Everything Done For You, Well and Often

Working with CopySmiths is a relatively hands-off process.

We manage every aspect of content production from keyword research to article title writing, editing, custom graphics, internal linking, quality checking, publishing and right through to tracking organic keyword results.

eCommerce Content Specialists

Our founder, Katrina McKinnon, owned a successful eCommerce store for 10+ years, has built stores on Bigcommerce, Shopify, Woocommerce, X-Cart and other platforms for 15+ years. 

Every store relied on organic search traffic for revenue and sales.

We know eCommerce. And, we know eCommerce content in particular.

Poets, Authors & True Creatives

We believe in the power of creative story-telling and enhancing the reader’s experience through interesting visual elements.

Sure, AI-spun content is getting better and developing at a rapid rate, but Google is actively hunting it down.

Your customers deserve to be delighted and surprised by your brand so every piece of content by CopySmiths is hand-written, hand-edited, hand-checked and hand-published.

Thorough Internal Processes & Training

CopySmiths has training for that! And a process too!

Over the course of 10 years we have developed an extensive SEO Copywriting Training programme that is only available to our in-house writing team.

We do our best to automate processes yet take a human-centric approach to everything else from education, coaching, and valuing our community.

Transparent, Genuine & Committed

Our approach to customer service and your satisfaction with our work is to be

  • transparent with timelines (even when we’re running late),
  • genuine in our interactions (even when we have bad news) and
  • committed to the quality of our work (even when we are still learning from our mistakes).

We are open to casual conversations and difficult feedback.

Creative SEO Content

Our content work is founded on old-school SEO principles as laid out in Google Search Central and Google Quality Rater Guidelines documentation.

But, we add a dash of creativity, unexpected ideas, delightful visuals and try to create an engaging reading experience for your customers.

Because we are creative with our approach, but rooted in SEO principles, our work — time and time again — leads to long term ranking.
