Vergouwen Media

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am an Online Marketing Manager, working for an SEO tool provider.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Vergouwen Media?

We wanted to create a high number of articles for the wiki on our website, so we hired Bram to help us with the content creation.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We hired Bram because he doesn't only have great writing skills but also convinced us through his vast knowledge in the SEO field.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

After providing Bram with a list of target keywords/topics and a guideline document, he created and optimized the articles on his own and delivered them with the required markup, so we only had to copy them into our CMS.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

All the communication and workflows were handled by Bram personally.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

With Bram's help, we were able to complete our wiki which makes it a valuable resource for our users. Our organic traffic increased significantly since we published the new articles.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The overall workflow was very smooth. After sending over the topics, Bram delivered the articles timely and was very responsive to the feedback he received from our team.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What I find most impressive is Bram's eagerness to make his clients 100% happy. He always offered me to ask for as many changes as were necessary to perfectly meet our requirements.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Some of the articles derived from the original number of words that we agreed on but as soon as I let Bram know about this issue, he made sure that all articles have the required number of words.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We’re a company developing affiliate marketing properties localised to various different EU-markets. I’m responsible for the financial and organizational tasks within the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Vergouwen Media?

Bram helped us with content writing, translating (NL-EN & EN-NL), and proofreading articles on several topics. Both the English and Dutch content was well-written and well-optimized upon delivery. We have been working with him for 4 months now and expect to continue doing so for the foreseeable future.

What were your goals for this project?

When developing affiliate marketing properties, it’s important to create well-written content as well as optimize the content for SEO.

So, our goals were to work with a specialised content writer in our field, ideally one who can offer his services in two languages (in this case, both English content writing & Dutch content writing). Ideally, it would be someone with experience in SEO too to ensure the content was well optimized upon delivery.

SOLUTION

How did you select Vergouwen Media?

We are impressed with their past experiences in the industry. Also, their past SEO experience. After an initial paid test project, we decided to hire him long-term.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have been able to expand into two markets quicky and get a substantial amount of content created in a relatively short amount of time. By proofreading our English content and quickly & cost-effectively translating it into Dutch, Bram helped us both improve the quality of our content as well as increase the pace at which new content was created.
