Our Content Agency Story

Article Writers Australia was established in 2009. We’re a small content agency located in Sydney. Initially, we provided only content writing services, but in 2014 we expanded our services to offer clients a more coordinated approach to content creation for their brands. Our ethos has always been one of providing high quality content services for clients, and flexible work conditions for our content writers.

Strategy & writing services

In addition to a range of writing services, we assist clients with content planning, editorial calendars, topic research, and content strategy assessment and documentation. We’re familiar with inbound marketing methodology, so we’re well placed to assist with your inbound marketing campaigns by creating ebooks, writing regular blog content, and preparing your EDM copy for automated marketing workflows.

A modern business culture

Happy workers make for happy clients. Our aim has always been to create an environment that allows our team to enjoy a flexible work schedule. We believe that people come first. And we want everyone who works for us to be able to prioritise family matters without guilt. We manage projects in the cloud and our writers are located in NSW, QLD, VIC, and WA. Most other team members, including our content strategist and senior editor, are based in Sydney.
