Attention article buyers!

    Hello!

    I was just wondering if anybody here is willing to pay over $10 (for example, 20 dollars) for very high quality 500-800 word articles?

    To be honest, some of us high quality writers on the forum can't justify the time taken to write for online buyers when we can get higher rates offline.

    With six years of experience as a professional writer/perception management consultant, I'd love to write for some buyers here, but it seems people generally tend to pay less online. Any thoughts from buyers?

    People pay less for low quality work. The people charging $4 for 500 words produce low quality work and generally don't get return customers.

    $10 is a fair price for 500 words of quality and unique article.

    Right, $10 is fairly good for a standard 500 words article.

    I am a writer myself, looking for some good writing offers.

    At 0.04 a word, a 500 word article comes to $20. This is the starting rate for a high quality article. Although I've seen a few people pay that here, it's only for those that have been around for sometime and have good itrader reviews, which means establishing yourself as a competent writer first.

    My thoughts are that we can start off at $10/500 words first and if the quality is good, I am sure we will be noticed.

    Did you try Constant Content? They expect very high quality, but then there are writers that get paid 0.08 per word too. Only disadvantage with CC is that you will only be paid when you article is sold. That means waiting ......

    To your online success!:)

    Hi,

    No offence intended, but I have seen the output of the "quality" wordsmiths that offer their wares on this forum. Consequently, I like to see some samples, particularly in the field in which I wish to buy; in this instance, it is sport. I'd gladly pay the rates you mention, but the term "quality" often means very different things from the perspectives of buyers and sellers.

    Please PM sport-related samples.

    Thanks!
