    google is probably the best, just search for quality unique writers, make sure they have samples or testimonials.

    There are some very good writers on this forum ...

    I just recently got some of my original articles re-written for me by Daniel (He is a member of this forum)

    Our Pricing - Quality Unique Articles

    All articles was 60%+ unique over the original and I did not need to ask for the articles to be redone over and over. I paid, sent my articles, 2 days later I got the re-writes in perfect order...

    It looks like the prices in this forum are higher than other sites(at least a few I have seen).Every one claim his/her articles are unique and the best and it is difficult to choose one of them .

      Not only difficult...It is pretty confusing at times. A lot of writers do great work early on but in between they also deliver some crappy articles along with the good ones.

    Never count on the price alone. From my experience, if it is too cheap, the quality can be really poor. I have hired writers from many places, GetaFreelancer, DP Forum and even Warrior Forum. I now have a team of writers working for me after testing and trying dozens of writers.

    If you are looking for a writer, request for samples of past writings. If your order is huge enough, you can request for a test sample on a keyword of your choice. They will oblige you. Check their reputation as well.

    A fair pricing of a unique article 400 to 500 words is $5 to $7. Just be wary of those who can offer you at $3 or $4. Most are quite low quality.

    There's Jeewant Gupta on this forum whose services I can't recommend highly enough. He's a great writer and his command over English language is extremely good.

    Personally, I find most of my writers or people competent for any other job through forums, such as this one.

    Hi

    In my opinion you're not going to get 'the best quality article writers' for $4 or $5 an article.

    Some of the 'best' article writers will charge $40 or more for an article.

    I've bought many cheap articles only to find I have to re-write them. If you want quality then shop around. Remember that good quality can make you money.

      I had a writer when I was starting out who charged $150 an hour but guess what? His articles weren't any better than what you normally find for $5-10 bucks per article.

        In a case like that he obviously should not have been charging $150 an hour, but don't make the mistake of assuming that all writers charging more than $5-$10 per article are no better than the cheap to average priced writers.

        Anyone can put a high price tag on their work, but they may not find anyone willing to pay it. However, if a writer consistently gets paid a high price tag from many independent sources who are all satisfied with the quality of work they receive, then they are worth it.

    You won't find anyone better than Tiffany Dow and she is right here on the forum. She charges $30 (?) a page for her stuff but I know from experience it is top quality, all original work. She used to write for the some of the big names in the business and still does ghostwriting. Not sure? check out her PLR site to see the kind of work she does - just google plrminisite.com - then just contact her directly for ghostwriting.

    Just my 2 cents

    It does depend on your price range. I think it would be difficult to find a good writer at 4-5 bucks per article.

    I have gotten some $3 articles that were better than $7 - 8 articles. Always request samples and document what you want.

    I am going to try a Google search for a "sales type" article writer now. If anyone is interested, pm me. I will pay up to 50% down for the articles. (That is also a lesson I am learning the hard way.)

    You may want to try Guru.com too.. In hiring writers, you may need go through their portfolios to check if they're in the niche you're into. If you're one-step to hiring a writer, try to ask for a sample for final decision especially on large projects.

    And don't be fooled by low bids or quotes. These may be new providers who are new in the game and want to build their portfolios. I found writers bidding low but had quality produce -later you'll find them charging high prices after their credibility/reputation has been established!

    $5-$7 is the right range. Always look for writers where English is their first language.

    I have messed up paying under $5, and spent half of the day editing their work.

    And, it really depends on what you are using the writing for. On-site writing? I like to do it myself. If we're just creating relevant backlinks, not caring as much.
