This is a marketing tactic that can be very powerful in driving targeted traffic. When people are searching for information on a specific topic, search engines will often display results from article databases. I ghostwrite articles on topics that are relevant to your business and distribute them to the major article database sites. At the bottom of each article are your by-line and a link back to your website.

All of the articles I write are both professional and informative. It's best to keep articles to a maximum of 450 words in order to hold reader attention and keep them interested long enough to follow the link back to your site.

Blogging was first established as a way for individuals to communicate their personal thoughts and ideas with the world. Although many people continue to write a blog as a personal journal, it has also become one of the most effective ways for businesses of all sizes to drive traffic to their websites and increase their profits.

The key to operating a successful blog is to keep it updated on a consistent basis, but understandably, not all business owners have time to do this. I offer well researched, interesting and timely blog posts to businesses of all types. I have written posts on everything from real estate to eyelash extensions.

My blog posts include links to other relevant material on your website and complimentary sites as well as images from stock photography or personally taken if applicable. Most posts range from 350-500 words, but if you'd like something longer that is certainly available too.

A lot of what I do is ghostwriting because that is often the best way to market your business online. This means that I take absolutely no credit for what I write for you and you own the copywrite in whole. Due to the nature of ghostwriting, it is difficult to provide a complete and up-to-date portfolio for copywrite reasons. If you don't find what you're looking for on my portfolio page please feel free to contact me for a more specific sample.

If you're looking for magazine, e-zine or journalistic writing services, or anything that is not for the purpose of marketing your own business, these will not be ghostwritten.

With a diploma in journalism from Humber College and a degree in Media Studies from the University of Guelph, I have been trained in print, radio and broadcast writing. I have extensive experience in writing hard news articles, feature stories and conducting interesting and professional interviews. I've worked for a national magazine as an Editorial Assistant and have had several articles published.

I also write well researched, attention-grabbing news releases and backgrounders.

This is quite possibly the most effective way to make your business known by thousands of people all at once. On sites like Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, LinkedIn and Squidoo I can create business pages and accounts to attract a following to your business and/or blog. By using company images and providing interesting and relevant information I can make your business visible to several major online communities.

The key, like with blogging, is to always be updating. For this reason I also offer management services so you never have to worry about getting behind.

Having a well written website is extremely important when it comes to hanging on to potential clients. Whether you want to start fresh or just have your current material edited to sound more professional and positive, I am the writer for you. Your website will not only read well, but I will also factor in your business' keywords and phrases to reflect what your business is all about and to help you get ranked higher by search engines and drive more traffic. Effectively using keywords throughout your website is the best way to move yourself up to the number one spot in a Google search.
