Here's what I need:
- rather long(2000-3000 words) but interesting articles, each detailing one travel idea(3 days - 2 week plans)
- nicely formatted with proper paragraphs and headings
- include recent/estimated prices when mentioning travel, accommodation or enterance fees(local currency + usd equivalent)
- find 5-6 relevant non-licensed photos for each article
- correct English but rather relaxed, easy flowing style :)
- only original content, no copy-pasting, no article spinning. Those will not be paid for!
- be positive and inspiring but not overly enthusiastic.
- For each article, browse [login to view URL] and include 2-3 highly rated and popular hotels along with links to hotel details page.
Articles should be SEO optimized in a following way:
1. go to google keyword tool: [login to view URL] (you might need to register)
2. type in the name of the place you're writing about
3. search in all locations, english language, laptop and desktop devices
4. in advanced settings, filter by low competition only and more than 1000 global monthly searches
This should give you a list of keyword ideas, or in other words, related things to write about. Try to include those low-competition terms in your article as long as it's fitting and adds a value for the visitor.
Article topics(feel free to propose your own):
- romantic valentine's day escapes
- a week around Luzon, Philippines on a budget
- Best diving spots in Philippines(Anilao, Coron, Balicasag, Boracay, Malapascua, Subic Bay, Bohol, etc.)
- Backpacking through South East Asia(Thailand - Cambodia - Vietnam - Laos - Thailand)
- Interrail train trip around Europe
- Unexplored Balkans
- A month in Central America(off the top of my head, include: San Blas Islands, Bocas del Toro, Boquete, Arenal Volcano, Monteverde, san juan del sur, volcano surfing in leon, granada, lake atitlan, antigua, roatan, chimaltenango, quetzaltenango, ambergis caye, playa del carmen)
- 2 weeks around Morocco(Marrakesh, Agadir, Casablanca, Fez, essaouira and those mountains in the south east)
- spain and portugal in a rental car(include prices and rental companies)
- Japan tour with the bullet train pass(include prices and terms)
- separate article for Tokyo only
- south american circle(colombia, equador, chile, argentina, brazil)
- most popular spots in SE Asia and when you see them to avoid the crowds.

Hi I have lot of experience in travel writing.I have completed a certificate course in travel and tourism. I have traveled to many countries in Europe and Asia. So I can finish this project successfully within the given period of time.
I may be new to freelancing, but believe I have the experience to write you a captivating and informative article on backpacking the SE Asia trail (Thailand-Laos-Cambodia-Vietnam). I have spent over a month in each country exploring by motorbike and living on a shoestring, so I also could be of use in writing about how to avoid crowds in SE Asia. I also have a BA in English and Anthropology with a concentration in creative writing and cultural anthropology.
Have traveled the world in the last 10 years with Hilton International and also being self employed, staying in some of the top Hotels in the world, training, getting to know different nationalities and experiencing many adventures.
Greetings! I am a Native English speaker and U.S. citizen here eager to put my skills to work for you. My initial bid here is for 1 (one) article, as described by you in your original post. I can provide at least 1 article per week, possibly even more.
Having worked as a freelance professional for the better part of the past 10 years, I can assure you that I'm a self-motivated individual who knows what it takes to meet and even exceed your standards and goals as a client. I have an extensive online portfolio of previously published work - samples are available upon request.
I specialize in technical writing, but I have experience in website content, general articles, blog posts, newsletters, and news briefs / summaries. I also have an extensive background in SEO and SEM.
I believe all of these skills can work in tandem to provide you with the exact web content you are looking for in a timely and efficient manner. I am available for immediate hire and might be open to a long-term position if one presents itself.
Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to working with you in the near future.
