I need to hire writers.
-
Hi,
I have a lot of websites that I am currently developing. Does anybody know of a website to find writers that are for hire.
For example, I have websites that are focused on home related content, websites focused on the printing industry, websites focused on bugs...etc.
Is there a website that I can post or hire writers that have various focuses and expertise?
Any information or advice with this will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Garret

Zerys and Skyword are both decent options. Craigslist and Problogger can be good options as well.
No matter where you go, you'll want to hire a few writers and select the best ones to write additional content. Don't give a writer an order of 10 articles without being sure that they're producing good content for you.

I've used www.thecontentauthority.com and have been happy with their prices/quality of work and turn around time. You simply submit a request for an article about any topic you want, choose how many words it should be and the quality level and their writers get right on it. A 750 word blog post on a specific topic written by a "good" quality writer usually only takes 2-3 hours.

I read a number of articles and reviews on various sites for locating writers and although I have not used them yet, my current thinking is that ProBlogger is one of the better sites to find quality writers. They have a job board that is only $50 a month.

Believe it or not, you can get good writers from craigslist. I've hired some for a few pieces before. Granted, you will have to sift through some trash, but it's easy to tell who the good ones are. The good ones will have links to their published work, and then you can evaluate their work for yourself.
Good luck,
Ruben

I have never hire anybody to write content but I've seen Hubspot recommending some of their tools to hire external bloggers. These tools are Zerys and WriterAccess.
I'm sorry I cannot give you any insight of these tools, perhaps someone here had an experience with them and can share some comments.
Best of luck.

If my blog is on Wordpress, and I've installed the AMP plug-in, what do I need to do to get Google to start indexing all my posts as AMP pages?
If I add /amp to the end of any of my posts, I can see that the plug-in is working. It's been months since I installed it, though, and Google hasn't indexed any of the AMP pages. Am I missing a step?

Hi All, I wanted to place longer content on products category page, Currenty I am showing product listing first and then small description at the end of listing.I don't want to add longer content either bottom or top. I want to make two tabs at the top of each category pages like Products | Informtion In Product section (after clicking on it) I want to display all products listing & in Information tab (after clicking on it) 2-3 paragraphs of webpage content but I'm afraid If I will place the content in this way Google won't index content and my purpose of adding webpage content to target long tail keywords won't fulfill.

Do I need to copyright my free resource PDF?

How can i solve duplicate problem with different url needed?
My client is a big international firm with 10 websites with different url (.co.uk, .com, .com.au, .pl... etc). All websites are exactly the same except the price. I suggested them to only use .com and use region as a sub domain like au.xxx.com instead of xxx.com.au. However they cannot do that for some reason. I am trying to solve the duplicate issue. I dont think i can use 301 redirect or canonial link because all regions are making even traffics. Any suggestions?

What should I look for when hiring a blogger?
In the past I’ve made many mistakes when hiring content writers/bloggers, the end result is that my targeted traffic is no better off even after investing several thousand dollars in to it. I have a blog with 400+ posts, each being over 500 words of unique content yet my traffic is under 30 a day. I use wordtracker for my keyword research so I don’t think that is the problem. Instead of hiring cheap writers from eastern European countries I want to hire people that know what they are writing about, someone that is an expert in the niche, someone like Rand Fishkin and Dr.pete for SEOmoz, always enjoy reading their posts and that is what I want on my own blog. I always refer new writers to this post >> http://www.seomoz.org/blog/perfecting-keyword-targeting-on-page-optimization and have recently had someone complete 40 articles for $200, but this isn’t what I want. I want people to come to my blog, enjoy it, and be satisfied with what they have read. I don’t want people to read the junk I have produced by someone that has no idea what they are writing about. The Panda updates have affected me in a negative way so it’s now time to change. I have attempted to hire “good bloggers” before. $25 an article sound reasonable? I now felt like I was getting scammed which was maybe due to lack of direction as the articles I was getting were not satisfactory. Is it better to have a writer physically come and work in my office? Or is it ok just to pay someone by the article at the comfort of their own home? So the simple question is how do I find great bloggers?

Advice Needed Just Dropped From PR 8 to PR6 - What Do I Do
Hi SEOMoz, I am the GM of http://www.scoop.co.nz Today (or possibly yesterday) we dropped from PR 8 to PR6. Have we been penalised by Panda 2? If so what do we do? I have seen posts about seeking a reconsideration, or something but do not know who to contact or what to ask. best regards
