Online proofreading service
-
We are mostly writing our own article but need a helping hand proof reading and putting the final touch on the articles.
Any ideas to online services offering this?

HI
Thanks for the valid comments. Logo corrected already
I just wrote you a mail with a few question in regards to proofing service.
Thanks again for the help

Thanks Ryan,
It's the part of my former life that seems to follow me around, so it's a good way for me to satisfy my overwhelming urge to copy edit everything on the internet!

Hi Fredrik,
I took a look at the site you have listed in your profile - you might want to add an "s" to "cost" in the text beneath your logo
It looks as though your main problems are spelling, typos and the odd runaway train of thought!
I'm not big on shameless plugs, but will post this one anyway since the link actually includes a "first page or post free" offer for SEOmoz Pro Members.
The site is Little MisSpeller (apologies to anyone offended by the self-promotion). You'll find a short description of appropriate skills and experience there.
As Ryan mentioned, there are a lot of services out there and it is really a matter of finding the one that will work best for you.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Thanks for the great tips.
Lets say I produce the raw content, you know any good online service that can take that and apply your point 1 -4 on it?

When you proofread an article, the question to ask is, from what perspective? If I had my wish, every article I produced would be proofread by 4 people:
1. An expert on the topic being discussed. A doctor, attorney, accountant, web developer, etc.
2. An English teacher, or expert in the language being used.
3. A marketing expert. Someone who knows how to write with flair, engage the audience, properly use color and images to attract attention and influence your readers.
4. A SEO. The SEO would ensure your article focuses the proper keyword, uses the correct meta tags, the internal and external links are maximized, etc.
If your goal is to produce world-class content, then my recommendation would be to have someone review the content with all four of the above review areas in mind. The more people who can review your document, the more feedback you will get. You can certainly add #5 - your target audience to the list. They may think of questions or ideas which were not considered by the original author.
There are many companies which offer article creation services, and may offer proof reading services as well. There are also various tools which can review articles. One I like is: http://www.paperrater.com/

Separate service page for each key-word we're ranking in
Hello guys, I have a service-based website. Right now, I have around 30 commercial pages for different services, that we offer. I came up with idea to add service page for each keyword we're ranking in. For example, we offer home-construction service and we have 1 commercial page for this service. I will create 10-20 pages for keywords, related to home-construction services.

For example: bricklaying, Fundamental works, Landscape works, Concrete works, etc. I saw similar approach on this website. It's a link on bricklaying page: https://kiev.kabanchik.ua/ua/category/kladka-kirpicha If you scroll down you will see section with keywords, related to bricklaying and each keyword has separate page with duplicate content. My questions are: Do you know the name of this SEO tactic, so I can google more information about it? Do you think that it's good idea to use similar approach in order to improve your rankings for certain keywords? Is it a dangerous SEO tactic that may cause some penalties for your website or it's completely safe? Thank you for helping, guys! 331ea1ea-1d49-4f6c-89ef-510ef4657fa4-image.png c5999dbb-6dfb-4fbe-b3e8-ab9a0943bd88-image.png0 -

Outsource Content Writing Services - Who Is The Best?
Hello fellow Mozers! We are currently in the process of hiring an additional content developer but he doesn’t start for a couple weeks. We have some work that is piling up and I am considering outsourcing some content development until the new hire gets here. I have looked into Scripted, TextMaster, CrowdContent and a few others. I stay away from sites like UpWork and Fiverr because I abuse them in the past and I don’t get quality work. Is there any company that you have used in the past that you really trust and who are familiar with SEO? Thank you in advance for all of your recommendations

Can anyone recommend a good reliable blogging platform for a small to medium sized manufacturing and services company?
I've been asked by my manager to investigate the best blogging platform for our company website. On a recent CIM course it ways suggested that Wordpress is not necessarily reliable. Could anyone advise? The blog is required to provide a space for current industry news, casestudies etc. It is also envisaged that the blog will allow comments. I've only got good things to say about Wordpress, but have only used the platform for my own small SEO company.

SEO impact on archives and mirror services?
Hi, We're looking at setting up an email archive site for certain lists related to our niche. We've been considering using archives.ourdomain.com versus ourdomain.com/archives. Part of the problem is that while the archives won't initially have huge amounts of content, over time it'll outstrip the amount of content we produce and I was worried about whether or not this would cause a duplicate content penalty as the emails will also be archived elsewhere. If the volume of mails over time combined with duplication penalties are going to penalise the site, I'd rather we used a subdomain or a separate domain. If not, then subdomains might be the way to go.
