Copywriter Recommendations?
-
There are a handful of pages, I'd like to get a fresh perspective on content-wise. They rank well and get traffic. However, we are not seeing the conversions we want to see, so I'm thinking a fresh pair of eyes could help write something more compelling. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on pricing (yes, feel free to self-promote)?
Thanks,
Ruben
P.S. I'm really not looking for any ESL elance type solutions unless there are some strong writing samples.

Thank you both! I appreciate it.
Happy Friday,
Ruben

I would be hesitant to trust this type of work to anyone.
So, if I wanted fresh ideas, I would visit the websites of firms who have turned legal services into a manufacturing process. I would especially look at PPC landing pages of firms that I felt were especially tech savvy. I would spend a couple mornings looking at these, following their clickpaths to conversion and watching for kickass ideas that inspire me to use as a starting point with the goal of making something even better. I might get consultation from someone like SiteTuners.
I think that I would get better results this way than by hiring a person who knows little about my business.

Hi Ruben,
No self-promotion here But I am going to recommend a friend, try http://www.kwasistudios.com/about/team/ - I met Woj at MozCon this year and he's super smart and an upstanding guy and he has a great copywriter on his team. Tell him I sent you He's on Twitter of course - @WojKwasi - His group is based in Adelaide, Australia.
If he can't do it I'm sure he can recommend someone.
Hope that's helpful!

What's a good WPM for a copywriter?
My copywriter is currently hitting 2,100 - 2,500 words over three articles on an average day. He is employed full time, 7.5 hours a day with a 30 minute lunch break (He has the choice of a 1 hour lunch and leaving 30 minutes later). Let's say only 6 hours are spent researching and writing: 2,500 words / 360 minutes = 6.9WPM The content is generally rewritten from other websites with a little bit of unique content, on topics that are usually not complicated - the articles themselves are along the lines of a broad summary of what the other website offers/does. The content I receive is fairly generic and doesn't really say anything more than the source material. No formatting is done and generally I receive very large wall-of-text paragraphs. The content is written in one program and then copy/pasted into word to be delivered. All keywords to use are provided, as well as ~50 words and phrases related to the topic. The ~50 words and phrases are usually presented in a list ("they offer x, x, x, x and x, as well as x, x and x" etc), so this part of the task shouldn't be taking long. I am trying to gauge whether this is typical and what I should expect from someone who does this each day, as from previous roles I know more is definitely doable, but as for whether it's doable every working day I'm not sure. What do you usually receive from your copywriters for a day of work?

Any recommendations on a Content Marketing Firm?
I have used several and had some good results. Am wondering if I can find one that is more cost effective than who I am using now, as they just doubled their prices.

From a company perspective; would you recommend using a service like postloop to acquire additional blog comments through paying users.
I’m always hesitant when it comes to purchasing comments but it seems like a natural approach. Is this something that Google would take notice and/or frown upon? - Anything we should avoid? Any additional information would be helpful. Thank you in advance.

Content Spinner Tool??? Worth? Recommendations?
Hi all !! We have different websites in the english language (UK, IE, US, etc...), but we focus our content strategy (landing pages) in just one of them. We were thinking about using a Content spin tool to use this content in the other websites and give them an extra push in terms of SEO (content is the king :)). Did you have any idea if they work fine? Did you have any experience with them? Can you recommend any? Are they tools really worth or they are not working fine and after the spin a full review (and probably some re-write) is necessary? Of course I´m talking about the paid ones.... Not even thinking about the free tools 😉 Thanks for your help in advance !!!

Finding a copywriter
Hi seomoz, This is not quite a SEO issue, but I have a feeling you may be able help. English is a second language to me and copywriting is not my favorite sport. So, I've decided to find a copywriter. But have no clue how to look for one. I have hired ton of programmers, designers, and other technical resources in the past. People that have concrete skills - programmer where I could say do X, Y & Z and I can check if X, Y & Z were done - are no problem for me to hire. It still takes a long time, but that's not an issue. I know I want the copywriter to write in certain style (style of seomoz.org, woot.com or doubleyourdating.com). How do you define writing like that? Can writing like that can be defined? And put into requirements? Do you need 'customer avatar' or 'marketing voice' document or something similar? How do I find a kick ass copywriter? Optimisticly hoping there is a better answer than just 'test bulkload of them'! Thank you,
