In a recent topic on a particular site I visited, when asked if members had 10 people to help promote your website, what would. This interesting question was the surprising answer from a member who had nine people who write articles and a contact person.

Articles are a great way to get links related to the subject of a one-way, linkable content and can be hired for about $ 10 per 400 to 500 words of the article. Prices vary, however, as the range of qualifications.

write the article, such as link building is an excellent candidatate for outsourcing, or perhaps more correctly, Outtasking.


Why outsource?

Oursourcing is great because you can buy services you need when you need them. You do not have to worry about meeting payroll, or the provision of computers, desks or computers. As a freelancer is to research and write that you can take care of other things.

Often, a freelancer is a group, allowing you access to more resources and experience.

Misconceptions

One of the biggest misconceptions is that you can "just give it to them and everything will be fine. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, more time and effort you put into it, the better the chances of success.


Example of project of 10 articles.

Before speaking with my partners in the Philippines, the keyword research and use keywords to set the titles and content of articles. This usually gives me 6 or 8 of article titles. Since not all articles get syndicated, I'm going to several sites of distribution and research articles that the articles in my area has the most links in YAHOO. This gives more information about article topics and titles and the general tone. Then, decide what suits the best article titles. Is it to be "about this" article or "how to" article with a bulleted list of actions that the reader can take right now?

Once all this is written, send it to my partner and ask to see the articles 4 or 5 at once so you can confirm everything is on track.

Or course, I have specified in advance the articles must be original, and conduct regular checks to make sure. Once you have dealt with a freelancer a few times you can provide, but still worth watching all the time.

Do not use the software

There are plenty of people offering software that scrapes Article syndication sites and / or web content, re-organize, and spits out hundreds of articles. My experience is that it would have been easier and probably faster than writing the articles myself, or hire someone to do it.

automated rewrites scraped content seems to work on the search engines, for now, but how long it will last is unknown. The Achilles heel of automation is that you have to use templates and always leave a trail that other automated systems (ie, robots and crawlers) can easily detect.

Price vs Turnaournd time

Most freelance writers take on more contracts than they can handle and juggle the response times to maximize cash flow immediately. At any time you only have a few contracts to work, although they have many pending. Sound familiar?

Knowing this, hoping for a low price with a rotation or a short turnaround with a higher price.

Low or high?

Do not choose the lowest price and not choose the highest. Check what they say and examples of their work and make a decision on which one you like first, then look at cost.

A team is also important. 'Freelance' ofter represents a small group working together. With a team of 5 people writing 20 articles, you get different approaches and viewpoints. Give priority and pay a slightly higher price for a team.

Ratings

Grades are important in relation to what you need. I like newspaper writers, as they are in the business of writing catchy headlines and articles agile, which is what I like about my sites.

Other sites may prefer novelists or technical writers to meet the tone of their sites.

Contracting out or outsourcing is working - just a different type of work. Self-management has some skill and practice and if done correctly, can increase productivity and reduce costs considerably.
