Precious Oboidhe — Freelance Content Strategist and Writer
Quick word about me.
I’m a freelance content strategist and writer whose marketing journey began in 2017. I specialize in creating blog content, case studies, and doing content refresh.
My experience includes working as a content marketing specialist at Foundation, a B2B marketing agency. There, I helped brands like Sprig, Tinyseed, and Panther. I also work with brands like CoSchedule and HubSpot, and marketing companies such as Belkins.
One thing I do so well for my clients is to create or update blog content so they rank on search engines. This is vital because content that ranks on page one of search engines gets at least 90% of user clicks.
The translation: content on page 2 and beyond has a lesser chance of generating sales from search engines.

Belkins: How to Generate Sales Leads: A Guide for Sales Managers
- ✅ 4251.85% increase in traffic
- 27 visits — February 2023

Now that you’ve checked out these writers, I’m sure you noticed two qualities.
First, these writers work in a particular industry or write a specific type of content. Meaning they are specialized and have expertise in their industry or about the content they create.
Second, these experts are more than writers. They work as consultants, provide strategy, hire writers, and can help with your entire content production process.
With these qualities, they can help you dominate your market, attract your audience, and generate results with your content or copy. Next step: hire any of them before their calendar fills up with projects from other brands.

What is the basis for long form and short form blog post classification? What is the word count for the two categories of blog posts?
Some persons write just short form articles. Others write long form and most writers do both. Short form articles are usually under 2000 words and long form are over 2000 to 3000 or more.
