How To Hire A Freelance Writer

By Sue Hamrick


Finding the right freelance writer to produce your revenue generating articles can take a bit of time, however, if you find one that can easily take on another regular client and the two of you work well together, then that one difficult search will turn into a lot of profitable articles.

Beginning your search should be done with only a minimal number of articles, which is playing it safe just in case you get a writer who doesn't meet your expectations. It is important to keep in mind that there are several different types of writing and each writer might be highly skilled in one area, yet lack in another. For example, there is creative/fiction writing, biographical writing, news writing, general informational article writing, critical writing, copy-writing, poem/verse writing, technical writing, medical writing, essay/report writing, and sports writing. Although a writer may be highly skilled in one area, many freelance writers spread themselves out into others areas as well. So you have to keep this all in mind and relate your writer's skills to your content.

To find a freelance writer, you can look at various freelancing websites that will allow you to post the specification of your project and your budget.

Then you'll need to be on the lookout for those writing samples sent by writers around the world and see who fits your needs the best. The material sent by the applicant must follow the instructions you gave for sample articles. For instance, your requirements state you need somebody who can do ad copy about sports items like baseball collectibles. You can get a sportswriter who moonlights in copy-writing or vice versa, but not a critical writer who sends you a review of his or her favorite restaurant.

In conclusion, the more you are willing to pay per article, the more bids you will get from quality writers who know how to entertain and inform your website visitors so that they keep coming back for more. These writers weren't born yesterday, as they know each article they write will only add more money to your coffers. So although $30 or more for a 500 word article may seem like a lot, when you think about the service they are providing you and the time and effort that they put into your piece, then you will realize that it really is not a lot for that one article. Don't settle for mediocrity for less, pay more for top quality writers and get dynamite articles that could earn your business a fortune.
