Someone who knows how use words to convert sales without making the visitor think your just trying to sell them something, but at the same time knows how to incorporate SEO keywords.

    I was thinking elance or odesk but I got the feeling Im going to get a ton of bids from people with bad grammar.

    There are plenty of good copywriters with proven track records on this forum. However, if it's cheap your after, don't expect great. It would be helpful to state your budget too - that way those who want to contact you can.

    And you can always try the sticky at the top of this page: http://www.warriorforum.com/copywrit...directory.html

    Nothing wrong with Elance and Odesk - I use them myself when work is slow. However, if its cheap you want, then I'm afraid you're not going to attract serious copywriters that can deliver your goods.

    I know several copywriters who refuse to use Elance etc because they don't want to waste their time in a bidding war. I know when I use it myself, I only ever look for high paying gigs and this approach works for me.

    Bottom line - using Elance for cheap will get you a cheap content writer who thinks they can pass for a copywriter. A good budget will ensure you get more serious bids.

    And don't forget, if your serious about making real money, a good budget means that you're getting someone who can help you genuinely make more money. Working on the cheap usually (but not always) means getting your fingers burned, since its hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.

  • odesk really is your best bet, sure you'll get some bids from people that have no idea what they are doing, but you'll find some quality writers among them as well.

    Or you could PM me and I can get one of my team (native english speakers) to give you a hand.

    Sounds like you want an article writer, not a copywriter.

    I agree with the 2 suggested sites, however check out people on this forum there's loads here and many of them are very good. Don't always focus on price - the old addage you get what you pay for is very true when you're outsourcing in my opinion

    I'll put a plug in for a fellow Warrior, Joe Marsh. He has a site Get Original Articles Written which I have used for niche site articles/blog posts. You will need to supply the keywords and they do the rest.

    • So, this is the logic: "I want to be rich and, I don't want to spend any money." Let's see... How often has that worked in history?

      And, since when is a freakin' article-writer a "copywriter". That's bull****. Especially for all the real copywriters on warrior who have busted their ass to be able to give their clients true value.

          Good for you. As you can see, words and terminology do matter around here.

          Once you get some work under your belt, you'll see that being paid far less than your true worth is a very real issue for us professional writers who have to feed our families on what our talent brings in.

    No offense, guys, but although I agree that generally when outsourcing you have to pay more to get better results, and copywriting is something you generally do NOT want to try to scrimp on...sometimes you can find someone who is both good AND charges less for whatever reason, perhaps because of their geographical location or personal interest in the project or topic.

    This is not to say that very good copywriters should not be paid what they are worth, but knee-jerk reactions like saying the poster wants to get rich without spending money is a premature conclusion.

    There are many reliable and good places on internet for outsourcing the professional writers. Freelancer, odesk, elance, vWorker are the best among these sites. You can get plenty of good writers there in reasonable prices. You will have to check the profile and history and past experience of the writer before selecting a good writer.
