Why us?
Big Star Copywriting has been a content writing partner for search and digital agencies in the UK and internationally since 2005. That's, like, aaaaagggges ago. Back in the stone age of digital marketing. For reference the first iPhone was released in 2007. Imagine us like one of those chimpanzees at the beginning of 2001: A Space Odyssey throwing the bone in the air. Yeah. That's us. Kind of.
Not to blow our own trumpet but we've been here almost since the beginning, certainly since before everyone started talking about content marketing, conversion rate optimisation, mobile first and all that shizzle. Back then it was just "SEO copywriting". SEO people just posted articles on directories and got number one on the SERPs virtually within the week. God, if only it were that easy nowadays.
Nearly a decade and a half later, we're still an affordable, reliable option when you need quality copy produced quickly and within your budget.
We know how boring that sounds. And we'll throw our hands up – we're boringly reliable.
How do we sum up the parts of Big Star? The best we've come up with is that we're the Volvo of copywriting agencies – we're not flashy, we're not sexy but we'll get you where you want to go safely and without breaking the bank.
“Managed to turn around a large amount of content in a very short time frame. Throughout the communication was great. Wouldn’t hesitate to use Big Star again in the future.”
Rebecca Polding – Project Manager – Present Finder

Michael Woodhall – Head Of Content – The Hut Group
“We engaged Big Star services nearly 3 years ago and they have become an integral part of our company providing guidance and
copywriting for our website and marketing campaigns. This has seen significant improvements in the traffic to our web site and direct contacts with business lead generation. Their knowledge of best practice for SEO and PPC is significant and they continue to play a valuable role in our business development.”
Julian Mead – Client Services Director – Inform Communications
“Over the past two years, Big Star have helped us deliver a large number of projects for the likes of Qatar Airways and Hertz. Based on the timely and professional manner Derryck and his team have operated in those past two years, I would gladly recommend them to any current or future client of ours.”
Andrew Tonks, RBBi
“Big Star supported the re-launch of one of our travel brands with site content. A large volume of content was delivered on time and adhered to our brand guidelines. Strong project management skills were demonstrated. I would recommend Big Star as a supplier for similar projects.”

“The Big Star team are quick to understand how we want to communicate deliciousness and add a level of expertise. They know their food. They know their copy. It’s a great match.”
Meredith Fortescue – Account Manager – Ape Creative
“For startups like us, it’s important to be able to rely on your copywriters to get it right the first time. The biggest benefit of working with Big Star was the flexibility that comes with being able to rely on their work, ensuring we were always able to stick to our planned timelines.”
George Rapley, minicabit.
“I have used Big Star for a number of years now and their services have become an integral part of our company workflow. There is no doubt our business has grown due to the copywriting and guidance given by Big Star. We are saving money every day on advertising through their expert knowledge of best practice for SEO and PPC. Highly recommended”
Tony White – Owner – Bonners Music
“We spoke to Big Star early in our social networking journey and was probably the most useful piece of advice we had received. They were interested, positive and realistic, helping us look at the long game and to use our early experiences as a learning journey. Highly recommend!”
John Woodhouse – Managing Director – Safeguarding Network
