    Well, do you want low quality content that will simply take up space? That is what you get when you use an article creator over a human freelance writer. If you like your website at all and expect to make any money from it, you should be willing to invest in a real writer. I am not talking about those cheap writers in the marketplace either.

    If you are considering a piece of software to create your content, you might as well just sell your website now and save the world wide web from more cookie cutter websites.

    Do you want your site to be eaten by a rabid Panda? (AKA Pandalised.) Probably not, so avoid such junk. Pretty much well the message in every post, so hopefully you get the idea by now?

    If you are paying someone, ask to see examples. Look for someone who writes for humans and not for search engines. An immediate red flag (for me) is people who write SEO-friendly articles. Journalists write for humans, so spend some time reading newspaper articles and studying the structure. Learn what to look for. You might want to look through the articles at:

    http://www.nngroup.com/articles/

    It used to be useit.com and has moved there. There are plenty of interesting articles, but of use to you are the Writing for the Web ones. Even if you don't want to write the articles yourself, you need to understand so that you can choose a good writer.

    I am agree with this......nothing is better than human's brain....because it has the capacity to create lot and lot and lots of new thoughts and new techniques....
    In a machine there is a limited capacity to work but our mind has unlimited techniques and function to work better then the machine on tool...

    There's one point to be made independently of whether you write your articles or somebody else does, or whatever. The subject of the article on your site, needs to be something you're passionate about. With that approach you'll more readily give people a good read (a good experience) when they come to your website. And you'll more easily be able to brighten up any article that's written for you. Yes you can be very successful and make a lot of money from some subject which barely interests you. But you burn out faster that way and risk disliking what you're doing. In brief: it ought to be something in which you're very interested.

    Here's what I recommend:

    1. Ask yourself what you questions you had about your niche when you first wanted to learn about it.
    2. Add to that the questions that you have since discovered that people are asking now.
    3. Start creating article titles, e.g. X ways to do this; Y ways to do that: Z things that most people overlook, etc.

    If you're just starting to write, you'll probably find that it's a lot easier to begin this way.

    4. Stick with 3, 5, or 7 points you want to make.
    5. Write an introduction of about 3 or 4 sentences to your topic.
    6. Write 2-3 sentences for each of your points.
    7. Aim to make your articles each about 400-500 words.
    8. Do your very best on each one.
    9. Give yourself the time that is needed.

    If you do all of these things, then the quality of the articles you write will improve and you will get faster at it.

    You know your niche better than anyone on the planet. But, you just need some practice in telling others about it.

    This may not be the answer you want but I'd still take transcribed content over something from - what was it again - "article creator" ?

    How much are you paying your writers if they are sending you rubbish? Are you trying to build a business out of $4/500 word content because if so, you are in a massive pond filled to the brim with fish all trying the same thing. You'll end up spending so much money on hosting and content hoping against hope for the big one that the only people making any money will be the sort of people who sell "article creator".

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings but maybe you need to rethink your business strategy? I wish you the best of luck.

    Do you want high quality content for your website or cheap content that might be frowned upon by the eyes of Google? Cutting corners in this business is not the way to go about things. Competition is fierce and if you want your website to remain on top then the content must be superb.

    If you're not interested in writing your own content, and you're not interested in paying someone else to write content for you, why don't you just download PLR articles? There are millions available in every imaginable niche out there.
