Do Ghostwriters Know How to Perform SEO?

Ghostwriters have varying amounts of knowledge. While some only write articles to help drive traffic and build page rank, others know more about on-page optimization for your site, meta tags, building manual backlinks and other tasks that usually fall to search engine optimization firms.

When you choose ghostwriting services that have a vast amount of knowledge and experience behind them, they can be a very valuable asset to your online business. Many write not only articles, but web page content that is optimized well for your key terms and phrases. They may also write press releases, special reports and other content. Some even help you with your keyword research!

If you decide to hire a ghostwriter to help increase targeted traffic and page ranking, look at the information on their site to see just how much they do know. Also notice if their are client testimonials, and what kinds of rates they charge. You will find that ghostwriters prices range anywhere from "too cheap" (you get what you pay for) to exorbitant. Many charge $95 per article and more, which absolutely DOES NOT mean that the quality is any better than that of a ghostwriter who charges $12 or $14 for an article. Do your homework!
