Hi everyone, I'm a blogger by profession and has been gained expert author status in ezinearticles and some other article submission websites. I've worked with some freelance websites like elance, GAF, guru etc. None of them seems impressive though. Clients are not even ready to pay more than $5/500 words for well researched and quality content. After the first work most of them will force writers to fix the deal outside the freelance website and often the writer gets scammed without getting payment after completing the work. I've been experiencing this for a long time and really fed up with that..... The only advantage is that they will provide us with regular work. Still I cant work for that price, as I know a good writer can get paid folds more than that. I'm looking for someone who can pay me just above that and all I need is to get some honest clients to buy my content writing service. I heard that DP is a good place for this purpose and kinda free from frauds. I'm not so familiar with its rules, n I don't know how to find clients directly in DP. Thanks, Annie Richard
Start a thread advertising your services as a writer in the below subforum http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=102 List the rates you want and provide details about your credentials (Be specific about your skills). Ask interested buyers to contact you by PM. Hopefully you will get some clients. There is no guarantee about safety from frauds here or anywhere for that matter. Be careful as to whom you deal with.
examine their itraders and their posts. some of the writers create some articles and simply show their samples and sell these by high price.
Depends on how you want to market your skills. If you want to produce excellent works, and market to those who can pay $100 per 400 words article, you must join Constant-Content. You can price your articles at top rate. Many writers manage to work for some good clients exclusively. Constant-Content demands perfect English, with a 3-strikes-and-you-are-out rule.
Hi, $5 per 500 words article is definitely a fair price to pay for an article. You can work at website such as Textbroker.
This one confuses me somewhat - Does this rule apply to a single article or multiple articles? I've had a couple of returns from CC for being excessively promotional on my article summaries (after all, I do want them to actually sell!) and one sent back for a small typo both myself and my editing software managed to miss but I'm still very much a member and enjoying my submissions to the site. Is it a question of this rule not being strictly enforced or is it a case of the editors only using the rule on a single entry?
Nothing against Constant-Content, but I'm reasonably sure you can find clients paying upwards of $100 per article outside of the site. *wink*
It’s really sad that you got scammed. Sometimes people are not honest. If you find no luck, try to get up by yourself. Keep writing a good blog, preferably focused in a specific niche. Monetize it, and if you can’t make a good dollar with it then try selling it. Or write quality ebook – put your best to it. Then bundle it with a site, get it approved in a place like ClickBank and sell the whole thing.
