Hire the Best Writers in Kansas City, MO

I have worked as a ghostwriter in many forms. I have primarily worked as a blogger under someone else's name; I have been a fiction writer and I've done many research projects. I also assist with writing resumes, transcription and data entry, brainstorming story plots for books, and I do enjoy beta reading, too, if you need feedback on your work. I enjoy proofreading as well. I have written many product reviews. I also have a background in recruiting and interviewing, so this is something I am happy to assist with as well. I can help with HR-related tasks or office management. I am also open to doing things I have never done before.

Hey there, I'm Marissa. I write SEO content that actually gets found, whether people are Googling or asking their favorite AI tool (ChatGPT, Claude, etc). I've been doing this for 7+ years across e-commerce, real estate, travel, wellness, personal finance, and more, and I have the stats to prove it. One client's site went from 11.6K to 70.8K+ impressions in a year with a solid SEO plan. SEO strategies are built to help you rank on Google AND show up in AI overviews. We'll be a great team if you want someone who: 🌟 Treats your content like it matters (because it does) 🌟 Knows SEO inside out, including AEO, GEO, and what Google is actually rewarding right now 🌟 Shows up, communicates, and delivers on time, every time 🌟 Is a real human who genuinely enjoys this work (rare, I know) I've helped brands increase organic traffic anywhere from 50% to over 300%. I'm your go-to for blog articles, website copy, product descriptions, sales pages- basically anything that needs to rank AND convert. Tools in my kit: SEMrush, Keysearch, Qwoted, Google Search Console, Google Analytics, WordPress, and Canva. Oh, and I'm weirdly good at beauty and wellness listicles. I keep my client roster small on purpose, which means your content gets all the time and attention it needs. If that sounds like what you've been looking for, let's talk.

As a business owner, you probably know how much a well-executed SEO strategy can do for driving website traffic - getting your content seen by people who are genuinely interested in what you do, thanks to articles that are spot on for what people are searching for. However, if you're still figuring out the ins and outs of keyword research, pillar topics and clusters, or just don't have the time to get into the nitty-gritty, I'm here to lend a hand. I'm a versatile blogger who's written for all sorts of niches, with a focus on doing the research and cranking out high quality, SEO savvy content that draws in the right crowd , boosts your search rankings, gives you credibility and gets your brand noticed by the people you really want to talk to. I can handle everything from evergreen content that will keep on giving, in-depth guides that really dive deep, and timely posts that stay on top of things, right on through to the full strategy - keyword research, topic clustering, on-page SEO, the whole nine yards. Doing this right can really make a big difference in how visible your business is, and can even help with reputation management by pushing down any negative feedback in search engine results with a healthy dose of positive branding.

Just to be upfront, I don't take on projects in places I'd rather not go - Casino/Gambling, Music/Musical Instruments, Cryptocurrency/Blockchain, Adult, or anything else that's just not worth my while.
