There isn't much to tell. The articles are sold! Now I just have to wait til they put money in my paypal account. Now this is copywriting, so I don't have my name on the byline and there isn't recognition shown on the paper. However, I can now boast copywriting and Search Engine Optimization experience, both of which are fabulous in the freelance market. Tons of people all over the internet are looking for people to enhance their pages with keyword rich articles.
They (it is a blah sort of "they," an organization which I don't even know the name of) would like me to build some more SEO articles for them. One for a site, antique-trader.co.uk and another site antique-warehouse.co.uk. Now these probably won't be knock-your-socks-off articles, seeing as they're about antiques. Rather fun trying to creatively sculpt certian words into makeshift articles, however taxing on the brain they might be.
Mostly what it takes to write SEO articles is an intuitive mind as well as a willingness to give up creative word choice. These people just want the word, and nothing but the word. This helps search engines to locate their site and put it higher up the search engine's hit list. There usually has to be a willingness to research the subject at hand, seeing as most people don't know about Dragon Naturally Speaking 7, for instance. With writing SEO's there also has to be a willingness to repeat yourself. Over and over. They want the word in there. So combining the research plus the word(s), you use creativity to make an article which has content enough to satisfy your editors, which reaches the readership, and which above all, makes sense.
And what doesn't make much sense to me is why my trainers postponed my Chunk E. Cheese training until next week. How does that look on them? Not very good, my friends, not very good. Until tomorrow, yours truly.
