I'm looking for a cheap writer, anyone know of one?

[realestate]

Does anyone know of a good cheap writer? I run a real estate website. I'm trying to get someone write an article for me daily on different spots so I can catch keywords.

Can I get some tips also from an SEO standpoint... How long should the article be? is 200 - 300 words ok? Should it include links to other sites? Anything to help me get ranked would help...

Have you ever tried Elance.com? I've used 'em a number of times for freelance writing assignments. Based on my experience, I'd recommend that you search for writers that have experience and portfolios matching your desired subject matter and invite them to bid on your posted jobs. You'll typically find better quality writers that way versus relying strictly on the open bidding process. You shouldn't have any trouble finding 350-500 word articles in the $15-$20 range ... you should also be able to find someone willing to commit to a longer term relationship at a reduced rate.

There's some good writers at Warrior Forum too. They do great work with cheap price. Phillippines seem to have the best outsource but there's others as well. You may want to check here first.

netrico i quoted this guy $5 for 500 words and without any trader ratings he immediately wanted a discount.

I would suggest 250-350 if you're adding daily and consider using a generic free stock photo to accompany the article and name the file the keyword/s you are going for.

You should be able to find some good writers off of Craigslist for around $10-15 an article. It's hard finding good writers on one of the many freelance sites and forums, but I think if you look around and try different people you should be able to find a decent writer for $3-5 per article.

In my experience, the best place to look for cheap writers is DP. There, you'll find a different atmosphere. There, buyers are looking for cheap content - actually they want just cheap things and not quality articles. Well, for the same reason, people have started to come up with articles for cheap prices. Every day you'll find writers coming up with some real cool offers that are hard to believe. So, first decide what type of article you want and then - think a bit about the quality that you're expecting in your articles - and then hire an article writer for writing just one article - see how the article is and then try getting more if the pricing is okay and quality is as expected by you.

Eye kould dew it, butt how much yew phaying? Eye tink dare is sum sites yew kan hi-her righters.

*all kidding aside if you outsource it could take you few times before you find the right person to write for you... Its worth paying a bit more to get a higher quailty writer and more reliable person. Sometimes cheap is expensive. Just my thoughts

Good Luck
