    I have two new sites and I'm looking for a decent article writer. I'll need an article a day and they don't need to be more than 2-3 paragraphs. Who do you guys use? What is the general costs that I should expect? Any feedback is REALLY appreciated. Thanks!

    I have been writing content for a while now but kind of swamped at the moment. I'd recommend looking at the Buy, Sell, Trade section here. Content writers are plentiful. Just make sure you find one with good reviews.

    The going rate is $0.01 per word but might be a little bit more for you if you want the content writer to also submit the content via Wordpress or something like that.

    Oh..! Didn't anyone recommend me yet!? :D

    The ongoing rate is 1cent a word for uniques and half a cent per word for quality REwrites that can pass off as uniques in most cases. You can always test a writer and be sure to check the iTraders/feedback/reputation before you finalize on someone.

    Try one of the freelance sites like Elance, unless you are a cheap charlie then try DP.

    If you want quality articles you can get someone to wirte for around 1-2 cents per word. Off course there are people doing it for a lesser amount, but the quality is not all that good.

    Thanks for the feedback. I do realized that I should post in the marketplace to hire someone but I wanted YOUR feedback on what to expect b/f doing so.

    SO, anywhere from 1/2 cent for reworded articles per word to about 2 cents a word huh? This seems much better than doing it myself!!!

    Should I expect the content to be tailored to my city?? Or just my profession, real estate?

    Thanks so much everyone!!

    Also, Should I expect to tailor the titles of articles or do I typically have to name only the genre and let the writer tailor things??

    Thanks!!
