Copy Writer Needed, asap!!!!!!

[pauldowd101]

Hi,

Im looking for a copywriter to write some great copy for a Web Solutions Provider site.

Im looking for text for the following sections:

Web Design (2000 words)
Web Development (2000 words)
Graphic Design(2000 words)
SEO (2000 words).

As yet I have no notes for this so would prefer to go over what is needed on the telephone, then you will have the freedom to come up with the ideas.

I already have the text for the homepage, this kind of demonstrates the type of informal style I wish to go for. Untitled Document

Please contact me aspa if you are interested.

Hi Paul

I do like your new site, it's very smart. Just trying to sort out mine at the mo.

How much are you charging for someone to do your copywriting?

Also, if you need a hand with graphic design work too, let me know.

Look forward to hearing from you soon.

Hi Julie

Most copywriters either change an hourly rate or per project. I work with both.

Before I could price an individual project up, I'd need to:
1. have a look at the site
2. understand the tone of voice required
3. know if I'm writing from scratch or rewriting
4. know how much research is involved.

If all the research has been done and you've had a first go at writing the site, it might be that you need it proofreading and tidying up. If so, I'd allow about 20 minutes per standard page.

If you require a rewrite or having something written from scratch, you should allow at least an hour for the home page and at least half an hour per page for your other pages. (It could be longer, depending on the state of the copy!) If writing from scratch, allow at least an hour for research.

(How long researching takes depends on what is required. It could include reading information you have provided or researching similar businesses on the web.)

Asking how much a job will be is a bit like asking how long a piece of string is! If, for example, your site had six pages. For a proof and tidy up, you'd be looking at paying for 2 hours work. For a rewrite with research that would be 4.5 hours work.

Whether you use my services or not, please don't use someone who charges by the word! Sometimes using two words instead of 20 is the difficult bit!

I completely agree, finding the right words is the difficulty!
