What Services Do You Offer?

Social Media Today offers a full array of website writing services including:

WEBSITE CONTENT: Whether we design your website or not we become intimately familiar with the message you are trying to relay to your visitors.

We take pride in writing in the vernacular of whichever audience you wish to address, and believe that a little demographic research goes a long, long, longgggg (just making the point there) way.

We feel a responsibility to provide valuable, accurate content so every article is researched and fact-checked and, if required, vetted through your team liaison, prior to publication.

BLOG POSTS: Writing for blogs is just down-right fun. Each blog is different and, as such, allows a great deal of creativity and clever use of words to engage the reader. This is the stuff we love to do!

The purpose of blogging is to engage and create a conversation. We completely get that and work hard to speak to your specific audience so they will listen, respond and share.

COPYWRITING: Writing interesting copy is tough. Again, we work with you to determine who your audience is, where they are online and how to speak to them.

How do we determine what’s great content?

We work with you to determine who you want to reach. We help you find out where they are and how they conduct themselves online.

For example: A snowboarding website is not going to want content written in the same tone as a fund management company. You tell us your target demographic (we can help define that if need be) and we’ll write the content with them in mind. That’s just how we roll.

What’s the process?

With all of our writing services we never cut and paste content from one article to the next. Each and every article is original and SEO optimized to garner the most amount of attention from search engine spiders while providing entertaining, engaging, informative and relevant information to the reader.

When you’re looking for creative, researched, accurate writing you’ll find that there are very few services available that can meet your individual needs at these prices.

OK, I’m sold…how much?

Sometimes the price will depend on the project. Some clients prefer a per/project rate and that can be determined once the scope of the project is nailed down.

However, for those who do want to know the hourly rate for writing so they can budget more effectively we’ve put this together.

Website content: $60/hour (includes 1 revision, additional revisions will be at the hourly rate)

Blog posts: $50/hour (includes 1 revision, additional revisions will be at the hourly rate)

Copywriting: $50/hour (includes 1 revision, additional revisions will be at the hourly rate)

Other (including newsletter writing, press release writing, article marketing pieces, ad copy): $50/hour

NB: While these are our standard writing rates, other arrangements can be made for weekly articles, blog posts or newsletters. Please email if you have any questions.
