✍️ Copywriter (SEO & Marketing Content) — Remote

Write high-impact content for diverse brands.

At WebFX, you’ll focus on what you love and do best: writing. Enjoy consistent, meaningful work across a wide range of industries, supported by a team that helps you grow.

We’re a full-funnel revenue marketing agency with 700+ team members worldwide, and we’re looking for talented copywriters who can adapt, think critically, and produce high-quality content for a wide range of clients.

 


 

💡Why This Role Stands Out

  • Fully remote, global team — work from home no matter where you are located

  • Consistent workload and stability — no freelancing uncertainty 

  • Comprehensive benefit package — enjoy healthcare, vacation, holidays and more!

  • Wide variety of projects — write across industries and formats

  • Structured growth paths — clear expectations and merit-based promotion tracks

  • Strong support system — work with expert writers, editors, project managers, and proven processes

 


 

✏️ What You’ll Do

You’ll create content that drives traffic, engagement, and conversions across a wide range of clients and industries.

Your work may include:

  • SEO-driven blog posts and long-form articles

  • Website and landing page copy

  • Sales and service page copy

  • Product descriptions (e-commerce)

  • Thought leadership and “skyscraper” content

  • Middle- and bottom-funnel (MOFU/BOFU) content

You’ll also:

  • Adapt to different brand voices, tones, and audiences

  • Conduct independent research to ensure accuracy and originality

  • Collaborate with editors and project managers to refine content

  • Manage a steady pipeline of assignments while meeting deadlines

 


 

🧠 What We’re Looking For

We’re open to junior through senior writers— we provide in-depth training, so all you need is strong fundamentals and an eagerness to learn and adapt! 

Core requirements:

  • 18+ months of professional writing experience (agency, in-house, or freelance)

  • Excellent writing, editing, and proofreading skills

  • Ability to write across multiple formats and industries

  • Strong ability to assume a client’s voice and style, adapting to various brands and audiences

  • Strong research skills and attention to detail

  • Ability to work independently in a remote environment

  • Availability for a full-time (40 hrs/week) schedule

Bonus if you have experience with:

  • SEO copywriting and keyword optimization

  • Digital marketing or B2B content

  • Content strategy or performance-driven writing

  • AI-assisted writing workflows

 


 

🛠 Technology & Tools

Experience with or ability to learn tools such as: 

  • Google Docs 

  • WordPress or other CMS platforms

  • Grammarly / Hemingway

  • SEO tools (SurferSEO, Ahrefs, SEMrush, Clearscope)

  • Task management tools (Asana, ClickUp, Trello, Basecamp)

 


 

✅ What Success Looks Like

  • You consistently deliver clear, engaging, error-free content across formats

  • You can quickly adapt to new industries and brand voices

  • Your drafts require minimal revisions and align with client goals

  • You manage deadlines independently and communicate proactively

  • You improve over time—applying feedback, refining your writing, and expanding your skill set

 


 

🚀 Learning & Development

We believe in getting 1% better every day and invest heavily in your development:

  • Structured onboarding (“Bootcamp”) to set you up for success

  • Ongoing training, Lunch-and-Learns, and internal resources

  • FXLearns program — get paid to continue learning

  • Transparent and clear, merit-based promotion paths

 


 

💰 Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive pay based on experience and location
  • Global health insurance
  • Annual merit-based compensation increases and promotional structure 

  • Fully equipped in-home office setup including PC, dual monitors, headset and webcam

  • Access to proprietary tools and platforms

  • Long-term stability with a growing global company – many of our global team members have been with WebFX for 10+ years, and we’re hoping you can be, too!

  • Support from a team of leading industry experts and a team of editors, copywriters, and project managers.

  • Opportunities to contribute to global charitable initiatives such as FXBuilds - You can learn more about our contributions here!

🕒 Working Hours

This is a full-time remote role with region-based schedules designed to overlap with your team. You’ll maintain work-life balance through a Monday-Friday 40-hour work week, working from the comfort of your home.
