    Seriously. $1 for 100 word article ? On any topic? I get paid $15 to translate 100 words, and that is WAAAY easier job than to come up with original content on a topic that you've never heard of before. And I see here people from USA and Europe willing to do this for funny money. So what gives? Spinning much, no?

    I don't think so anyone can write himself 100 words for $1 living in US. They must outsource this to other country's freelancer like Philippines, India.

    For India $1=Rs50.57 approx. (Paypal Conversion)
    So it is possible.

    well it was originally in '' content''
    anyway, even an Indian cannot write original content for $1, especially in the area he/she knows nothing about. Yet they take orders...?

    Someone who's either really hard up, and/or is outsourcing the material.

    Still I don't think at this price you can get quality content. Yes if only numbers mattered then it is a different story

    Nobody can provide good service for that price.. Whether Indian or American.
    There's an old saying - you get what you pay for. So I guess if someone hires a writer for $1/100 words he will most probably get spinned or really shitty articles..
