Thanks guys

There is also a good "Copywriting" group on Google+ (called a community there). It gives you a chance to see how different copywriters communicate interpersonally (with eachother and outsiders who ask questions)
-
There are groups on LinkedIn and Facebook as well. For example, you can try the "Advertising Copywriting" group on LinkedIn. For in-house jobs, you could post on jobs on LinkedIn as well. It's helpful if the writers have a background in your industry/field.
-
You could look somewhere like elance.com, peopleperhour.com (UK-based) or odesk.com. Check for good feedback and employ someone who is preferably a native speaker of the language. Alternatively there are probably loads of good copywriters and copywriting companies who will have samples of their writing online - there are quite a few when I search for [copywriting london].

What's a good WPM for a copywriter?
My copywriter is currently hitting 2,100 - 2,500 words over three articles on an average day. He is employed full time, 7.5 hours a day with a 30 minute lunch break (He has the choice of a 1 hour lunch and leaving 30 minutes later). Let's say only 6 hours are spent researching and writing: 2,500 words / 360 minutes = 6.9WPM The content is generally rewritten from other websites with a little bit of unique content, on topics that are usually not complicated - the articles themselves are along the lines of a broad summary of what the other website offers/does. The content I receive is fairly generic and doesn't really say anything more than the source material. No formatting is done and generally I receive very large wall-of-text paragraphs. The content is written in one program and then copy/pasted into word to be delivered. All keywords to use are provided, as well as ~50 words and phrases related to the topic. The ~50 words and phrases are usually presented in a list ("they offer x, x, x, x and x, as well as x, x and x" etc), so this part of the task shouldn't be taking long. I am trying to gauge whether this is typical and what I should expect from someone who does this each day, as from previous roles I know more is definitely doable, but as for whether it's doable every working day I'm not sure. What do you usually receive from your copywriters for a day of work?

Copywriter Recommendations?
There are a handful of pages, I'd like to get a fresh perspective on content-wise. They rank well and get traffic. However, we are not seeing the conversions we want to see, so I'm thinking a fresh pair of eyes could help write something more compelling. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on pricing (yes, feel free to self-promote)? Thanks, Ruben P.S. I'm really not looking for any ESL elance type solutions unless there are some strong writing samples.

Copywriters the ups and downs
We use several copy writers for regular blog posts and they do a great job. They rewrite breaking news stories and keep them as unique as possible to avoid duplicate content. When it comes to writing text for pages on websites they dont half take there time. I will need one to write a page of 2000 words at some point. Do you think that is a unfair task and what time limit would you look for on this. I am thinking 7 days. Whats the best ways of managing Copywriters to get the best out of them and making sure they keep content fresh.

Finding a copywriter
Hi seomoz, This is not quite a SEO issue, but I have a feeling you may be able help. English is a second language to me and copywriting is not my favorite sport. So, I've decided to find a copywriter. But have no clue how to look for one. I have hired ton of programmers, designers, and other technical resources in the past. People that have concrete skills - programmer where I could say do X, Y & Z and I can check if X, Y & Z were done - are no problem for me to hire. It still takes a long time, but that's not an issue. I know I want the copywriter to write in certain style (style of seomoz.org, woot.com or doubleyourdating.com). How do you define writing like that? Can writing like that can be defined? And put into requirements? Do you need 'customer avatar' or 'marketing voice' document or something similar? How do I find a kick ass copywriter? Optimisticly hoping there is a better answer than just 'test bulkload of them'! Thank you,
