    Okay People Here Goes A Valuable Question:

    HOW DO I GET PROPER CONTENT. I mean there are a lot of sites which display hundreds of pages, if not more!

    How do they do this?, are they writing it themselves, are they getting free content, ... ?

    Help a guy out here!

    ( if you want to hear what subject I'm talking about, it's Webmaster Related, http://www.webmasterspalace.com )

    Proper content is hand-written, either by your very self or bought.

    Anything that grows real fast is probably auto-generated and far from 'proper' although the scripts get cleverer every day.

    well I am asking this, because I am spending around $100 every month on new articles/tutorials and other content! would this be a great start? Requirement for the writers is, it must be unique content, so no copies!

    Indeed, many places use generic content that is given out for free on the web. But for both the reputation of the website as well as seo it is better to be unique. On that note, I am a writer so feel free to contact me if you need something written. :)

    A good way is to find some sponsors that can give you some licenses for a good product that would interest your target audience and make a contest. Or just buy content like you do. I have some writers who writes articles for my site for as low as $5 and they look really good. Just look around and you will find some good places (no, please don't PM me for an URL or author's email - it is one of my heavy guarded secrets :))

    One of the best ways to get good content is to find someone willing to write exclusively for you. For example, one of my sites has content entirely written by an old roommate, who happens to be an indie filmmaker. Since he knows the subject and his site is about movies, he can often put up two or three interesting posts in a day, and he does it for half the ad revenue (rather than an up-front payment).

    Yeah, you need people working only for you. Like I have this friend, he has people who do flash animations for free, and only for him. How lucky of him.

    Not everyone can write, I know I can't. It's better to hire a writer or use a place like Constant-Content.com. elance.com, guru.com.... these places all have talented writers.

    By the way Klaas, we had been going back and forth about supplying some Syndicated content.

    Article Stream will be fully released in the next 2 or 3 days (See my sig for a preview)

    This may supplement your unique content
