Content Writer Micky’s Blog

Archive for November, 2008

Last week I wrote an SEO article for a client called Busycode, who are Flex developers based in China.

The article is titled “What Is Flex, Why Use Flex & How to Find a Good Flex Developer?” and is currently only published on Busycode’s own website (click on the link or image to go to the article).

Most people have heard of Flex software but don’t know or understand what Flex is, how it works or why you would want to use Flex on your website or for your business. Or if they know more about Adobe Flex software and want to use Flex, they don’t have the skills to build the Flex application.

The article explains in easy to understand language what Flex is and what you would typically use it for (to present data-rich information in a visually appealing and really interactive way).

The article concludes it’s easy to outsource development of Flex applications to Busycode because they are absolute specialists in Flex and don’t require a deposit to get started, so it’s completely risk-free to start a project with them.

Next week I’ll submit the article to a couple of article directories to increase the article’s exposure, get more incoming links for Busycode and hopefully get them more business – creating quality Flex applications at a low price for their clients.

Prints R Us is a Melbourne-based online photo canvas printing business. A few weeks ago I spent a couple of days rewriting almost all content for their website, and their revamped website (it also has a new look) has just been launched.

Their web pages now have loads of useful information, incorporate all their important SEO keywords, especially on their individual product pages, and should entice visitors to submit their images online for a free evaluation or order a photo canvas or one of their other photo printing products.

Besides the wellknown photo canvas (I like the ones with ‘gallery wrap’, i.e. the photo is stretched around the edges), they can also print and affix your high-res photo or poster on a thin wooden board for a professionally mounted print (block mounting) or for a ligher, perhaps temporary solution, mount it on a foam board (foam mounting). They also do normal, but very professional photo printing, but the product that really stood out for me is what they call ‘framed canvas blocs’.

It’s difficult to explain what framed canvas blocs are (they’re a new ‘invention’), you’ll have to check it out on the Prints R Us website, but basically it’s a canvas print of your photo that’s fixed inside a thick wooden block frame that you can simply place anywhere. It’s unlike any photo frame you’ve ever seen. Because they’re new, unique, very stylish and not expensive, they make excellent gifts – that’s how Prints R Us market them and I agree.

For all these products you simply upload your own images online and they will check whether they’re suitable for the product you’re ordering. You’ll get your image home-delivered within a week.

Now that they’ve got their excellent website content, they’re ready for the world (well… Australia mostly) to come and visit their website and check out their products – which make fabulous Christmas gifts!

OK – Just thought I’d share a typical SEO web copywriting (rewriting) job with the readers of my blog.

It’s been a while since I had a chance to work on my own website or blog, but I’ve finally taken an hour and a half this afternoon (it’s a Sunday) to read up on theme modifications and change the heading of my blog.

I’ve only really changed the background image of the top banner so far, but I plan to make some more changes soon, now that I know how it all works.

When I’ve got it looking close to how I want it to look, I’ll put a link in the top nav bar on my Content Writer website to go straight to this blog. And I’ll write a post a bit more often…!
