Ultimate BEST Place to Buy Articles?

by The Oilman
32 replies
Hey guys

I am sorry for this rather basic question.

But I was wondering what the hottest sites are for article writing / content creation?

I did some searching on here but the post seemed a bit dated.

Is there any places that rate the best sources?

    I like iWriter from a perspective of getting articles written as you get to set a budget and only pay for the article if you are happy with the quality.

    Yes,you can buy plr articles from any websites selling them. These are articles that others may also buy and so will not be unique, However, many people use them for various purposes such as list building. You can rewrite them just a little bit to make them different to what others have if you want to. Many websites sell such articles in packs of 5 for say $5-$6 so they are quite affordable. And while you often hear the term "PLR crap" there are many people who are very good writers of plr articles. These people are native English writers who really know their job as far as writing goes. Some even use special keywords in their articles to give buyers the best results possible.

    We use iWriter HEAVILY for our low-end articles. For better, higher-end content writers take a look at TextBroker. We've had some good content delivered from them. You can also take a look at oDesk for writers although it's more of a PITA to find the right writers for your needs there, IMO.

    Though I have looked everywhere and agree with above contributors, the best providers are here on our very own amazing Warrior Forum. Just do an advanced search for content providers here and compare samples and prices. Odesk and fiverr would be the 2nd best on a tie! 3rd would be freelancer dot com.

    It depends what you want your content for?

    PLR articles can be rewritten quickly and you can do that yourself or find someone to do it for you and then you still have original content for a very cheap price and without spending ages on research.

    You can also re-use the content for emails, newsletters, reports and many other marketing activities.

    Honestly, it depends what you're after and what your budget is. If you're after some absolutely top range stuff there are a couple of guys on here who will give you really, really well written pieces, but they do have the price to go with them.

    What is it you're actually after?

    Warrior Forum is definitely the best source of high quality article writers when it comes to authority building website content. I myself am a new member and looking to establish a reputation. Fingers crossed !!

    As for places like odesk and elance I would suggest using them only if you have the time to sort through millions of applications just to find that a particular writer is "probably" a better choice. I would advice o keep this a quality drive search rather than a price driven one.

    Freelancer is not at all recommended. The quality is no good and there are quite a few contractors impersonating themselves as natives.

    I hope you found the answer you were looking for.

    Thanks

    Well, are you looking for high volume, low quality content or high quality content?

    If you are looking for low quality content that's cheap, sites like iWriter, Textbroker, etc. are a good option. If you are looking for higher quality content, you probably want to look for a service that has only native English speaking writers.

      Why would you want low quality? It's basically worthless and may actually do you more harm than good in the long run. Quality is what pays you back. A $5 article is going to get you $5 worth of instant results followed by $5 worth of problems. A properly crafted, well thought out blog is going to get you all the long term results you could want.

        Sorry, but this is not good advice. Classifying all $5 articles as low quality is like saying all internet marketers have no clue what they're doing (simply because some don't). Every writer is different. And every writer has to start somewhere... even the REALLY good ones. Just because you're a great writer, doesn't mean you can charge $50 right out of the gate. Those people have to charge at the $5 level just like the majority that start writing online.

        If you want to find several really great writers that don't yet have a million clients (and would likely work, longterm, for you), there is no better way than finding the "good" $5 writers, because they're new.

        To summarize,

        1. There are some bad $5 writers
        2. There are some REALLY good $5 writers

        With iWriter, you can decline the bad ones, and have a good ones re-write it.

          I disagree. I wrote one article for low cost and then never again. I didn't have a large portfolio of online work because I had to start somewhere. Starting at $5 for a writer is poor advice because they're going to find themselves stuck: clients looking for $5 articles will go away and they need to find new ones anyway. If you're price point is higher, then they'll keep coming back. When I raised my prices, my clients didn't say anything, they just sent the next order...

          Of course, not ALL $5 articles are going to be poor, but a tiny enough amount are that I think the generalism holds true. Finding one is going to cost you a lot more in time as well. Why spend all that money looking for a decent writer at that price point if you can look at the writing of a higher priced writer and know you're getting quality.

          You never HAVE to charge an amount less than the poverty line in every English speaking country. Would you really pay someone $5 an hour? Is that fair? No. So those are generally not going to be native speakers and their grasp of the language is not going to be of the highest standard: there will be grammar mistakes too. Sure, if you're looking for a subject matter expert... but they also know what they're worth and charge accordingly.

          What do you expect to get from this $5 article?

            Of course. Not everyone agrees on everything. Especially on the Warrior forum. lol...

            I think most people can write far more than 1 good article in an hour. I can write 3-4 in an hour... which would equate to about 20 bucks an hour. A bit higher than the $5/hour you mentioned.

            I'm not here to argue. We have plenty of writers on iWriter. Close to 50,000 writers now. But what I am saying is that there are plenty of really good writers that write at the $5/article level, and I have more than enough proof to back this up. Classifying all $5 writers as the same is stereotyping. People are people and they're all different.

              It depends on what you get from an article...

              If you can write 3-4 well researched, grammatically correct articles that read really well, deliver a message and encourage your reader to come back, without editing, in an hour then I bow down to you as a writing god.

          Why not? Of course you can! This blinkered view that writers have to start at the bottom, earning a pittance, and work their way up, is so wrong, and must have held back dozens of good writers.

          If you're a good writer, charge what you're worth from day 1. The alternative is to brand yourself as a cheap writer forever.

      I like to use Odesk, it's where I outsource for all my content creation these days. If your looking for quality content at discount prices then one technique you can try using is by targeting writers who have just signed up to Odesk, make this clear in your ad title, example- 'Job for new writers on Odesk seeking feedback, etc etc...' then in your actual ad make the feedback incentive clear there as well.

      Lots of times these contractors are experienced writers just looking to prove themselves and get that first time feedback and are often willing to write at discount on your terms. Make sure you come through and spend some time writing them good feedback for their efforts, that's the only way this works

        iWriter is a solid service and you can choose your quality level of article based on the price you pay. At any level you can accept or reject the article if it meets or fails to meet your needs and expectations.

        There are good article writers here on this forum as well.

        But if you want an alternative that no one here has yet mentioned, I would suggest the following. Get a little creative. Call on some U.S. based universities and asked to speak to a job counselor. Tell them you are a web publisher and you are looking for a part time student to write for you on a regular basis. Tell them that you could pay $8 - $15 an hour depending on the speed and quality of the writer.

        Some of these students are very bright, obviously native English speakers and would love to toss in the McDonalds hat and minimum wage job and trade it for one they can do out of their dorm or at their favorite coffee shop and do anytime of day or night they choose.

        If you are in the U.S. or other English speaking countries, you can often find community boards that allow you to post information up. Make a flyer with your phone number or email address and post these all over town announcing that you are a web publisher looking for work at home moms and dads looking to make $8 - $15 an hour from home writing for you part time.

        If you take the time to do some of these things you can find some very good writers that will write for you anytime you want and for as long as you treat them reasonably. It will take some effort, but if you are in this business to stay, putting in the effort will make all the difference in the long run.

        iWriter and the Warrior forum are places you can find and build relationships with good writers. But also using the alternative methods mentioned above can allow you to build relationships with high quality native speakers. In the process, you may even help them to discover the internet as a way earn money. Win win is always gooood.

        Good luck.
