Naming your business is an important part of launching your brand as a freelancer.

It is very frequently the first thing that your leads will find out about your business.

It needs to be compelling and engaging so that it will draw clients in while also summarizing your brand and identity.

Although naming a new freelance business can feel difficult and challenging at first, it should not have to feel like you are stepping off the edge of a cliff while wearing a blindfold.

With these steps described in the article below, you can improve the organization of your ideas and get the most out of your freelance business name.

Also, I’ve edited the article to make it better. Nothing but the best for my dear readers 🙂

So, let’s begin!

Build your brand

When choosing a name for your freelance business, it is useful to gather all of your branding ideas in one central place.

If you make a handy document, then you can check back to it throughout the entire naming process.

On your document, write down some of the things that you want to be central aspects of your freelance brand.

For example, you can answer questions like:

• What do you do?
• What are the values of your brand?
• Why are the freelance services you are providing important?

If others don’t feel that you are passionate and invested in your own brand, then they will likely begin to question why they should care about your freelance business either.

Writing down a number of existing freelance business names that you think are effective can help you brainstorm names for your own new business.

Make it a point to take down notes on each of these names and write down what do you like about them and if you want to try to achieve a similar feel or vibe.

Keep writing down existing freelance brand names that you like until you end up with a list of eight to ten of your ideal names.

After you have gathered the top names then you can start to dissect them.

Go through this catchy business name list to give yourself a head start.

Write some notes in the form of bullet points that describes what exactly you like about each of your favorite names and why they work so well for their company.

Analyzing and dissecting your top existing freelance business names in your field can be a great exercise to give you some direction for the naming process.

Think about your audience

Another thing that you should consider when launching your freelance brand is the audience you want to appeal to.

For example, a clothing line targeted at older, accomplished, and professional women will have a very different voice and tone than a fashion line for women in college. And there’s a good reason for that!

Your brand name needs to focus on who you are appealing to and more than just you.

Most of the popular brand names have a target audience in mind and connect to them through shared values and emotions that resonate with them.

Take, for example, the investing app Robinhood.

This app helps people make the investment process free and simple for the typical person, not just the ultra-rich.

Their brand name for their business not only encapsulates their values to a tee by utilizing the story of the heroic bandit Robin Hood.

Robin Hood is a great choice for a narrative because it appeals to the millennial audience.

The name is both fresh and fun and also aligns with the values of convenience and fairness that millennials hold in such regard.

Look into the future

Where do you want your freelance brand to be in five years? What about ten years down the line?

If you are planning on starting a freelance business that might grow into different areas in the future, be wary of selecting a name that pigeonholes your brand.

At the beginning of launching your business, you may be creating a sock brand. You may feel that the name SuperSocks could be a great fit for your business.

But if you want to expand into other territories later on such as hats or gloves, SuperSocks would no longer a suitable name.

This means that you would have to change your established name which could confuse customers and ultimately lose business. Planning ahead can help you avoid a costly rebranding process down the line.

Try to capture your mission and values in just a couple of short project statements like these:

• We need a name that captures our young, unique approach to selling high heels.
• We need a name that establishes us as a traditional and trustworthy brand.
• We need a name that hints at our animal-friendly business practices.

You can begin by writing a couple of project statements for your own freelance business.

Make Tough Choices

Now that you have put all of your ideas in one central place and have figured out what the type of name that you want, you can begin the process of coming up with name ideas.

One of the most important decisions that freelancers need to make early on when coming up with a name for their business is whether or not use their real name or a brandable name.

While there are merits to both of these options, it is typically preferable for freelancers to incorporate their own name into the business. This helps solidify the connection between the business and yourself.

Especially if you are the only freelancer working for your business, incorporating your own name into the brand name will make it clear to clients just who they’re working with.

On the other hand, if there is any possibility of expansion down the road, separating your name from your company name is a must.

Collect some names

Now, it’s time to put your thinking caps on.

Jot down every name you can muster that might work with the brand you are creating.

Don’t be afraid to think outside of the box, and don’t judge any of the names that you come up with at first.

