what i make & what it costs · bloomington, in

the menu

Here's everything I write, spelled out with real prices — no “contact us for a quote” maze. Read it top to bottom, then pick the shape that fits where you're headed.

the three things i write

each one, up close

These are the pieces that make up every package below. You can also buy any of them on their own — prices are further down.

the workhorse · from $475 each

seo blog articles

1,400–2,200 words built around a single search intent — the how-tos and comparisons your buyers Google before they ever hear your name. I research the query, outline it, write it in your voice, add the internal links, and hand it back formatted for your CMS. No thin AI padding to hit a word count.

the anchor · from $2,200 each

pillar pages

The one long, authoritative page a whole topic cluster orbits around. I map the sub-topics, structure it so Google reads it as the definitive answer, wire in schema-ready headings and internal links, and write an argument that keeps readers scrolling to the bottom. This is the page that pulls your other articles up the rankings with it.

the follow-up · from $1,450 per sequence

email sequences

The messages that turn a first-time reader into a lead while your articles do the quiet pulling. Welcome flows, nurture series, re-engagement — usually four to six emails, written so every send earns the next open. I map the trigger, write each email, and set the timing logic your platform needs.

i'll tell you straight — even if the answer is “not yet”

monthly packages, billed per plan

what you get, side by side

All three are month-to-month — I'd rather keep you because it's working than because you're locked in. Everything already written stays yours if you pause, keyword map and all.

$850one time

the fine print, minus the sneaky parts

what's baked into every price

01

research before a word is written

Every piece starts with the actual searches your buyers type — not a guess. If a topic won't pull traffic, I'll say so before you pay for it.

02

edited by the same two eyes

Nothing reaches you that hasn't been read line-by-line and shaped to sound like you. No rotating account managers, no mystery outsourcing.

03

handed off publish-ready

Formatted headings, internal links, meta title and description drafted — you paste it in and hit publish. No “now hire someone to lay it out.”

04

it all stays yours

Articles, pillar pages, keyword map — if you ever pause or leave, everything written for you goes with you. No hostage clauses.

send me your site — i'll send back a real read and the package i'd actually pick for you.
