re looking for a copywriter because:

  • Your new website looks great and gets hits, but traffic isn’t converting to business.
  • People are reading your new brochure, but not ‘getting’ what you do.
  • Your website doesn’t appear high in search results.
  • You want to get more from the web, perhaps using social media to spread your messages.

So how can I write for your business?

Okay, so you’re wondering how I write for a multitude of different businesses, and how I will write for you.

Firstly, I should mention that I have written copy for:

  • Gift companies
  • Public sector agencies
  • Web developers
  • Designers
  • Artists
  • Retailers
  • Financial service providers
  • Medical service companies
  • Housing associations
  • Software developers
  • Marketing agencies
  • Social networks
  • Web applications
  • and much more!

Letting your copywriter get to know you

Clearly, I don’t know everything about everything, so before I write your copy I’ll need to spend time getting to know you and your business. This is an easy process, generally involving a meeting over coffee or a phone call.

Good copy takes two

Producing great copy requires two things: you and me.

Your input provides the basic information, the essentials of:

  • What your business does
  • Why your customers choose you
  • What benefits you offer customers

While I provide:

  • Writing skill
  • An understanding of the web
  • SEO magic
  • Marketing and advertising knowledge
  • Powers of persuasion

Together, we’ll produce crisp copy that engages your reader and drives them to act.

Woah! I’ve never hired a copywriter before…

That’s fine, many of my clients had never used a copywriter before they found me, so I can help you through the process.

Here’s what happens when you engage a copywriter:

  • You explain what you need.
  • I provide a quote (your quote has a fixed price, so you know exactly what you’ll be paying) and an outline of when I can complete your work.
  • You ask me to proceed.
  • We discuss your business in greater detail. You may have old copy that I can use for reference, or I may ask you to make notes about any complex services you offer.
  • On the agreed date, I get to work.
  • I email you a first draft.
  • You have a few days to think about it.
  • You email me with any required changes.
  • I make your requested amendments.
  • Your copy is complete.
