Good content strategy isn't creative guesswork; it's data and strategy. I'm an SEO Content Strategist specialising in finance, health, and professional services, with over 300k words optimised across B2B and B2C brands. Everything I do is rooted in how your audience thinks, searches, and makes decisions, not what sounds good in a brief. Most content fails not because it's poorly written, but because it's built without understanding search intent, buyer psychology, or the gap between what a brand says and what its audience needs to hear. What I bring to your project: โ€” SEO content strategy built around keyword research, competitor analysis, and content gap identification โ€” Content audits that identify what's working, what's cannibalising rankings, and what needs to be cut, optimised, or rebuilt โ€” Editorial strategy and content systems designed to scale long-term and build trust with your target audience โ€” Messaging alignment across blogs, landing pages, and multi-channel campaigns, anchored in what behavioural data tells us about your audience's decision-making process Let me know what you're missing. Let's grow.
