You wouldn’t use street slang in a financial report, nor would you use work jargon while you’re out with friends.

Imagine this … Henrietta is reading your sales copy. One paragraph, two paragraphs, three paragraphs, and onwards. She feels a butterfly fluttering in her stomach as she pictures a better life in front of her. Eagerly, she clicks the Buy button. Another web visitor arrives, reads, clicks. And another, and another, and another. And you? Ka-ching. You hear the tills ringing.

Two HTML elements that have the ability to drastically affect your SEO (in both good and bad ways) are hreflang and canonical tags. Improper use of either could cause incorrect pages to appear for users, or for Google to index an incorrect version of a web page. Complicating things further, many SEOs confuse hreflang and canonical tags since they both serve similar purposes.

10 important strategies for managing client expectations as a freelance writer I’ve worked with more than 100 clients over the past 10 years—I’ve seen it all. But there’s one thing I truly believe is absolutely critical to successful working relationships: managing client expectations.

As a long-time workshop leader, I’m in awe of how some writers are masters at putting themselves on a path of creative self-destruction. In a way, it’s a beautiful, albeit demented, thing to behold—sort of like watching Glen Powell wrangling that F-5 tornado in Twisters. As a writer myself, I watch them and think, Wow.

Remember when every brand seemed to be having a “ brat summer ?” I’m being a little facetious — I enjoyed the chartreuse memes and apple dances as much as anyone. But in recent years, the concept of timeliness in a content marketing calendar has become less about utility and more about jumping on trends for the sake of relevancy. Don’t get me wrong: there’s a time and place for incorporating memes and internet discourse into your content strategy.
