    Do you want to say that I will have to write 26 articles (13 categories with 2 per category) on a daily basis of 500 words for at least 22 days in the week and for USD 100 payment?

    I doubt you will find a "quality" writer who is willing to write 60 articles a month (a minimum of 30,000 words if each is 500 in length) for a mere $100.

    The proposed rate is quite poor. Up your rate and hire writers whose contents will guarantee traffic.

    I think it's 806 (500 word) articles! Right? If it's 26 articles a day, multiplied by 31 days in a month. Also, then they all need to be posted on Facebook. :) The OP might be able to find someone that will write for $1 an article. Although, that would typically be incoherent spun content.

    No offense intended to anyone. Good luck!

    I know that everyone has to work within a budget, but if you're looking for long term success, you would be better off paying someone $10-15 per article (still below my rate, so don't think I'm pushing to be hired here) and only buy 7-10 per month.

    You're going to get extremely low quality articles for the price you want to pay, and while it might rank you for a while, you'll soon be dropped by Google.

    If you invest the money to get high-quality (or even average quality) articles at the price I recommended, your site will keep moving UP the SERPs so you can make more money. Then you can afford to buy more articles each month, without sacrificing quality, which will benefit you even more.

    Bottom line, think long-term and achieve success. Think short-term and keep struggling.

    Good luck!

    If you were to multiply the pay rate about four or five times, you might be able to find a serious writer. Anything you purchase for 0.0033c/word will most likely be equivalent to something written by a kindergartner.

    30,000 words + 150 legal pictures for $100.00/month. You will not find a quality writer for 3 words/$0.01 along with pictures you would be lucky to get a quality writer if your budget was $400.00/month. And that along with your payment at the end of the month, which is risky.

    I think you really meant to say "for the long term". You know what rates to expect when you get this in the title :eek: All I am going to say is "buyer beware".

    LOL
    I needed a good wake up laugh and this thread did it for me, thanks OP!

    Usually this is where I try to find a sarcastic comment to include in the message but 3,000 words on a $100 monthly budget comes to roughly around 30c per 100 words. All I ask is that you please that send me a screenshot of one of the articles you get if you do hire someone. I just have to know what the quality looks like at that price.

    Oh, well of course sir! For .30c per 100 word, I will be happy to include images and to find breaking news as well.

    Good for you, can you pm me the details of the writer so that I can pay him more just to have him work for me since I really need some content on my site. Geez. Those who took this job (if ever there is) you are such an id*ot for taking this job. You are one of the reason why the quality of writers here in DP have been going downhill especially the rates. Go somewhere else if you are planning to work for such lousy rates.

    I can assure you that you definitely don't want whatever writer took this job. I'm sure he'll has him sums qualities contents.
