Questions about content

I'm creating a lot of lead gen sites & wanted to ask what do you guys see as a viable source of content for your sites?

I'm trying to get original content for a lot of sites & avoid spun content.

Here is what I'm finding. Content written by non-native speakers always has bad grammar. It's cheaper, but flows awfully. Content by natives is more expensive & still needs to be proofread for errors.

Since they are lead gen sites, I still want the content to be decently readable. Otherwise, the people will not want to call or email.

What do you guys do for content when you are trying to create a lot of sites?

    A lot of stuff when it comes to building sites can be done on the cheap, however content is one area that you can't scrimp.

    It is so important to the success of any site, both on site content as well as anything that you plan to use for outreach.

    I have found that the lowest fee you can pay for something that is good enough for a successful site is around £30 per 1000 words, if somebody is charging that price then the content is usually excellent and error free.

    So the 2 options you have:
    1) create the content yourself
    2) pay good money for something excellent

    It's also really important to mention that content for lead gen sites is even more specialised and conversions are essential, so you might have to pay a little more.

    I actually write most of my content personally. That way I know it's unique and of good quality.. You need to find a good provider and then stick with them. You can use sites like Fiverr/SEOClerks but look over the reviews and stuff first. Message the people and ask them to send you links to some samples..etc.

    There are many good content writers that offer reasonable price for their works. You are right that native writers do charge high rates but did you know that non-natives are good too? At usually half the price. The trick is to find good non-native writers and then stick with them. I know a lot of non-native writers who write decent articles at $2 per 100 words. They are professionals who formed a small group and then freelance as writers.

    For good quality content, I'd say do not take the cheap alternative. Content is king for a reason. So, either write it yourself or hire someone who offers a good service. They don't have to be native speakers, there are plenty of non-native English speakers who are also able to write good content, with no spelling or grammar errors, you just need to find them.

    I also agree with all. Either take ideas from other websites and write unique content yourself or hire an expert who can deliver you high quality content.

    Simply make sure that the keywords are not over added in the your content and use proper <h1> <h2> etc tags to make it user friendly and at last check for plagiarism

    They always say that "Content is King" but failed to prove it.
    Creating content is not just writing a piece of story but its all about users intent.
