Articles:
Since 2012, I’ve written well over 1,000 articles for a wide range of clients. These range from production company blog post updates of about 500 words to educational institution rankings of 4,000+ words and everything in between. Often, my articles have significantly increased the visibility of my clients through strong SEO performance, the presentation of dedicated research and by discussing subject matter in a unique way. Here are some of my favorite pieces from over the years:
Client: Misbar
Info:
This is one of a number of blog posts that I wrote for the fact-checking website Misbar. This specific piece uses my upbringing and analyses of media outlets to argue against the claim that US press was being “Sovietized” under Biden. I believe that my argument is cohesive, and it gives a strong overview of my writing style. These blog posts had more of an opinion angle, but I also wrote a wide range of non-opinion based fact checks, which is the next linked piece.
Client: Misbar
Info: This is an example of a non-opinion piece fact check. This came about when I noticed a number of social media users were claiming that the Constitution had been flagged for offensive language on the National Archives website. I then investigated the National Archives site and discovered that the offensive language disclaimer was used sitewide, disproving the social media claims that this was evidence of an attempt to abolish the constitution. This piece also highlights my research and writing skills and my ability to present facts in an engaging yet unbiased manner.
All Getaways
Client: Leaf Group
Info: This is one of a number of articles that I’ve published for Leaf Group’s All Getaways website. The articles need to be well-researched while also conveying the authoritative style of a resident New Yorker. This specific article required me to research the best getaways from New York City for families. I personally sourced and researched all of the locations, attractions, places to stay and travel information. Overall, I think it does a good job of explaining the where, when and why of some of the nearby and more distant getaways surrounding NYC.
Client: Pipe Up Media
Info: This is one of dozens of 4,000+ word rankings that I’ve written for Pipe Up Media’s education-focused sites. This article, which focuses on colleges that have enacted and are enacting criminal justice reform, is a typical example of my work for the client. I began by identifying a number of sources that indicate criminal justice-focused colleges and then performed research into all of the colleges that these sources listed. This final research then informed my final ranking. To date, a wide number of colleges have publicized their entries in my lists through press releases and blog post updates. This has been great for SEO for my client. Also, I’ve been working with Pipe Up Media continuously since April 2018, which makes them the current client that I’ve been working with for the longest.
Client: Shareably Media
Info: This is one of hundreds of pieces that I’ve written for the Shareably family of websites. This one specifically is a slideshow of images with written content. My work was to find the images, put them in the slideshow and then write the intro and the humorous descriptions. Next up is one of the non-slideshow pieces I wrote for this client.
Client: Shareably Medis
Info: This article is an example of the most common content of the Shareably sites. To make these, I watch a video of the content that the client wants to be turned into an article and work out how to put the beats of the video into the article in an engaging way. After I’ve written the content, I take screenshots and insert them between engaging parts of the article.
Client: Flagship Visuals
Info: This is one of a series of blog posts that I wrote to promote Flagship Visuals, a Virginia-based production company. It explains why YouTube is a great resource in three simple points. This writing is more marketing based than my other work on this page. I still believe that my voice is present and the content is written in a way that will entertain the reader.
