Copywriting
Made-to-measure copywriting services. Close adherence to customer requirements. Search engine optimization (SEO) friendly. Specific document structures, including titles, lead-ins, answers and read-on details. I use a direct writing style for efficient and informative output.
I branched out as a copywriter after editing hundreds of articles for other freelance copywriters, which gave me the impetus and confidence to write my own articles.
I write paid-for articles about lotteries, gambling, video games, technology, books and many other topics.
Copywritten articles typically range from 1,000 to 3,000 words. My fees include post-editing, adding extra text as required, removing/adding segments and working with other copywriters to get articles up to customer standard.
