I was just testing how low can you go to hire a writer and post an ad on to some of the classified websites testing out the lowest I can go. It seems that in the lowest I can go is around one dollar fifty cents for a 500 word article.

However, the quality wasn’t what I really expected. Some of the writers gave me rewrites that is plagiarized and it was caught by copyscape. I’m not too angry about it because I was paying too little for the articles.

I was trying to use bulk purchase to bring down the cost for each article but it doesn’t help because the writer are worried about the rate per article.

I didn’t try Indian writers because I have bad experience with them though one of them actually give me one dollar for 300 word rewrite. You probably can test this out and see whether it works for you.

Another thing is when I posted the ad, only four or five bidders actually bidded for the job. When compared to the past, there were around 15 to 20 writers bidding for the job of five dollar per 500 word article.

If you’re wondering why I require these large amount of articles, I’m actually doing massive articles marketing with a number of my websites. And I made both original or and rewritten articles.

I’m thinking lately about this question.. How to increase the pie and make a hell lot of money out of it?

If you have made some progress in internet marketing and hope to progress at a higher level, what should you do next? You will find that you have hit  bottlenecks in terms of expanding fast and building fast.

One factor that stops me from growing fast is the bottleneck of time. Even if I outsource articles, outsource specific “linkbuilding” tasks, there are still a lot of time constraints that stops me from growing very fast..

So here’s the idea, suppose one person can create the value of 10, why not get another person to help you and increase the total value to 20 or even larger since the synergy of 2 persons can probably increase the total value to 25 or 30?

And you can try paying the person with 6 or 7 or 8 but in the long run, you will still benefit from it.

Obviously, you can also outsource for a VA to do it for you. This may be one alternative if hiring another person in your country is expensive or costly. However, the synergy would be lower if you would need to communicate with the VA through msn, skype, or emails.

If there is a possibility to work together in a office, it would be much better than working through offline means.