Even if you don’t like it now, you may find that one of your brainstormed names could really resonate with your target audience.

Continue writing down as many names as you can think of because the more you have to cross off the list, the better idea you will have of the type of name that you are looking for.

When coming up with names, you must start broad.

Some names can be descriptive, intellectual, poignant, or classic. You can merge words to form a name or use two separate words to summarize your business’s appeal.

One helpful way to come up with brand names is by writing down an example for every type of name you can think of.

Getting out of your comfort zone when coming up with names will help you in the future and give you a variety of names to choose from.

Cut down your options

Finally, it is time to start making some decisions by cutting down the number of name options that you have brainstormed.

Start removing freelance business names that you know won’t work for you until you have only five or six favorite names remaining on your list.

Now that you have some great options to move forward with, this is a great chance to start getting second opinions from your friends and family. Another group to get feedback from would also be your target audience!

When asking questions about your name choices, don’t just ask, “Which of these names do you like the best?” Make sure you frame your questions more neutrally by asking something closer to, “Which of these brands would you be interested in learning more about?”

Lock down your domain name and assess your risk

A solid domain complements a great brand name. This is because your website is where your prospective clients will find out more about what services you offer.

So, it is best to have as close of a match to your name as possible.

Signing up for a domain name is another problem altogether. In fact, it deserves a post of its own.

However, instead of making it difficult for you, here’s what I suggest:

When signing up for a domain name, go with Siteground*.

It’s a web hosting platform that offers domain registration.

So why Siteground?

Simple: It makes your site load faster and respond better for your visitors.

After signing up for a domain and a hosting plan, you can build a WordPress site within minutes and enjoy its blazing-fast servers and excellent customer support!

Again, click here* to sign up now and set up your freelance business website so clients will come knocking on your door.

Trademark validation for your freelance business name is another great way to secure your name.

Run a trademark risk test so that you can rest assured that your brand name isn’t already in use by a similar freelance business.

Being proactive in preventing trademark risk will help you avoid any complicated legal issues.

Naming your freelance business is no walk in the park!

This post discusses the skills and discipline that the talented and most sought-after SEO article writers have. If you want the full process from keyword research to publishing, my complete SEO content writing guide covers it step by step.

By knowing these skills, you can build your writing business on these foundations or find a writer who meets these qualifications.

What separates good SEO article writers from the bad ones?

Before we start, this post is written by Rana Tarakji. Here’s a short bio about her:

Originally from the U.S., Rana Tarakji is an SEO analyst, the founder of One SEO – a multinational link building company -, and author of Off-Site SEO Guide: A Hands-On SEO Tutorial For Beginners & Dummies, who now lives in Beirut, Lebanon. Rana’s work has appeared in a wide range of publications in print and online, including Life Hacker, Upwork, Christian Today, Newswire, and many other outlets.

Also, I’ve edited the post and added my thoughts to make it more useful to you dear readers.

Get it? Got it? Good.

Let’s begin!

Researches for keywords strategically

One of the main factors that bring visitors to a website is when the content matches the keywords they searched on Google.

For professional SEO article writers, they never write content without a target keyword in mind.

This means they conduct adequate research prior to using keywords in their articles.

They dig deep and find out which words to best use if you want to rank for a niche.  Professional article writers in the SEO scene also learn about SEO trends and use them to their article’s advantage.

For example, people expect voice search to dominate SEO in 2019. Therefore, writers optimize their content for long tail keywords to rank for spoken (versus typed) keywords when the time comes.

Addresses user intent

The best professional SEO article writers know that behind every keyword possess an intent.

For instance, if you want to rank high for a keyword, you need to understand why users are searching for that keyword in the first place.

You can classify user intent may be classified as:

• Navigational – Do they want to learn more about the brands specific to that keyword?
• Informational – Are they looking for information about that topic?
• Transactional – Do they want to buy something that relates to the search phrase?

As you can see, for each type of intent, users have a corresponding agenda!

Professional SEO writers take the lead here by producing content that is most fit and helpful to the user intent behind your customer’s search query.

