Is content outsourcing this difficult？

Millerking · 08-22-2011, 09:53 AM

I posted projects at freelance, elance, odesk, guru.

$5 each for a product review (cj.com), only US/UK writers.

Got some bidders, i get them wrote an exmaple, but none of them really did the search, they only re-write the product descriptions.

How to get a good writer？

$5 is probably your problem!

cbright · 08-22-2011, 10:31 AM

goto fiverr.com if all you want to spend is $5

How much you pay for a product review? 500 words

Hi Millerking,
Go to easyoutsource.com and you can get 5 reviews for your $5.

Good Luck

Be as detailed as you can in your bid.

Also, finding a good re-writer (or writer) is not always so easy. You need to test a few until you find the one you like.

Agree, so far i tested 11 writers from elance+guru.com, none of them is really qualified, one of them even spin the article without checking basic grammar

I think before you outsource you should choose 5 random products that you know nothing about - do the research to your standards - and write a review of each that meets your expectations.

Then look at how much time you spent doing that. Would you do it for $25 total?

Post your expectations and details of the job and let writers bid on the job. Good writers wouldn't bother to bid on a job that offers $5 for 500 words so the field of applicants you end up with won't be great.

You've had some great answers in this thread and this one hits the nail on the head, the time it takes to put in the research and put together a well thought out and engaging article is worth more than $5.

Can you get good writers for $5 a piece, yes but it is going to take a lot of wading through the bad ones until you've found someone who provides the goods.

Fiverr is a good place to start as many writers will use it as a doorway to their services and then build a relationship on the backend.

You get what you pay for.. I learned this the hard way as well..

williamrs · 08-23-2011, 12:46 PM

I have a very good writer to recommend you if you want to, but I doubt she will write the reviews for $5 each...

Anyway, just PM me if you're interested.
