Is a contest the right way to get this done?
The way I see it, if I commission, say 50 articles at 20$ a piece chances are I will get some decent content written, although I will have to do it in tranches to accomodate the cost.
If instead I run a contest in which i give higher prices for the top ones what I get is a number of people working really hard at getting the best article/post/tutorial they can for the chance of a higher price.
What are your thought on this? Is it acceptable? How would you structure such a contest?
