    Good evening folks!

    WARNING: If you outsource your article writing you absolutely need my help. Act now before it's too late!

    I'm here today to offer you an interesting service that I haven't found too many people advertising elsewhere. Back in the day, I used to write quality articles for $5 a piece all day long. These were long, informative, and of course very well written pieces of literature.

    Due to outsourcing these days however, the price of an article has traveled below $2 / piece, and the QUALITY of the work has suffered accordingly.

    For all of you that outsource your article writing, KEEP READING! ;)

    When you pay some international writer $1.00 per 500 word article, you are often left with an article that has decent content, however lots of spelling and grammatical errors... That's where I come in.

    For $1 per article, I am willing to proofread and make grammatical corrections to an article your outsourced writer has created. Think of it this way...

    1) Hire an article writer for $3 / hour to write articles for you. Let's say he can create 3 articles in an hour. --> That's $1 per article!

    2) Unfortunately, the articles seems to be written by an uneducated English speaker and lack the grammatical finesse of a naturalized speaker. :eek:

    3) For $1 per article, I will spend up to 10 minutes proofreading and correcting grammatical errors in the article. I will "Americanize" it.

    That leaves you with excellent sounding articles for only $2 a pop!

    Sound interesting? Shoot me a PM and we'll talk from there! :)

    Outsourcing is poor practice unless agreed to by the client. It is dishonest and should not be encouraged. The other floor with this is that in order for it to work someone must be $3 per hour again this is slave labor and cannot be encouraged.

    There are plenty of places where people are more than willing to work for $3 an hour. (Odesk, MicroWorkers, Amazon Turk, etc). How is it immoral to take someone up on their offer of service? All I'm offering is a cheap way to correct their innate writing mistakes.

    ApeXX,

    Owe you an apology mate - I am for outsourcing since that's what I do. I had multiple windows opened and was responding to a comment about someone who said outsourcing was bad and it was a form of slavery - hence I made the comment - Go tell John Reese that. I posted it in the wrong window - my bad!
