I agree that you should outsource your writing. But since you are not good in English, make sure your writer is. Sometimes if you don't know the language very well yourself, you might mistake something for a good article when it's really full of grammar and sentence structure errors. I recently tried to explain this to a client of mine who had some pretty bad content on his site but didn't realize it since his English was even worse. English is not my first language either, but even I could see it. He still insisted on using this writer because of the cheap price though

I would never buy form a site full of mistakes.

How about some FREE unique handwritten articles for your website, blog, SEO, guest posts, etc?

Outsource the work!

I would check the reputation of a company b4 outsourcing through them.

You may also have someone your close to on the forum who speaks good english or someone by you check the site for you.

Good Luck

Thanks

Consider writing a site in your own language?

Sometimes I worry about how the world's non-English speaking population are meant to use the internet since everyone here seems to think all sites should be written in English.

I don't know where you live or what your first language is, but your fellow country people might appreciate a site written in their own language so that they can understand it.

Thanks

I wish it was that simple...

You can have a site in any language, I agree - even I have a blog in Hungarian where my readers, according to them, enjoy my writings (remember, I used to be a journalist back in Europe). However, that is purely hobby because I have never made one cent with that site.

You see, when considering a market in another language there are a lot of things that we here, in the "English-speaking universe", take for granted:
- the size of the market (compare the 10 million Hungarians, max 14M all over the world and the estimated 495 millions or more of native and secondary speakers of English...)
- internet connection (what % of that population is internet user)
- cultural factors: do they ever buy anything online; do they trust online info-products etc.

I think your word makes sense. The English world is the largest market and the most likely to accept online products.

I would say outsource is probably your best bet or partner with someone who has the content, I have a friend who did that and made tons of money (he did the marketing part).

Seems everyone agree to outsource the work. So any reliable gig would you recommend?

Thanks

WriterAccess.com has good writers who will actually do some research for articles, but they aren't the cheapest writers.

Another REALLY good solution that I've done a fair amount is to hire college students and graduate students who are studying in your niche. For example, if you publish a fitness site, contact a kinesiology grad department at a university (the careers department) and ask them if you could post an ad for writers. Every university I've contacted send out emails to all the students for free. I've hired incredibly talented people who write very well researched articles.

Use the Warriors for hire section in this forum. There are writers like myself and others who advertise because we know what we are doing and DO speak and write good quality English. Generally you know you will get good work from people here. The bidding sites are more of a lucky dip.
