    I am a business ghost-writer and author content that never has my name on it. I am a skilled WordPress front end developer, content creator, SEO specialist, thorough researcher, and an ideas kind of person. You give me your draft, and I'll show you my vision of what you're trying to say. My articles include graphics, sources, SEO keywords, and grammar/spelling/readability checks by default. My background is course work, with a history in industrial psychology at Unisa, sales at The Sales Counsel, and NGO work in poverty, food insecurity and homelessness for various not-for-profit organisations and business units, most notable of which are the SA Reserve Bank SADC division, the European Union CWCI division, the Southern Africa Trust, and the Nicole Noordien Foundation, where I worked closely on funding proposals with Nicole Noordien de Klerk. More recently, I have focused on the kind of projects that bring me joy. If I've applied to one of your projects, you can be sure I will complete it with the same passion and joy I found it with. Born in the 1970s, I am a Gen X baby and have been working on computers for 30 years. System thinking comes naturally to me, and the user experience is one I identify closely with. I have been browsing, researching, writing, designing, and developing websites and their content for over a decade. I create SEO-rich content and page elements that are easy to read, easy to navigate, and easy to shop. I'm visually-driven, and enjoy using infographics, models, and charts that create interactive reading experiences. I use Canva to design, and am pretty good at it. I'm able to think on my feet, meet every deadline, and keep my word on delivery. My content is engaging, to the point and relevant. I take pride in my work and output. I am comfortable with ChatGPT, Articly.ai, Playground.ai, and Invideo. I adapt quite quickly to new software, apps, or themes. I am able to work in Elementor or other frame-based environments... almost as well as I do in Classic or Gutenberg-based themes. Whether RankMath or Yoast, Notion or Docs, Pexels or Jumpstory, Canva or Paint, Convertkit or a LinkedIn newsletter... I adjust to my environment and deliver.

    Fact: Your audience doesn’t make rational buying decisions. They’re driven by biases, heuristics, and psychological triggers—whether they realize it or not. The good news? I know how to leverage that. I combine behavioral science, conversion psychology, and SEO copywriting to write persuasive, search-optimized content that doesn’t just rank—it engages, convinces, and converts. What I Do: ✔ SEO-Optimized Website & Landing Page Copy → Designed for traffic & conversion (not just keywords). ✔ B2B & SaaS Blog Writing → Content that positions you as an industry leader & drives inbound leads. ✔ Sales Funnels & Email Sequences → Persuasive storytelling meets data-driven strategy. ✔ Conversion-Focused Content Strategy → I don’t just write—I engineer content for measurable business growth. The Science Behind My Copy: 1. Anchoring Effect → Pricing, comparisons & subtle cues that shape perception. 2. Loss Aversion → Framing your offer in a way that makes "not buying" feel riskier. 3. Cognitive Ease → Writing that’s simple yet powerful (because clarity = conversions). 4. Scarcity & Social Proof → Strategic trust signals that eliminate friction & boost conversions. Clients say my SEO writing is like a "Trojan Horse"—it sneaks past Google’s algorithms while persuading human readers to take action. If you’re looking for content that ranks, resonates, and sells—let’s talk.

    My name is Michael Celender. I’m a Johannesburg-based screenwriter, script editor and consultant, with solid experience also in copywriting and technical writing. Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa, but also lived in Los Angeles and Tel Aviv for a number of years. Originally studied advertising, then switched and got a degree in accounting. I taught, lectured and developed accounting courses, publishing my own series of accounting books and started my own educational website, which bloomed to over 100,000 visitors per month (I personally wrote all 500+ articles on the site). In terms of copywriting, I worked at a non-profit for years (fundraising and book sales) and have written for a variety of corporates. I've composed product descriptions for an e-commerce brand (selling on platforms like Amazon and eBay), I've written corporate video scripts, developed social media marketing videos for start-ups and entrepreneurial brands, wrote sales funnel pages, consulted on a corporate video shoot, and more. In terms of screenwriting my main claim to fame is a full adaptation deal I did with the author of "He Died Alone in Tijuana" (adapting this book/memoir into a full feature). This screenplay, "Crossing Borders," placed as a semi-finalist in the 2019 WeScreenplay international screenwriting contest and received a top rating from a NATAS Emmy-winning screenwriter - rated in the top 5% of scripts reviewed, with comments like: "I found this to be an incredibly unique, compelling story... There was some fantastic visual storytelling throughout the script." The story has been under consideration by the likes of Shaia Labouef and Kit Harrington (Game of Thrones). My South African dramedy feature, "Affirmative Action," was a 2016 beneficiary of the National Film and Video Foundation's development grant and placed as a semi-finalist in the 2019 Muse Awards. I’ve also helped a top Israeli producer promote his slate of projects, I’ve consulted with a sports/music celebrity on adapting his children’s series, and My debut short film, a near-future sci-fi romance, is slated for release in the first half of 2025.
