Hire the Best News Writers

SEO content strategist (6+ years) helping brands rank in Google AND get cited in AI search like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. 📊 Recent results: * A SaaS comparison article I optimized for btinsights.ai hit top 2 for its primary keyword and is now surfaced in Google AI Overviews * Took a local concrete contractor in Tucson from 0 to roughly 5,000 monthly organic clicks within 3 months (around 20,000 cumulative) * Helped a Philippine gaming top-up platform, recover from major indexing and ranking losses through technical SEO cleanup, schema fixes, and AEO content restructuring Most SEO writers still optimize for traditional Google ranking only. I structure content so it does both jobs: ranks today, and stays visible as search keeps shifting toward AI. That dual-layer approach is what separates content that performs this quarter from content that quietly disappears next year. 🎯 What I do: * Long-form SEO content and content strategy * AEO/GEO structuring for AI search visibility (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity) * On-page SEO: titles, meta descriptions, headings, schema, internal linking * Keyword research and search intent mapping * Service pages, location pages, comparison articles, pillar pages, listicles * Content refreshes and AI-draft humanization * Technical SEO: indexing fixes, crawl issues, site structure cleanup * WordPress and Elementor: page builds, on-page optimization, plugin work 💼 Industries: SaaS, B2B, tech, e-commerce, and local service businesses (construction, remodeling, contractors, home services). 🛠️ Stack: Ahrefs, Semrush, SurferSEO, NeuronWriter, RankMath, Yoast, Google Search Console, GA4, WordPress, Elementor. AI: Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity. 🤖 How I work: AI-assisted, never AI-dependent. AI handles the heavy lifting on research, outlines, and first drafts. Then I go through manually for accuracy, logic, structure, tone, and search performance. Nothing reads like generic AI output, and nothing ships unless it's actually useful to a real reader. 🤝 What I bring as a working partner: I move fast inside clear systems, deliver drafts that don't need rewriting, and care about real results (rankings, clicks, citations, leads) over vanity output. I work well with founders and agency owners who have a process and need a reliable executor. 📩 If you want content built for both Google and AI search, send me a quick note about your project and we'll scope it.

Hi, I'm James (a.k.a. Jim), a father, a full-time freelancer living between the UK and Thailand, looking after my mum in the UK and getting my son through an international school (GCSE) in Thailand.

I've been doing this for many years, and I work with other experts with whom I have built business relationships over the years as an online freelance consultant.