By imagining a preset persona of your target customer, they can generate articles that can offer a solution to each search query.

In turn, users get more enticed with every targeted solution your site has to offer them.

And the more users your writers attract with this intent-based strategy, the better your site’s organic traffic can become!

To learn more about intent-based keyword research, read this post at Search Engine Land.

Establishes content credibility

Creating content that matches your customer’s needs is one thing. But SEO article writers also ensure that each write-up they produce mirrors niche authority and credibility.

A mark of content credibility is its uniqueness and how insightful it is to readers. Regarding the latter, SEO writers research for information that can help back up their claims in the content.

Aside from fact-checking and source-citing, professional SEO article writers also take time to thoroughly proofread their work.

This is because they know that SEO-wise, well-written and error-free articles always attract natural links and stand a greater chance at ranking on top as opposed to those that are poorly written.

SEO article writers produce content that is readable and engaging

Professional SEO writers aim for the readability of their articles.

They are aware that engaging articles are the ones that are clear, organized, and, simple.

They lessen “fluff” and go straight to the point.

Every word and sentence on their articles are deliberate and purposeful.

That means simplifying industry jargons to help their target users understand the article.

The more logical and smooth-flowing the article, the better!

Aiming for the top (via featured snippets)

Another secret that professional SEO article writers keep is their constant goal of getting to the top of SERPs.

Your typical SEO strategy already addresses this with the usual on-page and off-page SEO campaigns. But professional SEO article writers may take a different route.

Remember the trend of voice search and the rise of search assistants (think “hey, Google”)? SEO writers aim their articles to respond to them through their articles.

So, when a user asks Google via voice search, their articles can turn up at the topmost part, also known as a featured snippet.

All they have to do is to make your site’s articles structured to a voice search-friendly format.

They do this by answering queries in a direct to the point manner. They can also make use of bullets and numbered lists so that the assistant can read the information one by one.

Finally, they fill their articles with statistics and facts to back up their content.

Maximizing content length

SEO article writers take time generating high-quality content. That also means (but is not exclusive to) lengthier content.

This hits your SEO goals in two ways.

One, it appeals to web crawlers and search engines more since longer content means a better chance to spread and utilize your target keywords.

Two, it enhances user experience. Assuming the content is comprehensive all throughout its 1,000-2000-word length, then you give more value to your site’s visitor as you offer him with more information.

Adding the right images

Professional SEO article writers know that articles are not just all about the text. They know that adding visual content like images and videos can help keep their focus.

This is because they understand that your site’s readers respond well to SEO best practices of including images within text posts.

Apart from providing a break from paragraphs, images can also help clarify the information that your articles convey.

For example, infographics and diagrams can help customers understand a complex concept that can otherwise be too wordy to elaborate.

But they do not just dump images and add an alt text tag to make it more SEO-friendly. Professional SEO writers attach images that are appropriate to the content.

When it comes to infographics, they either create one or choose a pre-made version. In any case, they include the ones that will increase your site’s organic traffic and not drive them away.

Creating catchy titles and headlines

Aside from ensuring that the title, headers, and tags of your articles contain your target keywords, professional SEO article writers make it a point to make the article titles catchy.

Titles are also a factor when you click on a search result. An article with an ambiguous and keyword-stuffed phrasing is less appealing than the one with wit and flair.

Leveraging social media

Professional writers who create content for SEO purposes use social media for SEO advantage.

Because social media feeds like that of Facebook are full of attention-grabbing content, they write posts with click-worthy headlines to gain traction to their social media followers.

They leverage the power of likes and shares to build better brand recall and recognition for your business.

They never fail to include a link of your site’s website URL on every post, so their followers can visit their site for more information about them.

Advantageous use of analytics

Aside from their content, professional SEO article writers also take their time to review the results of their content.

The information you can gather from platforms like Google Analytics contains useful SEO insights that SEO article writers can leverage.

Take for example data from bounce rate analytics.

A professional SEO article writer can infer which posts entice more users and which ones need improvement such that users stay longer in the page.

They then tweak the content of their articles to lower the bounce rate of each page and aim for more conversions.

