Your Outsourced Content Marketing Team
The Blogsmith was initially founded by Maddy Osman in 2016 as a freelance business.
Today, The Blogsmith operates as an SEO content agency made up of multiple writers and editors, who all follow a tried-and-true process for creating relevant, rankable content.
How it Works
SEO Content Writing
What’s it like to work with the team at The Blogsmith?
Here’s what you need to know, in three steps:
Place an Order
When you’re ready to start, you’ll place an order for new content and we’ll collaborate until we land on a great topic based on your audience and goals — backed by keyword research data.
Receive Progress Updates
We’ll assign the best-fit writer to the task, as well as an expected delivery date. We always aim to under-promise and overdeliver.
Relax — We've Got This
We’ll take care of everything necessary to take your article from concept to published work (including an upload to your CMS) while you focus on other mission-critical business activities.
Three different people will review an article draft before you see it.
When you work with the team at The Blogsmith, you can breathe a sigh of relief — your SEO content strategy is completely HANDLED, from start to finish.
Make an Impact with Content
Why should your company bother with SEO content? The reasons are endless:
- To help users understand how to best use your product or service
- To answer relevant questions that users are searching for
- To demonstrate expertise and your connection to the industry you serve
Here are some of the most common questions people ask before working with us:
For articles up to 1000 words, turnaround time is 7 business days from the date it’s commissioned. If you need quicker turnaround, inquire about packages and pricing.
We love working with agencies!
We offer ghostwriting rates/white-labeling if you want our help behind the scenes but we’re also happy to work directly with clients if that makes things easier on your team.
After spending many years working at various marketing agency jobs, Maddy understands how to manage client relationships with panache and professionalism and has built out The Blogsmith team and our processes accordingly.
We can assist with a CMS upload for an additional charge. We’ll even make sure we get to green on Yoast!
