Been working diligently to improve this site. This includes a new sitemap and improved SEO. Offering existing and future clients the best access possible to superlative freelance writing and editing matters because my clients’ business matters.

If your company Web site doesn’t show up on the first page or two of Google, you’re losing money.

With the Internet saturated with businesses battling for clients, persuasive site copy isn’t enough. A copywriter needs to know principles of search engine optimization (SEO) and work closely with Webmasters and graphic designers. Content throughout your site must consistently employ the keywords that best describe your product or service or else your clients will never find you.

A client of mine requested a site refresh. After noting that searches using industry-standard keywords placed the site five or six pages deep on Google, I outlined proven SEO strategies to boost his page rank without resorting to buying placement. By optimizing all site content, the updated site landed consistently on the front page of Google.

It’s no longer enough to have a Web site. Without top placement in search engine results, your site might as well not exist. Your customers know what they are searching for. Ensure they find it at your site and not your competitors’ by hiring a writer who knows SEO.

For Ethereal Pen Productions, 2008 proved to be a fantastic year . Business boomed. New clients came in from unexpected regions of the country. In fact, the client list now contains more businesses and individuals from out of state than in.

Word of mouth from clients continues to be the primary means of telling others about the professional copywriting and copyediting we provide. Thank you for making Ethereal Pen successful.

May you be richly blessed in 2009.

This month has been busy, busy, busy. To keep the office work separate from the writing and editing work, Ethereal Pen has a new business manager, Danei. She’s been excellent at keeping the office in line.

Thank you to all our clients, both new and old. We appreciate your business. Making clients happy is job number one.

If “happy” has not been your experience when dealing with freelancers, contact us at Ethereal Pen Productions. You’ll get outstanding results in record time for a price that won’t break your budget.
