Content writters needed

[Nightwing]

Good Morning from 14 degrees C light showers & rain wetherby UK

Ok I'm getting really frustrated with clients inability to ad content so much so its time to go round the problem and find an outsource solution. So my question is please:

1. Can anyone recommend a contnet writting resource
2. Whats reasonable rates to expect

Thanks in advance

Thanks, I developed it myself

Uh nice, I know when you get into print and Press Release copy it can become very expensive as it requires a higher level of writer.

Yeah when I first looked at it I thought the UX design was good, lots of white space making it clear and the navigation very clear.

One thing I also noticed was the load time, very quick, which is rare.

[tomcraig86]

Thank you, it's only been up a month or so and we're noticing a lot higher conversion rate and stickiness.

We've got a news article each day (coming soon), so I can't provide feedback just yet, but they seem alright, and have some big clients on board.

For the £200/day we got a lot of value for money, it wasn't just online copy

Another nice thing about Textbroker is your ability as a 'client' to re-use the author if you like the content they're producing for you. Therefore, rather than having to continuously re-iterate instructions and 'break-in' a new writer, you can continue building your relationship with someone who has a little more insight into what it is that you do.

Another Vote and Thumbs-up for Textbroker.. I think they also recently launched a service where in you can ensure a local/UK based writers. Like with TextBroker US, it's only US based writers.

Yeah sure I will send you a message, rather then putting the personal details up.

If anyone else wants the details as well let me know, only UK based though.

Could you provide a contact please?

[NiallSmith]

Another route you can consider is: www.textbroker.com. I've worked on both the 'client' and 'writer' side and one of the nicest perks as a 'client' is that you can create instructions for the writer to focus on a specific topic, include keywords, links and more. Additionally, if the author fails to meet any of the criteria outlined in the job description, you can request Textbroker to have the author 'revise' their article.

As far as pricing is concerned, the articles are generally priced between $10-12(US) for a quality entry created by a 4/5 or 5/5 ('star') writer.

I've looked at iwriter.com recently. the reviews aren't too bad, but I am yet to use them myself. They have a tiered payment system based on quality of article and writers level.

I've got a few contacts in the music street journalism business so I've approached them. That could be a good avenue for you as well. I'm sure the Music industry in the UK is underpaid as well.

That's a real how long is a piece of string question and depends to some extent on the quality, length, topic etc. We have a bunch of writers that can cover some areas and I have a bunch of freelancers I am happy to share if you give me a rough idea of what you are looking for.

Are you just getting copy done from 'content plus' or all round package?

£200 a day must of got you some good copy.

By the way, like your website looks clean.

[tomcraig86]

We are about to sign up for a London based company called content plus. We have previously paid £200+/day to outsource a copywriter.

Hope this helps!

Hi,

We use these guys http://buykeywordarticles.com/ on a regular basis for content articles for a number of our sites. There around £4,50 An article and are quiet quick with there response times on requests for more articles.

I use a UK based copywriter rather then a online service, find being able to call and email him direct helps get the content write from the word go, rather then getting it, sending back to make amends etc.

With all the research involved I think £25 for 500 words of onsite copy is good, 2000 words £100, job done.

No personal experience with outsourcing content creation, tho you might just take a look at: http://www.ghostbloggers.net/ It gives you a good idea about the prices as wel.
