Hey fellow warriors,

I've been searching around for a little bit now trying to find a writer that can write up keyword optimized, product comparison content for a website I am about to launch. Just like to get everyone's personal opinions or recommendations that could help point me in the right direction. Thanks in advance

Dan

    Hi Dan,

    Few things to note when hiring a new writer:

    Firstly, always get a sample of their writing before you hire them.

    Secondly, for your first batch of articles, it's best to set the terms of your payment to after successful delivery only. That way you're protected.

    Finally, be very clear on what you want. e.g. 400+ words, keyword in title, first sentence, last paragraph and 1-2% keyword density, headlines, call to action etc.

    Hope that helps!

      Wouldn't that weed out all the good writers and leave all the desperate?

      I mean... Would any quality writer deliver - say - ten articles, not knowing whether or not he/she will be paid?

        Chances are yes. With something like content, you can't just "return" it if you don't like it - so very, very few writers are going to be willing to do work without getting paid upfront. Unfortunately, there are too many scammers out there who want something for free - so they are more than willing to tell you they don't like the content you've given them, then post it all over the web.

        That being said, though, if you find a professional writer, see a couple of samples, and get all of your questions answered before you place an order, paying them upfront shouldn't make you uncomfortable. If it does, you should probably keep looking.

    Warrior for hire can give a writer Dan. But before you hire, please give him/her some test like a sample article and much better to have an interview. You can tell a good writer by applying these methods.

    You can try out warrior forum. If not, try checking out odesk, elance, guru and freelancer. There are a lot of talented experts there willing to write for you. Like Thadbong said "ask for a sample first". That's something you should not overlook. You need to make sure the writer you're hiring is qualified and up for it.
