Why You Need SEO

When your main purpose of putting up a site is to sell products or services online, one of your first goals should be to attract as many potential customers to your site as you can. Of course you need to make sure your site will be able to keep your visitor’s attention and interest (enough for them to explore your pages and check out what you’re offering) and to relay your business message clearly. This can be done by creating a site that’s neat and attractive, utilizing a visitor-friendly layout, having direct-to-the-point web content, and applying effective marketing strategies. But let’s first focus on becoming visible in the Internet community and getting potential customers to find you.

Your web site has to use certain techniques and technologies to make search engines (like Google) rank your site high on their results list when people do a search for your kind of business. (Because, admit it or not, people no longer bother to look into the fifth or the 100th page of the results list.) This strategy is what you call “search engine optimization.” Optimized web pages increase your search engine rankings, your site’s traffic levels, and, ultimately, the potential earnings from your website or your online business.

So that is why SEO is important.

This strategy involves having your pages contain keyword phrases that match what your target audience is actually typing into search queries. That is also why you need to find out the exact keyword phrases your potential clients would probably use to look for information about the products and services they need (and which you offer). These keyword phrases should be used throughout your site’s text or content, anchor text of links, and other significant areas of the web pages code.

Optimizing a site or a page may get too technical, that is why many business and site owners hire SEO specialists who do the job for them. In most cases, SEO may be costly, but the end result should be worth it. People will find your site easily and will try out your products and services. What you have spent on SEO will come back to you a hundredfold in the form of profit.

Now we don’t really want to detail and burden you with the quite technical aspects of optimizing a site. If you are interested in improving your Internet presence by having your site optimized, please don’t hesitate to contact us at writersdirect@yahoo.com

The Benchmarks of Quality Content

Quality content is difficult to quantify.  Writing is subjective, and what may be a masterpiece to you may not be up to another person’s standards.  However, there are generally accepted rules in professional writing that pretty much defines how quality content should be.

Original.  Plagiarism is stealing, and that is plain and simple.

Short and concise.  No beating around the bush.  Say what you want to say and say it right away.

Persuasive.  Most of us write to make other people believe in what we have to say.  This is not only true about advertising and sales copy, but also for everything you put into words.  A short story, for instance, is effective if your readers can relate and if you touch them with your story.

Effective.  Write with a purpose and everything that comes out of your pen will be great.  Tell a story, sell something, describe a technical process.  The purpose not only organizes your thoughts, it makes for effective writing as well.

Why are you guys so cheap??!

Most of the time, our clients ask us why we are inexpensive.  Here’s why:

1. We have always believed that quality content need not to be ridiculously expensive.  Our heart goes out to site owners who would like to improve their content, students struggling with their academic load, and people who just need a push in the right direction.  These are the people who are hard-pressed and milked dry by other writing services.
2. Believe it or not, we do this for fun.  Our team is composed of university-educated individuals who have started out writing for a living and then found themselves branching out into other professions, other careers and in different industries.  So the truth is, we miss writing.  And while our personal blogs serve the purpose, we miss the challenge that comes in writing about things we never would normally write about. There’s always something new to learn from every writing project we take.
3. You, the client, will talk directly to the writer, cutting away the middleman.  Most writing services you go to are only fronts.  These “fronts” either hire mediocre writers (whom they pay only a fraction of their total earnings), or charge you exorbitant fees for quality work by professional writers.  We take pride in the fact that you will be talking directly to the writer who will work with you from day 1 until your project is done and delivered.
4. We do not invest in extras.  No fancy Web sites, no paid advertising.  You save because we save, simple as that.

Our Packages

Every writing requirement is different.  To make things easier, however, we have come up with packages to help you determine just how cost- effective and inexpensive our services are.

Please note that this is just a guide.  For the most part, our final quote will be the same or similar to the prices listed here.  Quotes may change according to the project’s level of difficulty, the time needed to complete the task, the amount of research we need to do, and the urgency.
