I need a good article writer

Hi. I am in search of a good article writer, that will periodically post on my directory blog about SEO, web community, web 2.0 feel, but it can also post about any other stuff like communication, motivation and so on... The articles need to have extremely quality, because I am looking posting them on wikipedia at external links. The writer will be payed only after a week, if the article remains linked on wikipedia, but you can imagine that the reword I will give would be very satisfying.
pm your offers, your portfolio, if you have one, if not, there is no problem, as long as you respect my reasonable demands.

 

Most of the writers who can prepare material of the caliber you're seeking may not be thrilled with your conditions. After all, their potential payment is tied to your marketing and overall website - not to mention sheer luck.

I haven't visited your site (or know what it is), but I can see that as a major sticking point in your offer.

Despite that, there might be some writers out there who like a gamble. Best of luck with your project!

But my deal is very fair. I am only trying to strength up my site. The writer can even submit the link to wiki as he pleases. If he gets me what i want, I pay him. A lot. Isn't this fair?

 

The way I am reading your request, you are asking a writer to prepare high-quality material for your site. You will then link to that piece from Wikipedia.

To be linked from Wikipedia, the material must be 100% factually correct, flawlessly written and not be a duplicate or even similar to ideas or work already existing. This should be no problem for the sort of experienced writers you're seeking.

The catch is that the best material in the world can be housed on a site that editors of Wikipedia find lacking, or it can be viewed as a duplicate or unnecessary link by anyone with the ability to edit the page. (This should not be viewed as an insult to your site - it's probably terrific.)

So, a writer can pour his heart and soul into great content, link to Wikipedia and see no return on his investment if someone else's site gets there first, or if a "better," more authoritative site replaces it.

Is it fair? It can be if the writer is willing to take the risk. Of course it is a mitigated risk, but a risk none the less.

Of course there are plenty of writers who love risks. And we all know that higher risks tend to produce higher rewards.

Your offer should be very appealing to those who have the talent and confidence to produce the sort of material you're seeking and don't mind taking a bit of a gamble on high payouts.

I hope it all works out for you!

PM sent, plz check

 

To get a link from Wikipedia, you'll need two good articles: one on Wikipedia (maybe you already have it?) and one in your blog.

 

Of course, there is a risk. But keep in mind I am risking too, and my risk is much bigger. I can pay for the article, get the link, and after 10 days (or 20, or 30 and so on), get deleted. I have lost my investment, my money, and I remain with nothing.
@boron: not necessarily. You can just add some external links to some content lacking pages.

 

Well, I actually have one article written: it's about constipation (5,900+ words), it is based on thoroug research and should meet the quality demands of Wikipedia.

 

pm me to talk more.

 

Actually you are left with the article, not nothing. I would add that links from Wikipedia are notoriously difficult to get and maintain and that you will nonetheless benefit from the article.

If your concern is paying too much for a high quality article, then consider paying less and removing the requirement that links remain in Wikipedia. I imagine you will have more bites on that bait.

 

im not totally happy with conditions but i will do the job if the payment is upfront for the 1st week.

"Actually you are left with the article, not nothing." - I don't care about the article. I don't even care about the subject. All I care is the link. I have explained this over and over again. You can take your article back, if the link to it is deleted. I have no use of the article, without the link.
I don't pay upfront, sorry. These are my conditions. Practically I am looking to buy links here, not articles, and in my opinion, I pay pretty damn good. If a link remains of wikipedia for more then 7 days, I will assume the risk of loosing it after that, and send you the money.

 

It's maybe not my business, but why do you want a link from Wikipedia? You probably know that links there are "no-folow" since lately, hence they won't help you in SERPs (if someone has different opinion on this issue, can say it).
So, traffic?

 

I agree that an article of the quality you need is going to take a lot of work to research and write. Good luck finding someone who will put that much effort in without any idea guarantee of what they will get in return.

I'd echo boron's question - what are you trying to achieve with this? Is it for traffic? If so there may be better ways to get it within the area you are working.

 

Guys, your effort won't be in vain. As i said before, you could keep the article if anything goes wrong. And as I said, I just need a few wikipedia links. I don't care about the no follow attribute. I only asked for interested people to pm me. That is all.
