Attention to detail is one of our core values! This is your chance to stand out :)

To love this role, here’s the type of person you are:

• You have a passion for digital marketing; it’s the thing you could talk about all day long and that your friends and family wish you STOP talking about.
• You're results-oriented and focused on the outcome of your writing, not just the words themselves.
• You’re a self-starter who is comfortable creating complete articles with minimal direction like the targeted keywords, and a blog title.
• While you don’t need to be an expert in these areas, it certainly helps if you have a general understanding of blogging, email marketing, lead generation, ecommerce, social media and search engine optimization. Bonus if you’re familiar with WordPress, Shopify, and the other Awesome Motive products like WPForms, MonsterInsights, AIOSEO, SeedProd, Smash Balloon, RafflePress, Push Engage, Easy Digital Downloads and many more.
• You’re an excellent communicator who makes sure nothing slips through the cracks.
• You have the ability to research and understand technical concepts, then explain them in simple terms to people who aren’t tech-savvy.
• You can accept requested edits with a professional attitude, understanding that even the best writers have room for improvement.

Common responsibilities include (but are not limited to):

• Ensuring your content is well-optimized for search engine rankings following our established guides.
• Research competitors and ensure any comparisons made in articles are accurate and properly position OptinMonster’s features and benefits above our competitors.
• Participating as a valuable contributor to our Growth team which is responsible for growing our website traffic, email list, and new sales.
• Updating pillar articles and existing content on a regular basis.
• Creating your own featured images and screenshots for each blog post.
• Acting as a peer editor for other colleagues, when needed.
• Writing guest posts, or creating snippets of content, related to OptinMonster or TrustPulse for other Awesome Motive-owned brands when needed.
• Help our team craft better internal processes and systems by documenting your work and utilizing our project management tools to keep work on track.
• Keeping your content’s status on our editorial calendar up-to-date at all times so the rest of your team can see what articles will be published, and when.
• Collaborate with customers to produce written case studies.
• Craft copy to articulate the benefits of new features on our website.
• Researching, writing, and self-editing 3-5 assigned blog posts/week that are engaging, actionable, error-free, and follow our style guide.

Requirements

• Copywriting: You can understand our audience and use their own language to position products as solutions to their pain points. Your writing is persuasive and gets conversions, not just traffic.
• Time Management: You can juggle multiple tasks and projects and prioritize your work effectively to meet all deadlines.
• Image Editing: You can efficiently take screenshots; resize and crop images; add text, borders, or other elements; compress images; and upload and format them in WordPress to make them clear, useful, and look good.
• Previous freelance or remote work experience.
• Basic HTML: You can use the text editor in WordPress to add attributes to links and to complete basic formatting of lists, subheadings, anchor links, etc. with HTML.
• Availability to participate in audio/video meetings between 9 am- 5 pm EST.
• SEO: You understand what SEO is and why it’s important. You know how to research keyword volume and search intent and how to effectively use keywords in your content without keyword stuffing. You have optimized high-ranking content in your portfolio.
• Writing and Editing: You can research and write a well-structured article with impeccable grammar and spelling in a conversational tone. You can edit and proofread your own work to eliminate careless errors instead of relying on an editor to fix them for you.
• Personal Computer with Internet Access.
• Google Analytics: You know how to analyze the results of your content in Google Analytics.
