Do you need a UK Writer?
Do You Need To Use A UK Based Writer?
A lot of webmasters outsource their UK website writing needs to freelancers as it gives them more time to develop the rest of their business. A UK copywriter or UK ghostwriter can be a great solution.
But with an ever increasing number of writers from other countries offering their services online, does it matter which country your chosen writer is from?
The short answer is that it could well do. If your website and your business are based in the UK then a UK writer will often be the best fit for your needs.
But why is this? Surely the internet is accessible for research from anywhere in the world? And so long as the person writes in good English shouldn’t that be all that matters?

This is actually where a lot of webmasters come unstuck when it comes to hiring someone to take care of their UK website writing needs. If you hire someone who doesn’t live in the UK there is a chance that the work they submit to you won’t be written with UK spellings. This means you will either end up going backwards and forwards to the writer to make sure everything is right, or you will have to edit the work yourself to solve the problem. Hardly a good use of your time!
But there are further problems with hiring a non-UK writer to do your UK website writing. If your business is specific to the UK (for example you may have a financial website that gives out information and updates on the latest credit card offers, bank accounts and so on), then it is highly unlikely that anyone but a UK writer would be able to provide you with articles and website copy that are backed up by a thorough knowledge that can only be gained by living in the UK.
It’s tempting to go for the bargain basement prices offered by writers living in some other countries when you need work done, but it can turn out to be a false economy in the long run. By choosing the right people to handle your UK website writing needs, you can be assured of getting just what you asked for.
