    It all really depends what type of writer your hire. Agencies and websites typically charge more than a freelance writer.

    Lately I have been paying my foreign writers $4 per 500 words and my english writers $5 per 500 words.

    It depends on if you want quantity or quality, always. At a very minimum, you should pay $10/500 words for "good" quality in the US, and I imagine that it's the same in other languages. Just pay something similar. Now, realize that $10/500 is the absolute minimum. If you pay below that, you are going to get garbage 99% of the time. It will either be poorly written or over-optimized, or both. Honestly, Warrior is the only place that I charge as low as $10/500. The reason I do so is that I can get reliable volume from my sales thread. So, I would say that this forum or forums like these are the best place to get good quality for a low price.

    I guess my point is, if you want someone with a mastery of their language who can also engage readers, you should expect to pay, regardless of their nationality.

    On the whole, you get what you pay for.

    Wow! 5-10$/500 words? Sounds a lot lower than I expected (for good quality not garbage)
    Does 0.07 -0.10 cents per word sound over rated for good quality content?

      I have used Odesk in the past and found some awesome writers for as little as $5 for 500 words.

      Obviously the articles were in a language I don't speak, but I generally then hire a proof reader for as little as $1 to check the article.

      So $6 total let's say.
