Directory of Minneapolis/St. Paul
Technical Writers and Editors With many search engines, it can be difficult for clients to find technical writers and editors. In a search for "Minneapolis technical writer" on Google, for example, the first 100 results usually yield a handful of technical writers or technical writing firms located in or serving Minneapolis, Minnesota. Some search engines do a better job. However, searching for such combinations as "Minneapolis technical documentation", "Minneapolis freelance technical writer", "Minneapolis contract technical writer", "Minneapolis documentation specialist", "technical writer resume Minneapolis", "Minnesota freelance technical writer", "Minnesota contract technical writer", "Twin Cities technical writer", "Minnesota documentation specialist", "finding good technical writers in Minneapolis", "identifying technical writers in Minnesota", or other variations can be problematic. At best, the results may include links to technical writers from other parts of the country whose resumes mention the word "Minneapolis" or " Minnesota". At worst, the results may also include links to irrelevant or out-dated web sites that just happen to include those search words, including generic "work at home" sites. None of this makes it easy for prospective clients to find technical writers and editors. For that reason, Winzig Consulting Services, LLC maintains a Directory of Technical Writers and Editors in the Minneapolis/St. Paul Area on our Minneapolis Technical Writer web site. You can also search our Web Resources page for other web resources on technical writing. |
