I am an Australian travel writer and photographer with firsthand experience in more than 100 countries across all seven continents. Over the past 12 years, my work has been published in Australian newspapers, international travel magazines and a variety of online travel platforms, while my photography has been commissioned by NGOs and featured in a UN Women campaign.
I am committed to producing original, high-quality work that delivers genuine value to clients. My goal is always to create content that not only aligns with a client’s vision and objectives, but also exceeds expectations. I am highly responsive to feedback, adaptable to client requirements and take pride in building strong long-term professional relationships founded on reliability, communication and consistently delivering quality results.
I am particularly passionate about projects within the sustainable and regenerative tourism sectors, which I believe represent the future of travel. My work in this space is informed by a Bachelor’s Degree with Honours in Natural Environment and Wilderness Studies, extensive firsthand travel experience and collaborations with nature-based adventure tourism companies.
My niche specialties include surf and dive tourism, eco-conscious escapes and travel in Morocco, a country where I lived for several years and developed an in-depth understanding of its culture, landscapes and travel experiences.

**I am not an AI copywriter, the words you'll receive are all me!**
I'm a freelance writer currently indefinitely travelling – Upwork is a means to keep that going! I pride myself on creating fun and engaging content, and feel as though I have a particular talent for distilling large and complex ideas into something more easily digestible.
After creating a travel blog in 2015, I realised that there was a market for a writer who could produce content that was at once professional and tongue-in-cheek. I’ve gone on to make it a full-time career, writing for a wide variety of organisations and industries, including the likes of Qantas, Airtasker, Sportsbet and Square.
If you're looking for an interesting and unique writing style to set your content apart from a lot of the AI-generated beigeness that's out there, drop me a line!

Need an experienced content writer? 👋
🙋♂️ Hi, I'm Spencer, and I am based on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland.
✍️ Currently, I am a freelance content writer for several digital marketing and SEO agencies in Australia, the UK, the USA, and Bangkok.
🏆 One of the Australian agencies is Prosperity Media, run by James Norquay. They won 'Best Large SEO Agency 2025" at the SEMrush Search Awards for APAC.
🏆 They also won "Best Use of Search Travel (SEO): Large" at the Global Search Awards 2025 for their work with Go Rentals NZ - an account I produced content for.
🌏 Another is Earned Media, which was founded by Nick Brogden, one of the leading figures in the Australian SEO industry.
🌏 I also freelance for Paperstack. Run by Sean Clancy, they were a 2024 finalist at the Global Search Awards.
🧳 For all these agencies, I have written 5000+ high-quality, optimised blog posts and service pages for 200+ websites across many different niches. They include, but are not limited to:
🌏 Travel/Tourism
⚽️ Sport
🏠 Real Estate
🏥 Health
🧓 Retirement
👷♂️ Home Renovations
💲 Finance
🪙 Cryptocurrency
👩💼 Business
🛍 Retail
🖥 Technology
👚 Women's Fashion
🏗 Building/Construction
👬 Lifestyle
Typically, my work for these agencies has been in a ghostwriting capacity. However, I have written for major B2B & B2C brands like Go Rentals NZ, DiJones, Westpac, Charles Sturt University, Bitcoin.com.au, Healthy Minds NQ, Enterprise Car Rentals, Recordpoint, Macros, Pinot & Picasso, Provincial Homes, and SmartPay.
For some of these brands, I produce SEO and AEO optimised blog content that:
👉 Satisfies user intent
👉 Gains high-quality backlinks
👉 Improves their clients' SERP rankings
👉 Increases their chances of featuring in the AI overview.
For others, I write website pages that rank well and marketing materials that succinctly convey the client's core messages. This work involves me performing keyword research to match user intent and implementing other on-page SEO strategies.
In addition to my work for these agencies, I have a very strong background in travel and tourism. I have written as a ghostwriter for:
✍️ Get Your Guide
✍️ Side Walk Food Tours
✍️ Guide Consultants
✍️ TruTrip.co
I have also had several travel-related blog posts published under my name for:
✍️ Touropia.com
✍️ Travel2Next.com
✍️ Farawayworlds.com
✍️ Bestlocationhotels.com
In my spare time, I run beach-scenes.com. A WordPress travel-related blog that highlights my passion for promoting Queensland as a tourist destination.
If you are a digital marketing or SEO agency that needs a reliable, experienced, and well-rounded content writer on your team, please reach out to me today.
