Description
Hello!
WordAgents.com is looking to grow our network of American freelance writers. We are currently searching for freelance writers that can deliver consistently high-quality content on-time and according to spec.
Our Services
We are a content creation agency that specializes in search engine optimized content. Our clients order blog posts, website content, eCommerce content, and SEO affiliate content (product reviews) from us so they can use them to rank on Google for their defined target keywords.
Here are a few examples of content we create regularly:
- Blog Posts: These types of articles are informational in nature. They include “how-to” content, info-based articles, buyer’s guides, updates & news about the client’s company, and list-style articles.
- Website Content: When clients launch new websites, they need all of the static content that will appear on each of the new site’s pages. This can include homepage content, service descriptions, and “About Us” pages.
- eCommerce Content: Websites that sell physical products and services need an enticing copy. Our eCommerce clients use WordAgents to create both product category descriptions and product descriptions.
- Reviews: We work with tons of affiliate marketers who have a never-ending need for individual product/service reviews, as well as “roundup reviews” that provide several product recommendations within a single category.
Writers within the WordAgents network need to be comfortable creating each type of content listed above.
Who We’re Hiring
WordAgents is seeking freelance writers that:
- Are Team Players: Our writers need to work with several different members of our Management staff during the production of client work.
