What is a Ghostwriter?

Ghostwriter. There’s some truth in the name. Not that the person writes about ghosts, but is a ghost himself, as it were. You don’t see ghosts. So it’s a writer you don’t see. 

Why should you hire a ghostwriter? What kind of work can a ghostwriter do for you? And how do you get a ghostwriter? Those questions have been answered for you in this article. 

Why Should you Hire a Ghostwriter? 

Hiring a ghostwriter has many benefits. Let’s say you’re a busy entrepreneur. And you want to keep your brand high and keep posting consistently on your blog and your socials. You’re too busy yourself, so you hire a ghostwriter so they do the work for you and you can take credit. 

Simply put, that’s how it works. A ghostwriter does the work for you and you can use it under your own name. This saves you a lot of time that you can spend on other things, such as meetings with your team or customer relations. 

It also means that you don’t have to read up or research on certain topics you’re ghostwriting for. You can still appear as an authority in the search engines, such as Google, when someone searches for topics related to that topic. 

Suppose you have a blog about crypto, which is a more difficult topic for many. Then it is also nice to get a ghostwriter who also has knowledge about crypto, and preferably also SEO. As a result, your blog articles are of good value and rank high in the search engines. As a result, you come across more as an authority on crypto matters.

What Kind of Work can a Ghostwriter Do for You? 

Ghostwriters are asked for a variety of projects. Small or large projects, nothing is too crazy. From a simple flyer to an entire book. From a song to a speech. From one website to 20 websites. Ghostwriters can create it for you. And you can publish this with your own name underneath. 

That’s what it’s all about: that you can publish it under your own name. So it doesn’t matter what you ask them to write. Even if it’s a blog post for your website, a speech, or a script for your video, it’s ultimately yours. Your blog article. Your speech. Your script. 

Ideally, you would like to have someone who has expertise in the area you are asking someone to write for. So if you have a blog about beauty, make sure that person also has some knowledge about it. Or that the person is willing to do research to still write the best blog articles. 

How do You Find a Ghostwriter? 

A ghostwriter is fairly easy to find. Just type in Google and you’re bound to find someone. It may be a little more difficult to find someone who has expertise on the subject you want them to write something for. 

But apart from that, you can often also turn to copywriters. They also have the knowledge needed for this, often offer this as a service and are willing to do extra research on a topic when needed. 

In addition, you have one important advantage when you choose a copywriter, like me, over a ghostwriter. A ghostwriter only delivers words, while a copywriter also delivers results with a specific goal in mind, such as increasing conversions, more visitors, more views, etc. 

Recap 

A ghostwriter can write the texts you need for you. It doesn’t matter if it’s a blog article or an entire book. You may use these texts under your own name. Ghostwriters are fairly easy to find on Google. Most copywriters even offer this as a service.
