    Will write articles at $0.04 / word

    Have previously written articles mostly on topics related to real estate, finance, mortgage and credit. However, can write on any general topic. You may view some of the articles I've written out here http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Sameer_Panjwani

    I think that may be considered kind of expensive around here with 300 word articles going for around $4-$8.

    I completely understand. I tried bidding on a bunch of projects on elance, or something like that, and I couldn't come close to the prices coming from India and other places around the world.

    After you deal with a few people overseas, you are happy to pay more to someone in the US (sometimes). No Communication barriers. I've found a good programmer in Romania who does all my DB work now and she is awesome. I have still yet to find a good person who can redesign one of my commerce sites.

    I checked on elance and accepted a winner. First mock up sucked - I told them when I did and didn't like. Second mock up came. It was the same as the first with a few color differences. I never wrote back LOL

    One of my commerce sites has a 4 year design on it and I want it redone. I like how it looks now, just want something less 20th century :p. Not reinventing the wheel, since it converts well, just an update. I just need the html template so I know how the page is laid out. I have to do the installation, since its a yahoo store and I doubt anyone here knows how to work within that system. PM me if you're interested :)

    If you have gardening experience, I need some gardening ones done. Even if you don't. If you are a good writer. How to grow stuff (various herbs, etc) - probably a little more research as I'd like soil PH, watering schedules etc.

    I thought you were about to ask him to do some gardening for you.

    I've been having a look at the prices quoted for articles recently and I'm astonished at how cheaply they are being written for. You'll probably struggle to get much work at £0.04 per word. The only way I can see a lot of money to be made from writing articles is to sell the same article over and over... maybe changing a few words here and there.

    I may need some football articles soon but I couldn't afford to pay £5 a paragraph.

    PS From what I can see your articles are well written. Very nice :)

    I'm used to paying more than 0.04/word right now (works out to like 20 bucks on a 500 word article), but I figure everyone is worth a shot. If something is well written, a lower price isn't a bad thing. I've seen higher priced articles that really sucked. Writing is not one of those things that price guarantees best quality.

    I agree. Sometimes the style of a lower priced writer might be exactly what you want for your site and price very rarely implies anything about the quality. I would be more interested in viewing an article writers previous work and finding out how long they had been article writing.

    I get lots of stuff from constant-content.com . I have writers, that I know their articles will be good. Some are high priced, some are low. I have had articles that I just hated, but its soo hard to tell someone - man that sucked. LOL

    lol I'm sure they get the point when you dont get back to them.

    Sometimes it's kind to be cruel. If they dont know that they've written a rubbish article how would they ever get better?
