Our flagship service is Content Growth, our best-in-class done-for-you SEO Content service. We produce ~80 pieces of content per month for clients. All our content aims to achieve a top ranking in Google.
Content Growth drives excellent results for our clients. This is powered by the combination of our robust process and our in-house technology. is our proprietary tech we’ve built to make so good. This is all designed and built in-house. FALCON AI was featured in the New York Times last year and is patent pending.
As our new Technical Content Writer, you’ll work on creating content for Content Growth clients. You’ll work across a range of clients, products, and industries to write world-class content. You will be joining as our first technical writer and will be responsible for any in-house content that requires working knowledge of technical topics. You will be our go-to person for writing and fact-checking how-to tutorials and developer-level content.
How you’ll work
You’ll work with our content team to create engaging content that supports our clients’ conversion goals. Most of our content is SEO-driven. We’ll provide you with SEO-focused outlines and need you to turn them into great technical blog content.
The majority of our content work is about WordPress, WooCommerce, and other SaaS topics, so you should have experience with this (developer level). Existing experience writing technical WordPress tutorials is a bonus.
As a 100% remote team, we carefully balance collaboration with an environment that enables everyone to do their best work. You’ll communicate with the team through Basecamp, our project management software, and Google Meet. We’re located in Europe and require 2 hours of overlap with GMT each day.
You’ll be a part of our content team, who will provide you with editorial support, training, and detailed content outlines. You’ll then have “deep work” time to create these articles, to deliver either to Google Docs or straight onto our clients’ WordPress. Published posts will be either bylined or ghostwritten on behalf of the client.
You’ll have opportunities to be involved across the content process, but your primary work will be writing technical outlines and articles, and you’ll need to be happy writing content at a high volume of five posts per week.
The content we produce is typically a mix of:
- WordPress and WooCommerce plugin tutorials (developer or non-developer level)
- Developer-level content on topics including SaaS, hosting, and coding languages
- Listicles such as top 10 WordPress plugin lists
- SEO-focused edits to existing content
