Our language services to support businesses and web agencies

Web writing, also known as content writing, is the service of writing texts for websites, blog articles and online newspapers, posts for social media and other content for the web.

In contrast to writing technical texts, for this content editors use creative writing, which is characterised by an attractive and engaging style, as the aim is to entertain and inform readers by conveying value.

Not only web writing and SEO content writing

With strong language and technical skills in its local offices, SMG Languages supports the global strategies of companies, institutions and major international communication agencies, providing content writing services for the web with certified quality, in over 160 languages.

When it comes to online marketing, in addition to web writing, activities such as content management, SEO translation of content and SEM are increasingly important. SMG can build a comprehensive strategy that also integrates these services to manage all aspects of corporate communication.

The importance of professional web writing

Nowadays, we are surrounded by content and, whatever activity we engage in, we are literally inundated with information of all kinds.

It is not easy to disentangle oneself from the maze of the web. There are in fact several elements to take into account when creating and optimising web content for foreign countries, some of them linguistic, others more specifically IT-related.

To achieve the goal, therefore, the best solution is to choose a combination of different services for web content management in foreign languages, such as:

Taken individually, however, these tools are not enough and you need to know how to combine them to best effect.

For example, however accurate, the simple translation of content does not necessarily generate an increase in visits from the foreign target audience. Creating multilingual content aimed at foreign audiences can be a good starting point, but it is not easy, because it might be considered irrelevant and ignored if you are unaware of the detailed needs, customs and habits of the target audience.

This is why our linguistic and socio-cultural knowledge is a decisive added value in our web writing service and in our multilingual SEO translation and content management!

How do we perform foreign language content writing and SEO web writing services?

Optimising web content in a foreign language requires several preliminary analysis and research activities. Below, we briefly describe some steps in our management process for content writing and SEO web writing services:

1. Strategic web marketing assistance

Our trusted linguists around the world can start by assisting clients in market research and providing translation services. These language services facilitate the client and SMG in defining the strategic plan, which identifies what is to be promoted on the foreign market, how and when.

2. Choice of key words and concepts for the web writing service and web communication

  • Checking keyword popularity and competition in the foreign target market, including through online benchmarking. Specifically, keywords are chosen as follows:
    • What are the key concepts of the product/service?
    • What words/expressions do the reference competitors use?
    • Which words/expressions do potential foreign customers use most when searching online?
  • Selection of strategic keywords for the individual pages of the proprietary website, in foreign languages.
  • Localisation of web content, aimed at identifying the most specific language to ensure better positioning in particular geographical areas.

3. Website text optimisation

We optimise your website pages using SEO:

  • We insert the chosen keywords strategically.
  • We use a clear, correct and informative logical syntax.
  • We implement visual elements that are consistent with the logic of web communication and comply with the rules for the use of markup languages (bold, italic, headings, paragraphs, bulleted lists, etc.).
  • We optimise the Meta Tags according to the key words and concepts.
  • If necessary, we can assist the customer by performing advanced operations e.g. concerning the URL, IP server or Site Map XML.

4. International link building

The purpose of this activity is to increase the number and quality of backlinks (links from an external website to the page/domain to be sponsored) in order to increase the domain authority of the client’s website. There are various techniques for this, such as subscribing to industry directories and article marketing sites, and blogging. The quality of the links is measured by the authority of the website on which they are featured.

5. Monitoring results

Finally, we produce periodic reports showing the ranking of individual website pages with respect to users’ key searches in major search engines and in the different languages.
