Hello! I have worked as a writer and freelancer for several years, both in print and online. I have several ghostwritten articles that have been published, and I provide material for SEO web content, promotional materials, as well as articles.
One thing that webmasters and owners have learned the hallway is that while bulk articles at cheap rates are a great way to fill your site with keyword rich content, one single great article can generate way more traffic, over the lifespan of your site, and if it is a $5-10 article, it will pay for itself in weeks, leaving the remaining years of it’s use pure profit. Content that is the same boring old posts with keyword tails and phrases has not yet made one person rich overnight.
Quality and writing for the reader’s pleasure, to provide information that is reliable and of value- that is the reason to write, and soon this SEO obsession will end, and writers can go back to actually making a living at what they do.
