    Of course your budget is $1.50 per piece written. Taking PayPal fees into consideration (which is probably 3.9% + .30c), that means the writer you're seeking is going to be writing 300 words for $1.43 per article.

    You're also asking for some magical keyword density % because you still follow the idea that it matters or Google's going to think you're special for that.

    I know you like everyone else who comes here looking for a unicorn won't listen but you're wasting what little money you're throwing at any of these writers who send you a proposal. No one who can write fluent English or anyone that gives a damn about what they're doing is going to contact you for a rate that even third world writers wouldn't work for.

    100 articles/month x 300 words = 30,000 words a month. That is a lot of words.
    100 articles/month x $1.50 = $150 a month.

    At the same rate, anyone who is that desperate or down on their luck can go to a site like Textbroker and earn a measly $1.50 per 100 words even at the 4 star level.

    30,000 words/month x $1.50/100 words = $450 a month.

    Just trying to save the little money you have budgeted out for this project. Take it however you want.

    He may be a reseller, which is against the TOS of DP I guess, and keeping the commission in between.

    I appreciate your thought and time invested here, no offense but truth is there are writers who writes in this budget so why should I increase my budget. I respect the professional writer here and their asking price, I sometime hire them when I need them.

    But when you need large number of content every month what you would do? Thanks anyway...!!!

    I think DP is such a place where you should not hit someone by a comment, if you don't like it then avoid it, why spending time by writing which you even don't like. There are lots of people knocking me for this job. This is a respected place where we respect each other.

    By the way I am not a reseller and I am a SEO specialist, I buy content for SEO purpose. Thanks and appreciating your comment though..!!

    So, you are taking "the large number of content" as an excuse and an advantage to pay authors peanuts for a 300-word article when you really should be investing reasonable rates on your projects! Man, it doesn't work like that anymore - aren't we in the 21st century? Sorry, dude, but I'm like, are you kidding me? Good luck with your sales, though.

    HI there,

    Since, I am from India, this rate for a 300 words article sounds good to me. So, let me know if you are still in need of writers.

    Thanks

    Hey,

    I completely understand your concern and I also agree to what Corey say... See at times we need to keep everything into consideration. Here your budget is limited and you still need large no. of articles to be written. In this case you off course will have to compromise on quality n that too might have to look for writers from India. To be honest you can't get everything; so you will have to sacrifice something.

    The price you are offering is something which is like disrespecting people who put in their heart and sole in writing. This price is completely at the lower end; you seriously should consider changing it.

    I am not here to complain as this is your requirement and if we are are not interested then it is better for us to ignore. But as a friendly advise i felt like sharing my opinion; so don't take it in a wrong way.

    Good Luck
    E

    As a US based content writer, best of luck finding a US based writer for those prices. Less than $0.01/word is really difficult, but best of luck

    Resellers are alllllll over the place for years and DP doesn't do anything to prevent them. Best way to scare them off is to at a minimum charge $2 per 100 words for basic writing. At least the poster who started this thread states that he's a middle man so that is to his credit. What we need is a TOS of pricing, it's the only way to make things fair and square.
