Content Writers - 5/13/2008 15:35:18
Hi Folks,
Anybody had success finding consistent content writers? Some think their pen/keypad oozes gold worthy of a Pulitzer and others simply can't write. I have used Helium, and a few other "writer resources" but I can't find people who are really prepared to partner up and take ownership of the sites content, (for a fee I am more the willing to pay of course)
Money is not the issue. It is simply finding people who love the subject matter and paying them to write without me telling them everything they should write about. I get very blank responses when I tell the writers who supposedly love the subject that they cannot write to much content.
Thanks
Barry

I have found a few on Digitalpoint - you really have to watch for quality. I know of a published writer that goes for $0.14 per word.

Thanks Mojo - I will check them out
Jaybee - Specific stuff. For instance if I have a cient that really can't write the filler content for his site but is willing to pay to have an expert craft the content.
Another example is content for blogs, marketing material, etc.
You can find a large group of folks on Helium but the process is a bit combersome and I really don't know if you can get exclusive stuff.

There are hundreds of content writers on DigitalPoint. A good writer can write about anything if you give her good material.

Interesting Post this.
My neice is an English Graduate and recently asked me about getting into content writing. She's very good too. I'll pass you her email if you want to give her a try.

Getting content writers who will offer quality write ups is not an easy job and it's always better to begin small before handing a bulk project to someone who delivers crap.

. The biggest problem is finding someone you can trust that really reseached and created original content versus scraping from another site.
