    I think I am at that turning point of a bum marketer when I am trying to decide whether or not to start paying for articles to be written for me.

    I am just wondering how many of you that promote clickbank products outsource your articles?

    What is a good rate? Anyone you can refer to me?

    Nah, I write my own. Two reasons for that:

    1. It's free
    2. Improves your writing skills

    Yeah I outsource .........and write my own.

    I usually get 400 word articles written from anywhere between $2-$4 per article.

    No I can't refer them to you or else they end up buried under in work then I can't get my articles done but there are good writers here on DP.

    I suggest doing both, even though I don't do it personally, you can easily double the amount of work you get done, without needing 28 hour days.

    agree..

    write and outsource..

    while you write get someone else to write..

    you literally double the amount of articles you publish per week.

    Not anymore. I've done it in the past. I've just got burned too many times by just awful articles. I've found I'm a much better writer than any of the freelancers that are willing to write for as little as I want to pay :)

    What I do is for every 2 articles I write. I do one outsourced. So if I put out 6 articles a day only 4 of them were written by me. My problem is my brained gets fried after my 3rd article.

    Hello All,

    I write most of my articles, but I do outsource when I either don't want to or don't know much about a particular niche. But I also have been burned quite a bit in the past with articles that were so poorly written that they were useless.

    When I do outsource, I generally pay between $3-5 per article.

    Joe

    I've been a good writer since grade school so up til recently, I've written all my articles.If you can find a good writer, I would suggest both. I recently entered a new niche that I'm not very familiar with. So for me at times it is a good decision to outsource.

    Right now I write all of my articles, but I've been thinking about outsourcing. I'm kinda a lazy guy and think it would be nice to have others write for me.

    I outsource all my articles. This way I can go for volume and get more
    traffic.

    If I am reviewing a product I write it myself. Anything else I outsource. Usually 25 articles at a time and pay 6 - 7 dollars per article through Get A Freelancer.
