My Travel Writing
You would have noticed that I don’t take myself too seriously – and that my Travel Writing leans towards the quirky side. I do a bit of Freelance Travel Writing here and there as well.
I’m available to undertake Travel Writing/Blogging trips to anywhere you want to send me! As some examples – I’ve already worked with others such as Air Asia and Tourism Fiji.
I also have Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) Skills – which provides long term internet traffic. I undertake keyword research for every post, which maximises the change of ranking high in the search engines for targeted keywords. This provides long term traffic for myself and anyone else I partner with. The previous trips I have undertaken are still attracting internet traffic, long after they were finished!
I also use Social Media extensively, such as Twitter and Stumbleupon.
So if you’re interested, please Contact Me.
