I have masses of experience in working online including launching websites and blogs. Here's just a few examples...
I have a strong pedigree in digital editing. I was the editor from launch of Shiny Media's Bridalwave.tv for three years. Along with creating the taxonomy and identifying trends, I wrote and commissioned concise, SEO-friendly content on topics including wedding/bridal, fashion, beauty, wellbeing and lifestyle, taking site from zero to 195,000 readers per month. I grew the brand online through methods including SEO and social media, created the tone and style to position Bridalwave as one of the world's leading wedding sites and forged relationships with PRs, businesses and other bloggers giving it a strong reputation.
I have also written over 600 consumer technology/ gadget reviews for Shiny Media's women's technology blog Shiny Shiny, contributed to eco blog HippyShopper and also written TV reviews for TVScoop.
I publish a design and homewares trends blog Hygge Nook (nominated for the mydeco and London Design Festival's Design Democracy Award) and as well as contribute to other blogs such as family travel site Have A Lovely Time.
I even write and lecture about blogging. Here's a recent piece I wrote for Freelance Writing Tips about creating a successful blog (click here).
But what can I do for you?
I can create your blog be it for personal use or to for an easy to use company blog for you and your colleagues to provide up to date information at the click of a button. I can arrange for registering of a domain name, create a template and design a custom masthead. I can even get you started by providing content, categories, source images, create widgets and more. I would be happy to provide well researched, professionally written content on a regular basis. Please get in touch for a quote that can be customised to your needs.
I am also available to write features about blogging or provide expert comment for your feature whether you're writing about commercial blogging or the rise of the personal blog.

The feedback: “Camilla is hugely professional, producing reliably good work every day for Shiny Media. She has proved to be a great asset, working on a number of sites for us over the years, and crafting Bridalwave.tv into one of our largest and most successful sites. She's one of those people that you can rely on for anything, and every day we count our lucky stars that she's on board, running her site with a minimum of fuss, and an awful lot of good humour and verve. She's a gem, and a joy to employ.” Katie Lee, Editorial Director, Shiny Media.
“I can't recomend Camilla highly enough. She has been a core member of the Shiny team for over two years now delivering superb quality editorial day in day out. She also has a delicously wicked sense of humour. I am happy to give a more detailed reference to anyone who requires it.” Ashley Norris, CEO, Shiny Media.
