    ***Need quality automotive and insurance articles***
    Hi there...I need very talented plus fast articles writer. I just pick 1-2 writers who can deliver the best rate and can guarantee me very fast work. I'm looking for high quality (100% unique and high quality English!!!) writers for those of my blogs! This is for long term business mate.



    I'll take every month about 20-30 articles for 300-500 words per article that relate to this niche:


    1) Automotive
    2) all insurance types, health, live, automotive


    Please send PM your details as below:

    1) Your rate for 300-500 words
    2) Capability of time to write for 20-30 articles
    3) What's your expertise niche

    This is not the right spot for this. You need to post it in the BST section....look down and find Services then Content Creation.

    That has got to be the all-time dumbest statement.

    And even on a board like this, that surprised the shit out of even me.

    "High rate,"?

    Dumbass.

    Well some people are looking to get something for nothing. I see this a lot on DP. Hopefully that can change soon. What we need to do is get the writers to realize that they are worth more. It is like 2 gas stations next to each other competing for business. One drops their price, so all the neighboring stations drop. We as writers need to stick together and demand better. It is time form the DP Union of writers then we can start to get paid what we are worth.

    Good writers who know how to find good-paying sources don't worry about it.

    Rarely are message boards one of those sources.

    We also know that the ones who pay so little for articles will eventually have to pay more if they ever hope to have quality articles that their readers like so much, they come back, time after time.

    The owners of SitePoint.com, one of those rare boards, found that out.

    Besides the fact that this is the wrong forum, and you are thread jacking, we also do not work for beer money on this forum, so kindly take your "offer" elsewhere.

    You are writing articles for $5, so, uh, perhaps YOU should take your "beer money" BS elsewhere?


    Sorry, gvannorman, I didn't make myself clear. The owners of SitePoint buy articles for their content pages, and they have found out that it is better to pay out more to get better articles.

    Allow me to set you straight once more, because apparently besides unable to read you are also unable to do math it seems, add to this fact that you also don't grasp most of whats posted here, and you pretty much start to become the poster child for the deaf, dumb and blind association .

    Articles for $ 5 per how many words was it? Oh right that was 500. The thread jacker was referring to this as high rates remember? So he must be offering what I consider to be beer money.

    Besides this fact, and the fact that I do take on the occasional $ 5 per 500 job, I also do much higher priced work.

    Speaking of work, how profitable is yours? Is http://www.perryrose.ca/ bringing in the beer money? If so you may want to consider a real design, one with links that actually work when clicked even :)

    For some writers out there $5 articles are helping them make pretty good money. Even if they are working longer hours they some members here are making in excess of $100 a day. If you can get paid more, then you are able to make more.

    I guess this really depends on where you live. Because I can understand if your residing in Los Angeles or New York City. Then you are going to have to earn $200 or $300 minimum each day to live comfortable. Here where I live, the average income is about $9 per hour. This make it less than $100 a day.

    This is the true value of the article. When you can prove that it will make "x" amount of dollars you can charge a small percentage of "x". The article will then be priced reasonably.

    What does a $5 article look like, anyway, little noob? I would imagine like warmed-over shit.

    Looks a little like your site only with more style, and proper formatting :)

    Only for such a job I would charge $ 2.50 because it would not take longer then 5 minutes.

    No good comments or content were ever slobbered out of a beer. Like your picture at perryrose.ca. My, your head looks so newly waxed with mosquito juice, that it gleams out the rest of the site like moonbeams. Nice job, looks almost like Kraven2 but without the improved nose job. Are those links the only thing not functioning, you need to get fixed.

    The OP has to look at the class of clientele, there are good suggestions to hire out your services to a professional writing service. How can you ever expect to make a living offering low rates to people that run a part-time internet business?

    If you want full time pay work with professionals. But remember that professionals only hire fellow professionals.
