The student interviews supply chain problems via web research, crafts narrative examples, and optimizes for long-tail keywords that factory owners actually search.
Frequently asked questions
Can the student use AI writing tools, or does it have to be entirely human-written?
The student may use AI for research assist and outlining, but the final article must be substantially human-written, edited, and fact-checked by the student under PM review. We verify originality and quality before delivery.
What counts as 'one revision'? Can I ask the student to change the angle entirely, or rewrite half the article?
One revision means one round of feedback addressing clarity, tone, SEO optimization, or factual adjustments—typically 10-20% of the content refined. A major rewrite (new angle, different structure, entirely new section) falls outside scope and would require a second project.
Will the article include internal links to my existing pages, or just external sources?
The student will suggest 2-3 internal link opportunities in the draft and flag them clearly, but you must provide the target URLs so they can be added. External sources are researched and cited by the student.
If my topic is very niche and has little search volume, can the student still deliver?
Yes—the student will optimize for the best available keywords in that niche and structure the article for readability, even if monthly search volume is low. Let us know upfront if the topic is highly specialized so the PM can assign a student with domain knowledge.
Do you provide the final article in a specific format, or can I choose between Google Doc, Word, and plain text?
Default is Google Doc for easy collaboration. Word (.docx) and plain text are available on request—just specify when you submit the project brief.
