Partner at Metropolis Web Development, a Tampa area web design and Internet marketing firm. I create search engine optimized written website content and develop optimized website architecture and page flow for small businesses and start-ups.

Content I create is used in website development and redevelopment, and content marketing, which means I create a great deal of written content. My expertise extends to virtually every content type, including static website content, blog articles, press releases and research material.

Subject Matter Expertise
In addition to professional writing, I write and publish six blogs and two wikis on a range of subjects. Although proficient in many subjects, I am considered an authority on politics, government, real estate, construction, green building, sustainable development, new urbanism, mortgage lending, web design, Internet marketing, SEO, public/private partnerships, transit oriented development, small business and WordPress.

Additional Qualifications
I was a certified Google Author with strong authority until Google discontinued authorship. Also, until recently suspended, my political writings were syndicated by Technorati.

Work Terms

Scheduling and Delivery
Client scheduling requirements are always met. Contact me if you have critical deadlines, they are almost always achievable even when same day delivery is required.

Pricing
Standard blog article | 300-500 words | .25/word | $75 minimum
Premium blog article | 500-900 words | .225/word | $125 minimum
Static website content | 300-900 words | .30/word | $100 minimum
In-Depth article | 1200-2000 words | .35/word | $500 minimum (includes research, sourcing and Schema markup)

Compensation Rates
Content I write is accurate, factual and supported by research. It is well conceived, well written and fits seamlessly into the context of your website or blog. Content is inherently optimized to outperform in organic search results, with no keyword stuffing and no known violations of webmaster guidelines.

Prices are markedly higher than bargain basement freelancers who charge as little as $.05 per word. I spend far more than that on research time alone. Business owners can't be distracted by cheap pricing alone. Knowing the cost of everything, and the value of nothing is a dangerous formula. Intelligent business owners understand overall value, and I provide one of the best overall value propositions in the world. In addition to strong written content, with each article, clients receive:
1 the focus keyword,
2 a list of keyword synonyms,
3 optimized meta title and meta description,
4 Dublin Core abstract,
5 optimized headers,
6 optimized link anchor text,
7 optimized image alt text, and
8 mapped, logical links

I've written articles that ranked on the first page of Google search results an hour after they were published. I also once wrote an article that was syndicated and re-posted on more than 36,400 websites 12 hours after it was published. While these are not a promise of performance, I don't think results like that are achievable using the cheapest articles money can buy.
