    I am doing some speculative research for a client and need the input of experienced DP members.

    If you were choosing a high quality web content writer obviously you would want to see examples of their work and know their fee structure.

    What other criteria might influence your choice?

    Experience?
    Geographic location?

    What else?

    Thanks.

    - Michael

    Length of average content, the quality, grammar, spelling, how long it takes them to write the content, and how much they charge.

    After you qualify them as far as history, experience, grammar, etc, definitely get contact info for several references. Regardless of how they may appear, their customer's views should be very important.

    itsme, has most points.

    The human factor is also important.
    Make sure he/she will work well with you and your communication style.
    Who will have to be the creative one (the one using his/her brain) ?:confused:
    Does that person pay attention to details ?

    Is it a "good" person (honest, sincere, friendly ....etc) ?:rolleyes:

    Is that person cute ? (No just kidding..that's actualy illegal)....;)
