I can't figure out why everyone buys so many articles in Buy, Trade, and Sell. Is it usually just for Blogs that they don't feel like writing or their sites? I'm trying to think on how they profit on them but can't.
Well, I am still confused about this. There are lots of people go for fresh articles, and on the flip side buy people buy used articles. As far as my knowledge whether the people use those articles to increase traffic and put content or may be they hire writers to rewrite the content to make it fresh. Myself wish to know the exact answer. Nice question thanks
It generally helps them to attract traffic to their site and so normal people wants traffic to their site only and so they buy unique articles!
I'm new to digital point so I don't know exactly what you meanas far as Buy Trade Sell, but I do pay for articles to be written quite often (on freelance sites like GAF) and actually plan on doing it even more now that I have more money available for investing in my online businesses. The main reason I have articles written for me is so I can submit them to article submit sites (ISnare & EZineArticles in particular) with links back to my sites. This is a link building technique that is effective & also totally white hat. I also gain some traffic from it. I also sometimes put an article I've had written for me on my own sites. There's only so much content I can create myself ... and with the things I do - fresh (unique) content is extremely important. I think it is for almost anyones online biz.
Okay, what Zibblu said makes sense. I can see why people don't really care what the article is written about as long as its in a certain genre so people can build article links to their site. I thought there was just some guy buying thousands of articles for big $$$...I just wanted a piece of it
Sweetcheeks - for the original articles I have written for me I provide the title/topic. This way I get an article directly related to my websites theme. I general pay $5 to $10 per 500+ word article to freelancers on GAF. It's really a bit of a risk because some of the writers are pretty bad and I can end up paying for some crappy poorly written articles. But some are good writers that produce interesting content... I hire them again.
Well I buy services for some things that I figure I could probably do on my own. Primarily because there may be something else I need to be doing or my time would be better invested elsewhere.
most of its for submitting to article directories. I don't mind doing it, in fact I sell a lot of articles that way, but unlike a lot of writers out there, I won't do it for pennies. I've been on GAF and find that many of the jobs are wanting people to write for $1.50 or less an article - and that's not worth my time (everything I do is original, I don't spin or rewrite). I can't compete with someone overseas who is willing to write 50 articles in a day (my max is usually 10 if you want quality work) and charge $20 for all 50! I've had a lot of people on here ask me to write for them (for whatever purpose - blog, directories, websites, whatever) and once I quote a price don't hear from them again. On the other hand, I've gotten some really good clients from here. As a writer you have to stand your ground and pick and choose. I'm fortunate that I have the ability to pick and choose and decline subjects or projects that I either just don't want to do, or they don't want to work for my price...
Hi musicalzoo... I may want to work with you in the future - I have gone the cheap articles from India route and... well you get what you pay for. I've found it's sometimes worth paying more for more quality when it comes to articles. I recently paid someone on GAF $10/article ... so I'm moving my aim upwards looking for better quality.
What do you primarily use the internet for ? Information, right ? A well written article will often see people coming back again, as well as them recommending other people to visit the site.
you can not make profit from it but you save your time. and another reason is not all people here are native speaker so they have a limited English knowledge and can not write a good article. hire an article writer will solve their problems.
