Did you know that, on average, only 2 out of 10 people read beyond your headline?

SEO Copywriting

keeps them scrolling,

all the way down to ‘buy now.’

SEO copywriting has 2 jobs.

One. Make sure more people find you online.

Two. Convince every single one of them that your product, service or solution is exactly what they've been searching for all their lives.

Let me see if I’ve got this right.

You’ve invested mega time/money/tears/sleepless nights creating something you know people are gonna seriously love.

You know your demographic, you’ve got a foolproof marketing strategy in place, and you’ve built a kick-ass landing page. 

Then, zero. zilch. zip. nada.

Nobody’s seeing your achingly perfect brain-child.

No one’s trigger-happy index finger’s poised over the ‘Hell Yes! Buy Now’ button.

 

there's no fault in your star product strategy.

You just haven't optimised your web copy till it's super juicy & ready to convert.

I know a freelance SEO copywriter who can help you with that 😉

The last thing you want to hear when you launch a new product is crickets.

The truth is, there could be any number of reasons you're not getting the response you want from your website.

  • Your copy could be great but be so focused on waxing lyrical about your awesome brand that you’ve forgotten the cardinal rule of words that sell: WIIFM (what’s in it for me?).

Great conversion copy is like being the coolest chick at a swanky cocktail party, and I don’t mean the one who looks killer but only has one topic of conversation: herself. I don’t know about you, but I want to be sipping a mojito next to the gal who’s telling fun stories, listening carefully to what I have to say, asking the right questions, and speaking on my wavelength.

  • Maybe you forgot to create a clear roadmap to your click button. If you don’t tell readers what to do (and why it will make their life soooo much better), chances are they’ll just skim off the page and onto your competitor’s

Great conversion copy makes sure every line of your website compels the reader to learn more and take the next step. That’s it’s only purpose – get someone to take action. What are you asking your web visitors to do?

  • Perhaps your keywords aren’t matching your audience’s expectations, or you haven’t put them in the right order for maximum effect. Or you forgot that you should be writing for humans first, Google second.

SEO isn’t rocket science, but there are rules to follow (and sometimes Google changes them unexpectedly). A good SEO copywriter can guide you to putting the right elements in the right spot to make sure you’re not undermining your chances of ranking higher.

LET'S JUST IMAGinE FOR A SECOND if...

Here's the lowdown

SEO + conversion copywriting
gives you
all of the above & more.

What is SEO Copywriting?

Understanding the basics

SEO copywriting is the art and science of creating content that captivates your audience and ranks high on search engine results pages (SERPs). Imagine having a professional SEO copywriter who knows just the right words to use, the perfect keywords to sprinkle in, and the best SEO practices to follow. This magical blend ensures your content is both engaging and optimised to drive organic traffic to your website.

At its core, SEO copywriting involves a mix of keyword research, on-page optimisation, and content marketing. The goal? To make your content irresistible to both your readers and search engines. By doing so, you increase your website’s visibility, attract more visitors, and ultimately, boost your conversions and sales. It’s like having a secret weapon that makes your content stand out in the crowded digital landscape.

Freelance copywriters offer the kind of specialised, flexible approach that ensures high-quality content fits like a glove. It’s a bit like swapping out different lures depending on the fish you’re after—one size rarely fits all. In fact, HubSpotresearch shows that targeted copy can boost engagement by up to 50%, which translates to real results you can measure.

Ever feel like your online presence is drifting in open water, waiting for a lucky catch? By tapping into the expertise of a freelance SEO copywriter, you’ll reel in organic traffic that actually sticks around—why let your brand flounder when it can flourish?

Stop shouting into the void, wondering if your website is truly reaching the right audience

Here’s where SEO copywriting steps in—think of it as the engine oil that keeps all your digital gears running smoothly. According to Moz, strategic SEO efforts can boost your odds of landing on page one of search results, giving your brand a real fighting chance in today’s crowded online world.

Website content

Does your homepage need a fresh coat of paint? Or are your product pages lagging behind on search engines? SEO copywriting ensures each corner of your website is optimised to rank higher and attract more visitors. It’s like giving your site a lighthouse that guides the right people straight to your digital doorstep.

