So here is a scenario..
Youre trying to build a site, with little spare time.
You buy a Fiverr gig to get some articles written.
When you get the articles, you realise that theyre of average quality, not completely useless, but only about 50% of what you'd expect.

Do you.... use those articles to beef up your blog/site?
or cut your losses and trash the articles, losing money, and still have no EXTRA content?

Whats your thoughts?

    I think is a great strategy, the warrior forum itself is following it and look at their great results:



    Allow a bunch of people to post rubish content on the site, all this duplicated content with no aded value and you will make a killing!!!

      Links in signature will not help your SEO. Not on this site, and not on any other forum.
      Who told me this? An ex Google web spam engineer.

      What's your excuse?

        Well yes and no, here we would have to had a debate about the info anout Alexa, but that will definitely create a topic that needs to be evaluated with real answers.... that not many people are willling to have here.

        On the other hand, have you seen how many people are constantly asking about Alexa influencing the ranks??? and the answers they get are even insaner!!!!

        I am just hitting a dead horse

    Fiver is not the best place to get quality articles, I would recommend not using those articles and use iwriter.com to get 100% quality content.

      Have you actually tried to work with iwriter? That site is about as hopeless as Fiverr. Many of the supposed writers have no idea about the thing they're writing about, and they're basically gobbling all the articles they can, and smashing something together in the hope that it gets accepted.

      BTW, I think "craprticle" (from the title) is quite catchy. Maybe even "crapticle".

    Anyone that thinks they should receive quality from fiverr is a disillusioned halfwit.
