Marco M.
Native Italian Localization & Proofreading Specialist | SEO Copywriter
Hi! I'm Marco — a native Italian localizer, proofreader, and SEO content writer who's been making Italian-language content sound native and perform on Google for over 10 years. Not translated. Not adapted. Rewritten and refined by someone who thinks, reads, and searches in Italian. I work with SaaS companies, e-commerce brands, and digital publishers that need Italian content — and full websites — to read like it was born in Italian, not run through DeepL. What I do: Localization — full website and product localization, including Shopify stores, UI copy, onboarding flows, microcopy, and marketing content adapted for the Italian market, not just translated word for word Proofreading and editing — marketing copy, medical and scientific texts, literary and poetic works, across industries including gaming, fragrance and beauty, automotive, and apps of every kind — grammatical precision, stylistic consistency, tone alignment, and elimination of English calques and unnatural structures SEO content — long-form articles, landing pages, SaaS feature pages, product descriptions, help centers, knowledge bases, spanning iGaming, informational, commercial, travel and tourism, and finance content — structured around search intent, content architecture, and strict brief adherence If your Italian content reads like a translation — or simply isn't performing — I can tell you why. And fix it.
