    is it? depends on how you look at it. If you pay $6 for an article, and that article
    does not pay you back at least $10, then you have already lost money, and I
    suspect that most people that buy articles loose money....unique content is great,
    but how great is it when you are paying for content for just a few hits?

    If the article paid for itself, then great, but I bet most do not...

    Man, no one is BEST or EXPERT in this world. :)

    Claiming such will impact negative on you.

    It's cheap in the sense that the typical 500 word article goes for $20 - $50 USD (sometimes, more). I don't think freelancewebaz was talking about ROI.

    Shall we say it's in the mid range? I know a lot of native writers charge around $10 for a 500-word article. DocuMaker, I would love to write for you if that is really true, the price range you indicated will make my day :)

    I never outsource my need for written content, however achieving those prices is not an impossible feat -- not even on a regular basis if you look in the right places and perform each and every time. If you haven't already, check out the major freelance sites, or even some of the sites that focus on freelance writing only. With Google's Panda on the rise, demand for quality writers should increase. There are people out there willing to pay top dollar!

    Very encouraging DocuMaker, I'm doing $7.50 per 500w but totally floored with work. Google algorithm change should work to the advantages of writers like us but sometimes, some guys prefer to be the "bad guys" in tuning their game to beat Google. We'll see how far this go but one thing is for sure, quality and unique content will never be history :)

    I guess, you may be the best writer among your siblings or else why would you charge only $6 after that high proclaimed saga of being the best but not a cheap writer. Perhaps, you might have missed a "0" after "6".

    BTW, some of the top writers cost a fortune. So, be wary of the claims that you make. It may backfire.

    You can have the best content in the world, but if you don't promote it you're going to be disappointed.

    In fact, I think Watson2 has created quite a saga already, it has led to quite a bit of hype but I guess the hype doesn't translate that well to the ROI of his words. I do agree with course575 - $1000 or more for a really good copy is commonly seen.
