I'd recommend looking for someone who understands SEO beyond just using keywords. A writer who knows search intent and internal linking will usually deliver much better results.
YEAS, I completely agree. We're looking for writers who understand search intent and can write content that's useful for readers, not just search engines.
Do you work with AI-assisted writing, or are you looking for completely human-written content? That would be useful to know.
We're open to AI-assisted writing as long as the final article is properly edited, fact-checked, and reads naturally. Quality is what matters most to us.
I'd also ask for a few published samples before hiring anyone. It's one of the easiest ways to judge writing quality.
Definitely. Published samples tell us much more than a resume. We'll be asking applicants to share a few examples of their work.
Link placement is just as important as the writing itself. A good writer should know how to add links naturally without making them look forced.
We prefer links to fit naturally within the content. Forced link placement usually affects both readability and user experience.
Sounds like a good opportunity. It would help if you mentioned whether you're paying per word, per article, or on a monthly basis.
Thanks for mentioning that. We'll include more details about the payment structure when we start reaching out to interested writers.
Make sure you hire someone who understands topical authority instead of just writing random blog posts around keywords.
That's exactly the kind of approach we're looking for.
Do you need someone who can publish directly on WordPress, or will your team handle formatting and publishing?
For most projects, our team handles the publishing. However, WordPress experience would definitely be a bonus.
I'd recommend doing a paid trial article before committing to a long-term partnership. It usually saves everyone time.
I like that suggestion.
If the work is ongoing, you'll probably attract better writers by mentioning that it's a long-term opportunity.
Yes, this is intended to be an ongoing opportunity.
Are you looking for writers from a specific country, or is this open to anyone with good English writing skills?
It's open to anyone. As long as the writing quality is strong and communication is good, we're happy to work with writers from different countries.
One thing I've learned is that communication matters just as much as writing quality. Reliable writers are hard to find, so choose carefully.
I couldn't agree more. Good communication makes every project run much more smoothly, and it's something we value just as highly as writing ability.
If backlinks are part of the job, it would be good to explain whether you're expecting outreach or simply natural internal and external link placement.
Thanks for bringing that up. We're mainly referring to natural
internal and relevant external link placement within the articles. Outreach isn't part of this role, but understanding proper linking practices is definitely important.
