This site is the just the beginning of who I am and what I do.  :)

Check out some of the other places you can find me online:

Blogs

The Social Freelance Writer – This is my blog where I help freelance writers see the benefits of social media.  Of course, you don’t have to be a freelance writer to read it – there are lots of goodies for everyone.

A Dynamic Life – This is a more personal blog where I talk freely about my cats, my kids, weight loss, the television shows I’m obsession over, and whatever else comes to mind.

Live Without a Job - This is my newest project and I am so in love with it.  All the design modicfications were made my me using Thesis theme.  Yes, I’m a Thesis junkie!  And I love the topic!  Helping people understand that there are options beside the traditional 9-5 job gets me so revved up!

About Me

I have been a freelance writer for 8 years. My main service is blogging and article marketing with an SEO focus. Over the years I have written on a wide variety of subjects including cats, dogs, scholarships, and health. I have also written several e-books. Recently I have been writing on the topics of diet and exercise and careers.

One of my most recent projects is the Robertson Reader blog, which I manage for Robertson College. I have been involved in every aspect of running and maintaining the blog, from blog posting to promotion to ideas for topics. The blog is focused on providing readers with information that can help them choose a school or a career and do better at their jobs.

I am also the persona behind the social media campaign at Robertson College, one of Canada’s oldest business colleges. With a growing Facebook page and two Twitter accounts and a YouTube account, Robertson College will be the one you think about when it comes to colleges that are taking a lead in social media in the future!

When I am not writing or having fun with social media I am spending time with my family. A recent move from the city to my small home town has allowed me to quit my day job as an instructor and start writing full-time. I live with my husband and two teenaged children and two very lovable cats. I love the small town life and I love working as a writer and a text media professional!

    Susan Lincoln Rice of Master the New Net says:

    Danielle is, quite simply, the best. Fantastic writer, great listener and very professional. In fact, Danielle is MUCH MORE than a writer as she has many other skills ranging from the ability to train and manage projects to social media. Not to mention she is one of the nicest people you could ever meet. I highly recommend her. I know she is a much valued member of my team.

    Sharon Hurley Hall of Get Paid to Write Online says:

    I’ve worked with Danielle several times and found her to produce consistent and reliable work. Articles are always well researched and written and meet the brief. I have no hesitation in recommending her for writing work.

    Jessica Mousseau says:

    Danielle’s writing is well-researched and extraordinary. Her attitude and work ethic is refreshing to someone who has spent years trying to find a reliable and “good” writer to work with consistently. She has a natural writing talent and can write on a variety of topics.

    Tess Taylor of 3T Web Design says:

    Danielle McGaw is a skillful writer who I’ve had the pleasure of working with on several article writing projects. She is fully committed to the work she produces, which is well researched and delivered on time. As a business owner, I appreciate that Danielle is reliable, communicates well and I don’t have to worry whenever I need something written – I know I can depend on Danielle to do it right the first time and every time.
