Recommendations for Content Creators/Editors

Hello, I'm looking to add some content to my website and I am looking to see if anyone has recommendations for content creators/editors.  I'm looking to personally generate some blog posts for my website and would like to hire someone to proofread them, format them into more reader-friendly formats, and do any SEO tweaking that's required.  I'd like to keep my personal style of writing but would also like someone who understands where we can plug in some SEO keywords and could proofread some of my writing.  I'm not bad, but I'm sure I can make some improvements before my articles go live.

Has anyone had a good experience with content creators and or editors?  I'd love to provide some work if someone has someone they'd like to promote.  


Sincerely,

Matt

Hey guys.

The best content marketing really is not by hiring content providers to fill your site, regardless how good they are, think they are, claim to be.

Here is how I write content to my site:

I interview sellers. When they call me I have a pen and paper ready and scribble down key points from our conversation.

After the conversation I have a list of points.

  1. Things they didn't understand (how it works)
  2. Doubts they had (why did they doubt I was real)
  3. What their concerns are
  4. What they liked
  5. Keywords they typed in finding my site.
  6. and a lot more

Based on this list I have an endless supply of topics to write to not only boost my SEO, but more importantly to boost my conversion.

MOST (I really mean ALL) content providers do not give a POOP about your conversion. They get paid to write 40 words and to hell with you after that.

See this is the mistake EVERYONE makes when it comes to SEO.

They ONLY look at their site. "Ohh I need backlinks, ohh I need content ohh I need citation".

Wrong.

It is not just about having what you need to have for google to love you.. you need to be BETTER than the BEST site in your market. 

You would NEVER beat me with my content if you have  "company" do it for you. And if you can't beat me... this simply means you will not be ranking 1 and then why do you bother at all?

You can not write good content without KNOWING WHAT YOUR TRAFFIC WANTS TO READ!

The only way to know what your traffic is struggling with, is asking them directly. Does your content provider company do this?

No?

Well it is quite useless then.. IF there is someone in your market that does it the right way!
