That's what I thought. So I was pretty surprised when I saw people advertising their services at a price much lower than that.

 

The average rate is $.01/word and I'm not trying to raise it ( depends on what I need .. if it's a huge article, I can pay a bit more ).
I know that there are a lot of writers who are willing to do this job for $.10/word, but sorry man - $30 per article is a bit expensive, isn't it ?

 

Back in August and September when the times were good the normal rates were also high..But now the current rates are $1/100 words
However, if you are really very good then you can command about $2/100 words..

 

i will pay only $40 per article (450 words)

 

3$ per article of about 300-400

 

Wow. Really? Isn't that amount too high? I shouldn't be one to complain though. LOL

 

$40/Article...OMG!... I want to work with you...

 

It depends on the quality of the work, but generally if its a 3 out of 5, I will pay about .01 per word, if its 4 out of 5, its .02-.04 and if its 5 out of 5, its anywhere from .05 per word and up.

 

Where do you guys buy your articles from?

 

Not more than $10 for 1000+ words articles.

 

AdrianMoss, if you want to buy ready articles, you can find them under CONTENT. Or you can hire writers at CONTENT SERVICES. Both are under Buy, Sell, Trade.

 

I pay 5usd per 500 words article.

 

Sorry friend, I never hired anyone for writing articles nor I did it for someone, so I won't be able to comment much.

But I think it should depend on the quality of the article and how meaningful it is. If it has the potential to create a dynamic impact of the visitors, then surely its worth charging more for that article.

BTW, which niche of articles you normally write?

 

I usually pay for $5 or $6 for 300 words

 

Well, the topics I cover are diverse. From health to diseases, earning money to paying debts, internet technology to Ice Age stuff, weight loss to weight gain, pets to plants... just about anything, really.


To everyone who took the time to post here, I just want to thank you for providing me some valuable information. It seems to me that the rates are pretty decent and some would even pay premium for quality articles.

So this only means I'm in the right place then. Thanks for your time!

 

I would pay different amounts depending on who is writing the content. I have seen some pretty terrible writers here on DP with pretty bad English. I wouldn't pay these people anything, as why pay someone when you can do it better yourself for free. For an average writer, I'd pay maybe 0.01-0.02 per word depending on the content.

 

I think it's too low?

 

The ordinary webmaster would probably not be able to pay more than $0.01-$0.03/word.

It is relative, but most of them hardly manage to make their money back.

At the higher end of the spectrum, you could get anywhere between $.10-$1/word.
