I am professionally interested in running a poll here in DP to determine which is the most popular content providing company in the Internet. To which company do you refer to when you need a large amount of writing done? Thank you in advance for your help.
To stay on topic, I write my own articles. However - unless Associated Content has changed - they are NOT a content provider. You are not able to purchase articles from AC or use them on your own websites. Someone correct me if I am wrong and this has changed since my brief experience with them long ago. However if the site's mechanics remain the same, Associated Content does not provide content for webmasters to use. It's a place for writers to submit articles and get paid for them.
looks like not many people are using the article directories these days, they either hire someone or write them themselves!
I wrote my own articles for a while, but I ran out of Ideas. So I use article hulk and a couple freelance writters that do a good job.
Nearly always my own effort. The exceptions were a few articles from a freelance who desperately needed some cash and deserved helping out.
