Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
Writing text for the website or for the brand is permissible.
However, if you are aware that your efforts will be surrounded with impermissible content, for example, obscene pictures, then we advise you to abstain from such association.[1]
However, if you are uncomfortable writing for the company, it is best you abstain.
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
