Where can I find decent writers?

Try hiring an editor for editing shitty spun content insted of a writer who is selling said content.

Wouldn't that double his costs? Are there any editing solutions that won't add to overall costs? Better training, maybe? Or perhaps having the outsourced writer use a platform that corrects the text?
 
cough cough -- the BST here has some supreme writers.
 
Marketplace ---> content writing
Elite content writing is amazing but they're currently understaffed.
 
I am getting 800 words article at $2. My writer licensed english teacher at Philippine. She write for SEO agency before. She is new in my niche but she writing well. If you need help ping me. I'll give her contact but she using oDesk. So you have to pay her through oDesk.

Quote me if you need.
Could you share the details please
 
have you tried text broker.. you can choose quality.. I've had pretty good success through them.. but it all sounds so...bought. Cause they really don't give a ""..and you can smell it.
 
I've always had a slight interest in this sort of stuff. My English is great, it's my first language. You can check out my previous posts as well. I'm not sure if you're still looking for a writer but if you are, feel free to pm me and we can talk. I have never done article writing before, (Service Wise) but I'm sure it's simple and it all comes down to having a real human writing a 100% grammatically correct article. We can talk more if you're interested. Plenty of free time on my hands.

Cheers!
 
by "decent" I mean writers that understand the work without you holding their finger, no grammatical/spelling mistakes - something that you can simply copy/paste and start using without changing around things.

I have tried Freelancer.com and I believe I'm wasting both time & money - idiots on there are simply taking up 100 jobs at once and passing them on to a writer that doesn't even know how to write a sentence correctly. (no offence) my english isn't that great.

Some help, advice is needed. I'm looking to spend around $3-4 per 300 words but I just need the thing to flow rather than it being so obvious that its written by an indian or bengali.

I'm a decent writer, and I want $50.00 an hour.
 
Surprisingly, The "indian and bengali's " Have better grammatical skills than most of the writers on here. Its just that they don't actually write the articles themselves. They just simply spin articles. I used to outsource articles but now I just Spin them my self and then slightly rewrite them to make sense. You should do the same =)

Hi OP

My suggestion. I was looking for decent writers as well. I now have found a couple. Here's what I did

1) Post on BHW that I need some good writers, *general* niche idea, what you are looking for, requirements etc. Add the line PM me (or email) if you can do this.
2) You will get like 20+ responses.
3) Write/email each one with the EXACT requirements, topic & niche, what you are looking for, etc, and tell them you will pay them for 1 article to see the kind of quality they can kick out.
4) You'll get a whole ton of articles. Print them. Read them carefully. Rate them spelling, grammer, readability, engaging content, etc. Run them by some other people as well (the top 5 say)

You'll most likely end up with 3 seeming keepers. Contact them back and order say 5 articles from each on topics of your choice. This will give you an idea of how fast they will write for you, and if they put that much effort into EACH article or only the first one.

Keep the gold, brush the rest off. Never short change them. Provide feedback and appreciation. Pay upfront (who doesn't like that) when you've found a good writer.

You will find some here on BHW I promise.

I was not clear in my post - he could buy a spinner and spin his own content than get someone to edit the content for him. I do my own editing and it takes about 5 min to edit a 500 word doc that has been spone at 40% copyscape. After the edit I recheck it with copy scape and get it to 80% to 85%. I than do a few more things to clean it up write a killer title for it and done.
 
Thanks for the solid strategy for finding content writers

This forum is a perfectly good place to look, though you'll get what you pay for at that low rate.
