How do I find a good writer for...

10 replies
I just need 150 word posts for a popular link building network but I don't just want them to do the writing I want to also be able to give someone selective access to my account so that they can post the posts as well. I've only used Odesk which is great for some things, but for writers finding good English speakers/writers can be difficult.

Any suggestions for where to go?

    Check out the Warriors for Hire section of the forum or you could always place an ad in the Looking to Hire section of the forum.

    There are many talented English speaking writers on this forum...you just need to look around a bit.

      I have always loved elance because the system is reliable there and you can choose a writer with many past projects and good reviews.

      If you wan't something much cheaper, try asiaparttime.com. The writers there are mostly from south east asia and there are many really really good writers there. The thing is you just need to search through the right one.

    Yes, that's a whole different ball-game, isn't it?

    Whatever you do, I'd stay away from anyone you don't know at any sites like the ones mentioned above.

    I think you'll find a suitably trustworthy Warrior with a reputation to protect, by looking through the "for hire" folder, and/or just by asking people you know here for recommendations?

    I'm making some assumptions here, so if I'm wrong, I apologize. I see a bit of a disconnect in your request. You see, this

    implies you're looking for cheap content, and probably want to pay peanuts for it. On the other hand, this

    suggests you're looking for someone trustworthy and reliable.


    I'm not saying you won't be able to find a balance between the two, but I don't think it's going to be easy. As Ms. Smith said, I'd be really careful about giving account info to inexpensive labor.

    If you're willing to pay a little more and hire a professional, I'm sure you can find someone trustworthy with ease. If you're seeking cheap labor, it's going to be difficult--not impossible though.

    Maybe try looking around the the work at home mom scene. Many of those women are underpaid and are typically a very warm hearted bunch. You just might be able to find the balance you're looking for there.

    The advantage to shopping through the Warriors for Hire section include:

    You can read feedback in their thread.
    You can see how long they have been actively promoting on the Warrior Forum.
    You can check their posts and see how effectively they communicate.
    You can ask for references of other Warriors.


    The Warrior Forum is a community. Which gives you access to better feedback, checks and balances, and more confidence than many other outsourcing venues.

    Just my two cents worth....