Knowing what to avoid

Finally, what separates professional SEO article writers from others is how they keep track of which methods lead to penalties.

They don’t stuff your articles with keywords for the sake of optimizing them!

They know better than to use exact match keywords repeatedly and go for latent semantic indexing (LSI) to boost your overall SEO strategy.

They also avoid stale and old content and produce articles on a regular basis to keep their audience in the loop.

Lastly, these SEO writers know which tactics are useful and which common SEO mistakes to avoid.

Wrapping it up

These are just some of the things a capable SEO article writer can do.

Now, if you want to become one, then you need to take these tips to heart as well as their content writing advice.

Let’s face it – creating great articles are not enough in this day and age.

You need to get your articles that extra “oomph” that clients are looking for.

In this case, you need to hone your SEO skills to help your clients rank higher on SERPs.

Moreover, integrating SEO into your writing will help you land more clients in the future!

As for businesses, all you need to do is refer to these habits when looking for a writer for your blog or website.

Granted, there aren’t a lot of talented SEO article writers out there. But don’t give up and keep looking, they’re probably just around the corner!

Or maybe you’re reading one of their posts!

At this point, all you need to do is just ask! 🙂

So you just kicked off your career in freelancing.

You now that gathering contacts and getting the word out about the services you offer can be a challenge. You may have skills that people would pay for. However, finding leads who would pay for your skills is a different story.

This is because, as a freelancer who is just starting out, your network is still very small.

But don’t fret. Getting out from this predicament is not as hard as you think. You just need to use the right tool.

This is where email marketing comes in.

Why do you need email marketing?

It’s simple, really. Email marketing is not just affordable and easy to use. It is also an ideal investment and solution if you’re in for the long haul.

With email marketing, you can do the following:

Grow your list slowly but surely

It’s important to integrate email marketing into your contact-gathering strategy. But you need to remember that it is not an overnight solution. You don’t send out emails today and expect thousands of subscribers tomorrow. Email marketing doesn’t work like that.

Email marketing is a long-term investment. It will help grow your subscriber list and customer base. But it’s going to be a gradual, steady process.

Once you do get more subscribers and prospects, it’s much easier to make them stay.

Foster better and deeper relationships

Email isn’t the same as face-to-face interactions with your prospective clients. Still, it’s a whole lot more personal than paid ads, which a majority of users consider annoying.

People email one another using laptops and smartphones. Despite its cold nature, you can still personalize your emails as if you are talking to the reader directly. Some basic techniques include using the subscriber’s first name in certain areas of the email, such as the subject line and greeting.

Turn subscribers into clients

Email marketing is the perfect medium for showcasing your skills in order to get more clients.

Prove that you are an expert in your field and entice subscribers to hire you. Do this by promoting your best content pieces that provide your audience with valuable insight via email.

Let’s say you’re a freelance writer who specializes in writing informative content centered around tech. Your goal is to reach out to the managers of tech companies who might be interested in your services.

First, you must create a lead magnet about technology

Create something that will interest decision-makers in the tech industry. You may need to do extensive research about tech topics and provide unique insights into the niche. Generic topics about tech that have been done to death won’t work.

Once you’ve produced the lead magnet, it’s time to set up an email form. Ask readers to fill out their name and email so they can receive the exclusive content. In exchange, their information will go straight to your email list.

From here, you can craft a drip email campaign to email subscribers for your writing services. This will only work if the quality of the lead magnet is great. If so, then your chances of converting them into clients are high.

These are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what you can achieve with email marketing. You can accomplish a lot of goals with too—as long as you properly plan and execute your email campaigns.

How to start with email marketing

If you are ready to go on your email marketing journey and want to have a successful career in freelance, then you have to start email marketing the right way. Here’s how:

Find the best email service provider for you

With countless email service providers (ESPs) available, narrowing down the most suitable one for you can be a daunting task. After all, choosing an ESP does involve making certain considerations.

This doesn’t have to be the case, though. You just need to do the proper research in order to make an informed decision.

First, think about your budget.

Email marketing does not have to be expensive. Pricey ESPs work best for companies and enterprise. There are affordable platforms for freelancers on a budget.

