I'm an Australian copywriter and content editor with more than 15 years of professional writing experience, specialising in SEO content, website copy, blogs and digital marketing. Since 2019, I've worked as a freelance copywriter and editor for an Australian marketing agency, creating high-quality content across a wide range of industries. My work includes long-form SEO landing pages (1500+ words), website copy, blog articles (600+ words), social media content and marketing campaigns, as well as editing and proofreading content produced by other writers to ensure it meets brand guidelines, SEO best practices and high editorial standards. Clients value my attention to detail, reliability and ability to quickly understand their brand voice. I take pride in delivering polished, publication-ready work on time, every time. Before moving into digital marketing, I spent seven years writing editorial content for Australian magazines, where I developed a strong ability to research complex topics, write engaging copy and consistently meet tight deadlines. Since becoming a full-time freelancer in 2014, I've worked with clients across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, Canada and the United States. My projects have included: • SEO landing pages • Website copy • Blog articles • News and editorial content • Social media content • Email marketing • Proofreading and content editing • Children's books • Real estate marketing copy I'm comfortable writing for a broad range of industries, including finance, real estate, construction, healthcare, home improvement and professional services. Whether I'm creating content from scratch or refining existing copy, my focus is always on producing clear, engaging, well-researched content that delivers results. I have experience in using AI tools to support research and the creation of content outlines, while ensuring all final content is professionally edited, fact-checked and written in a natural, human voice.

The time has come. You need a hand with writing content people will actually enjoy reading and AI platforms want to feast on. Maybe you just want another set of eyes on your work to check it reads well and achieves your business goals. Perhaps you’ve got a bunch of video clips and want someone to make something that will stop thumbs in their tracks. You’ve hired content writers, content editors or video editors in the past, but all you’ve gotten in return is slow responses, missed deadlines and arguments over “creative differences”. That’s not how I roll. I’m Paul Frew, and I’ve been a content writer, content editor and video editor for over 15 years for clients across Australia, the UK, the US, Canada and Europe. I know exactly what it's like to manage people when I was a contact centre manager for 13 years, so I know what makes a freelancer a pleasure to work with (and what makes them a nightmare). What does that mean? For starters, you’ll never have to chase me for updates. I keep you in the loop at every stage of the project, with clear timelines on when you can expect drafts to hit your inbox. It doesn’t matter what timezone you’re in. I also adapt to your workflow. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with dozens of apps and platforms. If there is a system you’re comfortable with and specific processes you have in place, then I learn them inside out. You don’t have to walk on eggshells around me. I thrive on feedback and handle revisions without fuss. You can give me a detailed brief or creative freedom, and either way I’ll deliver. Here’s a small taste of what I’ve delivered for clients over my career: * Thousands of articles across cybersecurity, e-commerce and gaming for clients including SafeHome, Skimlinks, Interparcel and Valnet. * Hundreds of videos produced, including wedding films, video game trailers, testimonials and corporate event highlights for videographers, agencies and organisations worldwide. * Contributed to content strategies for unranked pages at SafeHome that now sit on page one and feature in AI overviews. * Produced social media videos for Habitat for Humanity that generated three times the views and engagement of their previous in-house content. * Conducted content audits, editorial strategies and writer coaching programs for clients including Centerfield and Habitat for Humanity. Whether you need a 10,000-word lead magnet guide, a video game teaser that drives wishlists or help improving your content team’s capability, I can help. Send me a message and I’ll get back to you the same day.
