About Me
I'm an exceptionally skilled writer, designer, and entrepreneur. No, I'm not AI.
Briley Kenney
SEO Expert | Contributing Editor | Content Manager | VP of OperationsI'm 38 years old, and I have been a freelance writer, copywriter, and entrepreneur for over 15 years.
Presently, I am the Senior SEO Copywriter for Commerce Strategy at Digital Trends. I work closely with my team, the editorial team, and our clients to craft exceptional prose. I also create a lot of content for DTMG's affiliate sites, including The Manual, 21Oak, Newfolks, and beyond. My cigar guides are a pretty big deal.
For a long time I was an SEO expert at Code 9 Media. I served as a Content Manager and sidekick for the CEO, Chris Kite. He's a cool guy and he gave me a lot of free rein.
As a member of the Ideaing team. I was originally hired to write about smart home products and entertainment. The site was eventually converted to a deals portal. I posted new deals daily and managed several aspects of the brand including a bi-weekly email newsletter.
Also, I was previously a member of the Lifewire team. We produced "how-to" content, intending to educate others about topics like technology, software, current events, and more. For a time, I also worked with the Lifewire commerce team to review products and create round-ups.
I wrote "best of" and long-form content for GadgetReview.
Finally, I also work for [confidential SEO company] generating content daily. Most of the work I create for the company is published under different bylines. I have also signed an NDA which is why I cannot disclose the name. I do that a lot. I'm no stranger to trade secrets.
Unfortunately, what matters most is what you don't see. So much of my content has been published under a different byline. You've probably read my destitute words somewhere and didn't even know! If you're interested, you can view a list of many topics I have covered for confidential clients.
In my free time, I worked with Little Killerz on an Android-based RPG called Tales of Illyria. I created the website copy and tailored most of the design elements. There are three games in the series, and across all of them, I have personally written more than 250,000 words.
I now work on an NFT project called Hype Beasts serving as a writer and dev, and designer in some capacities.

This is the stuff I'm good at!
Give me a topic and I'll do the research and give you a solid, engaging piece of content.
I have created a veritable treasure trove of content on a variety of topics: B2B, tech, thought-leadership, SMBs, hospitality, gaming, Wordpress tutorials, pets, health and fitness, parenting and more.
Check out my portfolio for a list of projects I've been a part of. You can also take a look at more of my published work here.
SEO optimization really start before you write. Plugging in keywords after the fact provides no value.
I research, create, and optimize content on a daily basis. All of my articles include high-ranking keywords, meta details, and more.
I'm no stranger to edits. I'll provide content that's free of grammatical and contextual errors.
That said, I know how to work with clients, accept edits and suggestions, and find common ground to deliver a piece that makes everyone happy.
I am also an experienced content manager, and I have been tasked with leading a team of like-minded creators many times over.
Website copy, blogs, emails, TPS reports, you name it!
If you want it to be punchy, it will be punchy. If you wish it drab, then drab it will be.
I hunt through the wilds for suitable images to elevate the content. That includes editing the images to improve clarity, quality and style. Fly you fools.
To create a website you need working knowledge of HTML.
I have designed several websites including the examples listed here.
Dream a little dream of ASCII.
What are webpages usually covered with? Images!
I spend a lot of time augmenting content with PBLs (that's logos!), sponsored imagery, watermarks, and visual elements.
I can handle outreach and secure hyperlinks for products, reviews, and more. If you link it, they will come.
Since a young age, I have always been fascinated with computers.
I have built several custom computers for myself, family, friends, and colleagues.
Not relelvant to my writing at all, but it's still cool!
I use software like Microsoft Office to write, and additional tools like Photoshop to edit images.
The list of software applications I am familiar with is virtually endless. Every day I learn something new. It includes Excel, Word, Outlook, Google Docs, Dropbox, Asana, ClickUp, seoClarity, Ahrefs, MOZ, WordPress, Grammarly, screen capture tools, video editing apps, and much more. Way too many to list!
If you must know, ask.
While I do know HTML and CSS well enough to create website from scratch, I prefer to use WordPress.
I have created multiple sites in WordPress including this one, Vulgamer, Techigar, HypeBeasts.io, and many others.
I also work with WordPress and other CMS platforms daily to publish content.
Even I'm impressed with the WordPress overdress I've created here.
Did you create some content? Fantastic! Now, it must be promoted and celebrated.
Over the years, I have handled the social media accounts for Code 9 Media, Ideaing, Hype Beasts, and many others. If you want help promoting content on platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, and more, I'm your man.