Also, don’t subscribe to an ESP just because people are raving about it. It’s best to try out the tool first and form your opinion from there. You’re the one using the tool, so what people say shouldn’t matter.

Some people leave sour reviews about free or cheap ESPs. However, if they work like a charm for you, then use them! There’s no accounting for taste, really.

Next, outline all the features you’ll need in an ESP.

Not a design expert but want to create emails that grab attention? Then you need an ESP that comes with a range of beautiful templates that you can tweak in an instant.

Do you want the ability to analyze and measure email performance on a regular basis? Then you need an ESP that offers useful analytics.

Good customer support is also crucial for freelancers. Your ESP’s customer support team should be able to quickly assist if you simply need help with the service. This is so you can focus on working for your clients.

Looking for an ESP that has all these features and more? Then look no further than Campaign Monitor, an ESP that gives you the power to design beautiful, professional-looking emails, create highly personalized customer journeys, and analyze and monitor email data.

Make it easy for people to subscribe

Your ultimate goal is to gather contacts who you’ll hopefully convert into paying clients. Therefore, make signing up to your email list as convenient as possible for.

Provide visitors with several ways to sign up for your email list. Place CTAs on various pages of your website like your homepage, your blog posts, a dedicated landing page like this one Elna Cain’s website.

Make the process simple for your prospective clients. It will incline them to subscribe to your newsletter and learn what you can offer.

Get to know your subscribers

Ask people for information from your subscription forms that will help with your personalization and segmentation efforts. Aside from their name and email addresses, your form should also contain the following:

• The industry that the potential subscriber is in
• Their position in the company? (Junior Marketer, CEO, Business Owner, etc.)
• The type of newsletter content they’d like to receive

You can ask more questions depending on what service you offer. Ultimately, this information will enable you to:

• Personalize your email templates according to the receiver (different templates for different industries)
• Segment your lists and deliver unique content to each list (content for CEOs is different from content for marketers)
• Deliver relevant content that your subscribers want to know.

Automate your emails

Being a freelancer means juggling the work for multiple clients all at once. This will likely leave you with very little time to do anything else. However, your ESP can do the work for you.

Automating your emails saves you time from manually sending emails to each and every one of your subscribers. Set up your email automation once as well as the triggers and rules that determine when to send the email.

If done right, then all you need to do is sit back, relax, and watch the engagement rate skyrocket!

One of the easiest (and most effective) emails to automate is your welcome series. Set up the trigger on your ESP and it will send your welcome email to every new subscriber automatically.

The timing of the email matters too. Research has revealed that it is best to send the email within the same day that a subscriber signs up.

Here’s a simple yet attention-grabbing welcome email you can use for inspiration.

(Source)

Other emails you can automate include:

• Client inquiry emails – Send an automated email to subscribers who inquire about your services or asks for a quote. In the message of your email, tell them you’ve received their inquiry and that you will be getting back to them within a specific timeframe. This will make them feel more valued as clients.
• Thank you emails – Send an automated thank you email whenever you receive payment from a client for services rendered. It shows that you appreciate their business, which builds loyalty and develops your relationship with them.
• Birthday emails – If the subscriber indicated their birth date, you can offer them a freebie or a discount for your services.

So do you know now how to start with email marketing?

This post is by no means an extensive email marketing guide. The purpose of these tips is to simply to help you get the best start you can with email marketing. If you follow the advice above, then you won’t waste your time, effort, and hard-earned money.

Getting a good grasp of the fundamentals will also make improving your future campaigns and strategies much easier for you.

That being said, you have to keep in mind that there is no one-size-fits-all email marketing strategy that applies to every freelancer. Your strategy will depend on numerous variables such as your budget, the type of service you offer, the industries you cater to, and so on and so forth. This means that your strategies will differ from other freelancers.

There is one thing that will be the same for you and every other freelancer out there. You all need to master these email marketing basics.

A career as a freelance writer can be very rewarding. Getting paid to write is a writer’s dream. But it’s one that requires hard work and dedication.

