So you want to get some articles written?
I have had literally hundreds of articles writen for me over the years and you quickly pick up on the sneakly little tricks that cheap article writers use to get more for less. Here are some tips on how to get the most out of your writters.
1. Avoid Duplicate content
One word, copyscape. So cheap and definately worth it on a large scale, can also be used as an API for you existing system
2. Get then to Rewrite Articles
Depending on what your article will be used for, it may be worth getting them to re-write an already existing good article on whatever your topic is. This is also common practice and some writers actually prefer it.
3. Have a system in place to moderate your articles
If you have more than one writer then it is almost definately a good idea to have another person moderating the articles to your specifications.
4. Not all writers are made the same
I have had really cheap articles writers make some of my top articles and likewise I have had some of the most expensive feed me nothing but duplicate content. Test out as many writers as practical.
5. Watch for Garbage text
This one is obvious, the article they have sent you is just a random mush of words stuck together. Quickly scan the article and random section of it to check if it makes sense.
Although outsourcing can be a challenging task for some, these tips will help you get exactly the article written what you want!
Enjoy