Blog posts

Consistent, engaging blog posts build trust over time—research from HubSpot (https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing) shows businesses that post frequently see up to three times more leads. With well-crafted writing that resonates, you’ll keep your audience coming back for more.

Articles

Want to position yourself as a thought leader? Writing informative, optimised articles for online publications can put you on the map in your industry. It’s not just about keywords—it’s about showcasing genuine expertise and sparking curiosity.

Social media posts

Ever feel like you’re tossing words into the social-media black hole? SEO copywriting can make those posts pop in search engines, driving organic traffic from platforms like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter—wherever your audience loves to hang out.

Google ads

Short. Punchy. Effective. That’s the beauty of well-targeted Google Ads. A freelance SEO copywriter ensures every word pulls its weight, helping your ads rank higher in search results—so you spend less and gain more.

By tapping into the skills of a freelance SEO copywriter, you can write your own success story—literally. Through high-quality content tailored to both your readers and Google’s algorithms, you’ll see a steady stream of organic traffic that actually converts. Why let your brand get lost in the digital noise when you can stand out loud and clear?

Melbourne copywriter Felicity Van Rysbergen

Just in case we haven't been introduced...

I'M Felicity, YOUR friendly word herder, conversion copy expert & new BUSINESS BESTIE.

Who am I to show you how to optimise your copy for more conversions?

Since 2001, I’ve created engaging, high-converting content for a diverse range of clients, big and small—some just starting on their business adventure and others numbered among the world’s most recognisable brands.

I’ve got an Honours degree in English (UniMelb) and a PhD in Journalism & Media (UNSW), specialising in online media. Because I’m a big nerd who loves research and wanted to know why people buy stuff, I’ve also got a Postgrad degree in Psychology (Monash). 

And just to top it off, I’ve delved into the dark arts of SEO and done formal training on how to make sure your on and offline SEO is purring along, and your keywords and copy work seamlessly together to get you more customers.

In my previous career life, I lectured in English and Professional Communications at The University of Melbourne and La Trobe, presented my research all over the world, and published numerous papers in international journals.

But I discovered I liked helping businesses herd their words even more, using my natural writing talent and neuromarketing know-how to take their sales and web pages from ‘blergh’ to ‘OMG, please take my money now.’

“Thank you so much for your help and general get it done attitude. It’s been a dream.”

I’m friendly, fun, easy to work with, & peachy keen to solve your SEO copy problems once & for all.

But I’ve also been doing this copywriting gig for over two decades now & that brings with it a whole boatload of pluses for your business:

  • I know how to optimise your website so people can find you online faster and easier than ever. 
  • I can craft word-perfect copy that makes customers clamour to choose you over your competitors (without the sales sleaze).
  • I get how to create a pillar post that brings you more business on repeat & we’ll make the process seem effortless.

And because I’ve been herding words for businesses just like yours for longer than I can count, I can do all the above faster and more efficiently than others with half my runs on the board.

Put simple, we love what we do, we know what we’re doing, & we’re focussed on getting you results, with no fuss (& preferably a few cheeky giggles along the way).

It depends on your project and how much copy, research & optimising you want us to do. 

I’m usually booked up a couple of weeks in advance so, if you’re ready, press go now so I can book you into my schedule asap.

Once you’ve filled out our brief sheet, paid your deposit, and I’ve had an introductory chat, it usually takes between 2 & 4 weeks to get a first draft completed for small to medium projects.

If you’ve got a copy crisis on your hands, let me know. I can sometimes juggle a few things (please note that I’ll add 25% to your estimate to fit you in, stat).

Hey, I know I’m not the cheapest. Neither am I the most expensive. And compared to the US & UK copywriting market, my rates are positively bargain basement (read our report on US copywriting rates here).

But, let me ask you, what’s greater visibility, cut-through, sales & brand loyalty worth to your bottom line?

Or, to put it another way, can you afford to leave your brand reputation & sales copy in the hands of a writer who’s less experienced? 

 

OK. Let’s get down to converting your online customers like a boss.
