    Depends what you want...

    Seems like you'll be needing a lot of research done, so I'd imagine a per hour rate. Then, you can choose whether you want to just get some traffic or whether you want targeted traffic.

    For the latter, it'd be $30/hour+

    You'd have to provide the products that needed reviewing, of course. Or hire writers who already had them/had used them.

    The value of a writer is equal to the value of what he or she writes. It has nothing to do with the time to do the writing.

    I price my writing on the basis of what I think the work is worth.

    Nothing else matters.

    Check out Fiverr and look at different sellers' feedback and ratings. That's a better quality indicator than cost.

    Hope this helps.

      All you can find in fiverr are positive ratings. There is no such thing as long comments from customers indicating their satisfaction in details. Fiverr is not a good place to find quality writers.

    Certainly for a good quality writer your looking at $20+ to start with. Someone of a very high standard would be at least $30+ per hour.

    Hope that helps!

      Robert, you'd be surprised but there are a huge selection of writers who charge upwards of $80-$100 an hour. And they're completely fully booked, generally.

    I think the fair rate depends not so much on topics but on the quality you want to get. I tend to offer $10 per 500-600 word articles and I get high quality copywriters.

      content writers, surely.

      You'll never get a copywriter for 10 times that
