Buying Website Content ?

11 replies
Hello friends
has anyone bought any article/ content for his/her website before ? or hiring someone on fiverr or any freelancer website?

Should someone write an original content by himself? What if person has a poor English but he has a big experience in a few niches ?

Does hiring a freelancer to write a content for a website works well ?

Please any advice i'll be thankful

    Yunarel, I've not bought content but I do freelance. The best freelance writers are out there but are probably not offering $5 for their services

    You'll find the best content writers by buying advertising on a site like Pro Blogger, or by Googling for freelance writers, or for ghostwriters.

    Your call, but wow will doors open for you if you learn how to write, how to tell a story, and how to bump up your ad copy game. I'm biased though because I love writing

    All the best,

    Hi yunarel

    I believe your best bet is to write content yourself. If you have great value to add and are experienced in your niche, readers will not mind the odd spelling mistake or grammatical error.

    Staying authentic and true is also very important to having success online.

    On the other hand, if you are not great at writing in English, that can affect your credibility and make your site look very unprofessional.

    The problem is that it will be very expensive for you to create a website full of content that is written by freelance writers. Even if you get those writers from Fiverr, it may be difficult to see a return on your investment.

    These days, I see there is more value in crafting long, valuable content that gets shared around. You don't need pages and pages of articles, just some really valuable, well crafted pieces.


    Maybe you should concentrate on writing these type of articles yourself. You can do it less regularly and maybe employ a cheap freelancer to proofread and edit it. That might be a cheaper and more effective option for you.

    Also, if writing is not your thing, consider creating other forms of content such as video or infographics.

    Check out iwriter.com they have good writers for any price range. You set the amount of words, leave of writer 3 to 5 star and if you want to focus on keywords they will make this happen as well. Most the time I spend between 10 to 15 dollars per article. Check it out.

    I've written most of my content because that's what I love to do, but I've also purchased content too for various projects. It does cost more to get professionally written content, but I have found a few really good writers on Fiverr.

      It can work well. But it can also work badly.

      I think one of the commonest problems is that the people most in need of buying content, because of their own limited English language skills, also tend to be those least able to assess the merits and value of the content they're buying, and therefore what benefits they're realistically likely to accrue from publishing/using it.

      It's usually much easier to outsource things you are able to do yourself, than things you're not able to do.

        Thank you Alexa

        I have bought articles here on the WF - I am not a native speaker, so I rely on others.

        Had some good articles and some lesser ones. But an option might be ''guest posts'' to help you?
