I need to hire writers.
-
Hi,
I have a lot of websites that I am currently developing. Does anybody know of a website to find writers that are for hire.
For example, I have websites that are focused on home related content, websites focused on the printing industry, websites focused on bugs...etc.
Is there a website that I can post or hire writers that have various focuses and expertise?
Any information or advice with this will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Garret

Zerys and Skyword are both decent options. Craigslist and Problogger can be good options as well.
No matter where you go, you'll want to hire a few writers and select the best ones to write additional content. Don't give a writer an order of 10 articles without being sure that they're producing good content for you.

I've used www.thecontentauthority.com and have been happy with their prices/quality of work and turn around time. You simply submit a request for an article about any topic you want, choose how many words it should be and the quality level and their writers get right on it. A 750 word blog post on a specific topic written by a "good" quality writer usually only takes 2-3 hours.

I read a number of articles and reviews on various sites for locating writers and although I have not used them yet, my current thinking is that ProBlogger is one of the better sites to find quality writers. They have a job board that is only $50 a month.

Believe it or not, you can get good writers from craigslist. I've hired some for a few pieces before. Granted, you will have to sift through some trash, but it's easy to tell who the good ones are. The good ones will have links to their published work, and then you can evaluate their work for yourself.
Good luck,
Ruben

I have never hire anybody to write content but I've seen Hubspot recommending some of their tools to hire external bloggers. These tools are Zerys and WriterAccess.
I'm sorry I cannot give you any insight of these tools, perhaps someone here had an experience with them and can share some comments.
Best of luck.

Kickass Tool for Content Writers
I have been a writer for a long time. I have done a lot of writing. Many excellent teachers, professors, bosses, colleagues, and editors have helped me. I've responded to a lot of red ink - a lot of red ink. A few days ago, I found a tool that has been extremely helpful. It has significantly improved the clarity of my writing. Using it on a piece of work makes me more confident about it at publication time. It requires a lot of work to use (at least it does for me) but the results are well worth the time. People who are serious about writing well will understand this tool immediately. http://www.hemingwayapp.com/ I don't own this website (I wish I did) and have no affiliation with it. Today they released a desktop version that they are almost giving away. I have not tried it yet but plan to instal it today.

Does every keyword need its own landing page?
So we're doing a bunch of keyword research. We've identified the big traffic, higher competition keywords and we've identified tons (thousands) of long-tail keywords that would be appropriate. What I'm wondering is: does every keyword need its own landing page (or content page)? Obviously, we'll be building content for all the primary keywords we're targeting. I'm less mystified about that. What I'm more confused about is what to do about the long tail keywords. For there to be any measurable traffic increase, we need to rank well for thousands of long tail keywords. But it's just not realistic to create thousands of quality content pieces to target each of these long tail keywords individually. So how do you go about ranking for large numbers of long tail keywords? I saw somebody post about using an FAQ page to target multiple long tail keywords which makes sense but even with that I'm not going to have a thousand questions. How does one go after large volumes of long tail keywords? Thanks, --eric

What should I look for when hiring a blogger?
In the past I’ve made many mistakes when hiring content writers/bloggers, the end result is that my targeted traffic is no better off even after investing several thousand dollars in to it. I have a blog with 400+ posts, each being over 500 words of unique content yet my traffic is under 30 a day. I use wordtracker for my keyword research so I don’t think that is the problem. Instead of hiring cheap writers from eastern European countries I want to hire people that know what they are writing about, someone that is an expert in the niche, someone like Rand Fishkin and Dr.pete for SEOmoz, always enjoy reading their posts and that is what I want on my own blog. I always refer new writers to this post >> http://www.seomoz.org/blog/perfecting-keyword-targeting-on-page-optimization and have recently had someone complete 40 articles for $200, but this isn’t what I want. I want people to come to my blog, enjoy it, and be satisfied with what they have read. I don’t want people to read the junk I have produced by someone that has no idea what they are writing about. The Panda updates have affected me in a negative way so it’s now time to change. I have attempted to hire “good bloggers” before. $25 an article sound reasonable? I now felt like I was getting scammed which was maybe due to lack of direction as the articles I was getting were not satisfactory. Is it better to have a writer physically come and work in my office? Or is it ok just to pay someone by the article at the comfort of their own home? So the simple question is how do I find great bloggers?

Hi SEOMoz, I am the GM of http://www.scoop.co.nz Today (or possibly yesterday) we dropped from PR 8 to PR6. Have we been penalised by Panda 2? If so what do we do? I have seen posts about seeking a reconsideration, or something but do not know who to contact or what to ask. best regards
