Questions on hiring bloggers

I'm thinking about hiring bloggers in the future to continue on my anime news site, to keep it fresh, updated, and to make it an accurrate source. Right now I'm in the plotting phases but I've come across a problem that only members of DP would know:

What do bloggers get paid on average on a per article basis?

With the answer to this I can work out some things. FYI: This is all plotting, currently I'm hiring no one.

 

Prices for blog posts range from $5/post to $100+/post. It all depends on the writer's experience and the amount of research required for your posts.

 

So there's no average per say?

My site's an anime news site, so I have a list of resources I already use to collect stories. I'm thinking about having a few bloggers to aid me with putting out the news, and to remain on the forums to help other users.

I guess I may have to trial and error paying people. In any case I have time to spare until I start this.

we use 5 writers regularly and we pay between 1.5-3 cents/word. They all can write on pretty much anything that can be researched online.

 

Depend on the quality. You can get writer from DP from 0.5 cents to 3 cents per words. Count the cost depend on the post quantity you need and you can get idea of the cost estimation

 

The going rate for content is $0.01 per word. If you need the article submitted, pictures added to each blog post, or any additional work, look at adding on about a $1.00+ per article.

Also, this price can go up quickly depending on your requirements. For example, if you request specific topics that need tons of research, then you're probably looking at a lot more. Let me know if you need a regular blogger, my wife does this as a service for several people here on DP. She's good too!

 

Just be sure to pay your super anime nerds more

 

There's not much bloggers/writers on this niche that are willing to become guest blogger though unlike finance related niche, some bloggers/witers would even beg you to submit articles for free on your blog but with link back to their site.

For my dating blog I'm paying $4/post 450 - 600 words, including bookmarking to 20 different BM sites. Any rate below this with same scope I advice you to grab it and had whoever offering this service sign a lock-in contract

 

When I started it was $10 bucks per post. As I gained experience I would get $50 per post (average 500 words). It goes up from there. If the blogger has to do research, that's where the higher prices come in...
