Many businesses lose potential clients simply because their website does not clearly explain what they offer.
Visitors arrive, read a few lines, feel confused and leave.
This is where I help.
I am a trained copywriter specializing in clear, structured website text that helps people quickly understand what a business offers and why it matters to them.
My work focuses on one simple goal: when someone reads your website, the message should immediately make sense.
In addition to copywriting, I also work as a German–English translator and proofreader.
I have extensive experience translating and proofreading books across different genres, including romance novels, historical fiction, crime novels, as well as scientific and medical texts. This work requires not only language accuracy but also the ability to preserve tone, style, and readability.
Because of this background, I pay close attention to clarity, flow, and natural language, whether I am working on marketing texts, websites, or long-form content.
Typical projects I work on
• rewriting website homepages so visitors immediately understand the offer
• improving landing pages and service pages
• editing and restructuring existing website text
• translating books and marketing content (English - German)
• proofreading and improving readability
Website Messaging Review
I also offer short website messaging reviews.
If visitors do not immediately understand what you offer, they usually leave within seconds.
During a review I identify where the message is unclear and suggest concrete improvements to make the offer easier to understand.
Many clients already have good content, it simply needs clearer structure and stronger wording.
If you are looking for someone who focuses on clarity, strong messaging, and natural language, feel free to contact me.
You are also welcome to send a short section of your text or website. I can quickly show you how it could be improved.

Do as nearly 100 Upwork clients did... Hire me!
Because of my professional experience of nearly 40 years as a multilingual office assistant, I am well acquainted with technical and scientific terminology concerning building, architecture, renovation, environment, infrastructure, fire safety, petrochemicals, etc.
However, I can take care of texts on almost any subject and have a knack for translating commercial texts. Whether you need a software manual, material safety data sheets, a compelling product catalog, or a culinary website with mouthwatering descriptions, I will produce it.
My computer is my ally to increase my efficiency. I'm proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Mailchimp, SDL Trados, Wordbee, DeepL, and many more. I developed my personal website in WordPress. Always eager to learn new software to improve myself.

Final notes:
1. I am not a certified translator. If you have a highly sensitive assignment, then please, before publishing my translation work, submit it to a proofreader with the necessary expertise.
2. Since I have a day job, I freelance in my spare time. So, during Belgian work hours (CET), I may not always respond within seconds, but you do have my attention, and I genuinely want to work with you.
3. My rate for different translations varies, but no matter the subject of your project, the minimum rate is always $0.08 and not negotiable.