If you’ve got a passion for writing and you want to turn it into a full-blown career, you first need to learn how to build a freelance portfolio that will generate business. Here’s how.

Build your website

Before you start writing, you’ll first need to a website to display your work. WordPress is the most popular choice for creating an online portfolio, as it’s free and easy to use. But if you’re more tech-savvy, you might find creating a website from scratch preferable instead.

As a general rule of thumb, your freelance portfolio should include:

• About page: be clear and concise with who you are and what services you provide.
• Contact page: this could be a simple form, or you might offer your email address or social profiles.
• Blog: as well as being good for SEO, blogs also display your value and expertise to potential clients.
• Portfolio: a collection of your most recent work, with samples and links to live posts.

It’s important to be discerning when you’re choosing which pieces to display on your portfolio. It can be tempting to post every bit of work you’ve ever done, but as is often the case, quality is better than quantity.

Takeaway tip

Select 5-10 pieces of your very best work and display them prominently. While you can certainly link off to other work you’ve done, ensure your best work is placed front and center.

Find your writer’s niche

Most freelance writers, while certainly talented enough to do so, don’t write for any and every industry out there. Instead of casting a wide net, you can catch more fish by being super-specific with the kind of work you do.

Finding your niche is important because it helps potential clients determine whether or not you’re a good fit for them. Zeroing in on a specific industry show that you’re authoritative in your subject, rather than possessing only a shallow knowledge.

Potential clients will often want to see an example of your previous work before signing you up. For example, providing a healthcare brand with a sample piece on digital marketing (no matter how well written) won’t cut the mustard.

Takeaway tip

Once you’ve identified your niche, do some keyword research around it and optimize your site accordingly. This will help your portfolio appear in search queries from clients looking for writers in your niche.

Editor’s note:

Deliver authority and value

Potential clients will view dozens of writing portfolios as they search for a freelancer. To make your freelance portfolio stand out from your competitors, you need to go the extra mile.

As well as displaying a collection of your best, most recent work, consider offering something extra that prospective clients won’t find anywhere else.

Every portfolio should include a blog. It’s a chance for you to pass on knowledge and convey your authority on a subject. But go beyond the blog and offer something no-one else does.

For example, you could set up a basic e-commerce store and sell an online course or product related to your niche through it. Alternatively, buying an existing business and revamping the stock is a simple trick to save you time. Or you could host webinars on your chosen niche and charge a nominal fee for attending.

Integrating these with your portfolio doesn’t just provide you with an extra source of income. It’s also a chance for you to display industriousness and authority in your given industry too.

Takeaway tip

Go beyond simply displaying your work on your portfolio. Dazzle prospective clients by offering value and authority to make your portfolio stand out from the crowd.

Implement a guest post strategy

Perhaps the easiest and most popular way to build up your portfolio of written work is through guest posting.

In a nutshell, this involves emailing websites, blogs, and digital publications and asking if you can write for them. You might already have some sites you want to write for in mind already. But if not, a quick Google search can help you find potential opportunities.

Simply enter your industry keyword and “+ write for us”, and you’ll find dozens of possible options:

Before pitching your ideas, read their guidelines and existing content thoroughly to get a feel for the kind of thing they want to publish.

Regularly writing for sites in your niche doesn’t just build up your portfolio either. Getting your name in industry publications helps build visibility for your work and your services too.

Takeaway tip

With guest post outreach, it’s important to be open about what you want. Politely request a backlink to your portfolio to help potential clients find you. And for outreach at scale, use email automation to coordinate your efforts with ease.

Editor’s note: For guest blogging outreach, I suggest you use Ninja Outreach*. You can find relevant contacts of bloggers, create a drip email campaign to submit to  them, and automate the sending process so you can just wait for their replies.

Did you learn how to build a freelance portfolio?

Going freelance as a professional writer is a big step, and requires enormous effort and commitment — but it’s doable. Create and build up a strong online portfolio, and put a regular guest post strategy in place. In doing so, you will get visibility for your work and your services. You’ll soon build up a strong client base that will form the basis of a successful career as a freelance writer.
