Default Writing Site Content

If I wanted to pay someone to write pages that clearly and accurately describe my content on my site with me providing the keywords to go with the content.

How much would be a reasonable fee to pay to have this done?
How should I pay someone ( Per Page, Per Hour, etc) ?

Always an interesting question: how much for copy?

Traditionally, copywiters are underpaid, underfed and under the weather. You may therefore be conservative, stick to tradition and offer $20 an hour, or per page. Or invest to gain and get a top writer who'll tell you what to pay.

Well, actually I am a top writer (having won every top award around the world, that's official), but don't accept web commissions. You could try nigeltemple.com - good guy, great copy. If you do, please pass on my best regards.

Default writing site content

try going to rent a coder.

Most people think it's strictly for programming needs.
I found some of the best content writers there. You basically put up an auction for your needs.

Expect to pay appr. $15.00 per article. You can specify keywords, density etc.

I had a good experience with a coder named Lisa G.
Hope that helps

Hi,

I've been a published writer for over 30 years. My writing includes website and ad copy, articles, business writing and more. I charge $60 an hour and don't have a problem receiving this rate.

Have Fun,
Jeff
