Here is an exercpt from a Article I paid for from a Article Writing Company..

36 replies
I copied and Pasted it here. It is for my Acne Blog. I won't reveal the Company !! The first one is quite humorous so enjoy !

"Mostly men have oily skin. Oil plus dirt will result to acne. You have to wash your face always and you don't want to keep it oily because some people might want to cook an egg onto your face. You have to use facial wash products that are made for oily skins."

Another copied and pasted excerpt :
"I know. One frustrating thing that could happen in your life is having acnes all over your face.
This is natural though in puberty age but the fact that you want to get rid of those - who don't want to - means that those acnes are a disaster. So, how to get rid of acne? Sometimes, people who have suffered from these are the ones who know what exactly to do. "How to get rid of acne?" is the question people always ask from their dermatologists but instead was given only medications that won't work but rather it will make worse, though not always. Sometimes I already asked myself "how to get rid of my acne?" when I'm still in puberty age. Though I still have some but it's not really a problem anymore. "



This was just the tip of the iceberg. There were more tons of blatant, grammatical errors and it was obvious this person did not have a grasp of the English Langauge.

Before, this Article Wrting Company delivered pretty good.


I guess you get what you pay for. Now back to some rewriting !!

      Load it up and blast it out and use it for link juice back to a site you actually want to rank for. Won't get you any traffic, but it will get you a few high PR rank links back to site that will get you some money

    The second part doesn't even make sense; the person just continually repeats how acne is bad, you don't want it but get it in puberty...

    What a joke... I think you'd be doing everyone a service by giving the company's name away so no one else gets screwed.

        hehehehe............Yeah, I actually did pay for it. But the funny thing is I had 20 other Niche Articles from this Company written for me in this batch ( Outside the Acne Niche Articles )and they were all satisfactory work. Not 'Authority Blog' type of work but nonetheless satisfactory !! And I am a pretty decent Writer so I am not too bummed.

        But honestly just a little miffed by the quality of work for these Acne Articles. It is unbelievable to me how such a inept Writer could fall through the cracks of an otherwise fairly reputable Article Company !

    That was funny. But, the truth of the matter is you paid for a $3 article and you got a $3 article. If you paid $10 you would of received a $10 article, but you didn't.

      The Truth of the matter is I didnt pay $3 an Article like you just so naively assumed for some reason unbeknown to me. And actually ,as I have said, 20 out of the 25 Articles were satisfactory work.

      Contrary to what you just said , it was less than $3 an Article I paid!!

      And being a Writer myself those 20 out of 25 Articles were ACTUALLY better than some of the $10 Articles I have come across !!

      My suggestion to you next time is to not make assumptions on what you THINK is the TRUTH !!

      It will serve you better in the future.

      I disagree. He didn't get a $3 article; he got $3 worth of text. If those excerpts are any indication, what he received cannot be described as an article. Not a $3 article, not a $1 article, not even a free article. It's not an article at all. It's text. Might as well have used "Lorem ipsum" and swapped out "ipsum" for his keyword phrase.

        If you were only willing to pay a $1 or $2s then I'm afraid to say you got exactly what you paid for. If not, then I feel for you.

        Sure if the article writing service is a reputable one, they would have proofreaders in place to check articles before they are returned to the client? The absence of proofreaders alone tells me the site you use is at best a money making scam.

        Oh well.... you live and learn hey.

    Here you go. I rewrote the the portions you posted. If you like it, it's yours. If not, let me know and I'll use it :-)

    Acne, pimples, zits -- it doesn't matter what you call them; they're big, they're red, they're ugly and they're coming to your face soon. And that means you're going to be wanting to know: How to get rid of acne?

    What is it with acne anyway? There must be like an acne fairy or something who sits around waiting for you to get a job interview, or a wedding invite, or something else so she can wave her wand and put a big red one right on your nose.

    As much as we'd all like to blame our acne problems on someone else, we really have only our skin and our hygiene habits to blame. Here's why:

    Most men have naturally oily skin. Mix oil and dirt together and you have the perfect recipe for acne.

    You see, when dirt blocks the pores it traps the skin's oil inside. Now here's the "eeew" part...

    Imagine frying some food and then leaving the oil outside in the sunlight for a few days. Sure enough, that oil is going to go rancid and get pretty nasty looking.

    So you're probably not frying food on your face, but that oil trapped inside your pores isn't getting fresher as the days go by, you can bet on that.

    As the oil starts to go bad it causes an infection. The body rushes white blood cells to the scene of the crime and the battle between good and evil takes place right on the tip of your nose, or your chin, or somewhere else that can't easily be hidden from the public.

    A big red pimple forms and, if you're really unlucky, it gets a nasty white tip that makes you stand out from the crowd even more.

    By then you're looking for a miracle acne cure, right? But before we talk about how to get rid of acne using acne creams and other ways to combat your newly-born zits, let's take a look at some tried and true acne prevention tips.

      If you ask me, I wouldn't call it a company. It's a website with a few people trying to make some bucks. Damn, I write for an article writing outfit and believe me, if you're not up to scratch you're out. Also, as I've mentioned previously, all articles have to be approved by the proofreaders before clients even get to see them. My only gripe, now that I'm an affiliate for the outfit I write for, is that I feel they should allow potential clients to see the site, rather than only a landing page. Having said that, they are mega successful so maybe it's just me barking up the wrong tree.

      Oh well, at least they keep me in work, and I make enough to pay the bills (only just)
