How Much Should you Pay for a Paid Writer?
This is always a difficult question to answer in blogging world. What exactly they expect per article? How they estimate the price? At the end how much you need to pay? All the questions got their own variable answers. So, we can’t define the single answer here. But we can discuss the points which can make difference in the calculation. Here we go then…
Estimating the price per article depends on many factors. So let’s discuss those here…
writer Experience: This makes all the difference in pricing. If you hire experienced people, then obviously you need to pay more and you’ll get Quality out of it. Again here are some points where you need to concentrate
- Writing experience
- Niche experience
Writing experience is different than real time or niche experience. The writer should be experienced in the niche which you are in.
Writers Track Record: This is very important factor in price estimation. Find where else the writer is working and look at his previous articles. And look at the response he got. If possible contact that site owner and enquire about the writer skills and behavior.
Word count: Article just about the given topic or article with in & out of the topic makes the difference in price and quality. If it is just a sneak peak then you don’t need to pay much. If you want in & out of the topic, then writer need to Do more research on the topic. You can pay more in this scenario.
Honesty: So many bad dogs are wandering around the web. They just copy the content, change it and publish it somewhere or sell it. You need concentrate more here to catch those dogs.
Punctuality: This is very important in blogging niche. Posting should follow a standard frequency. Your agreement should talk about, how many posts per month and what’s the frequency.
Finally pricing depends upon the writer and the communication between you and writer. It’s always good to experiment with new comers, who can serve for less.

Hi
Again after reading the post,question still there..how much sud we pay..how much u pay anyone for ur blog..hope that answer can help many..
I pay according to their exp,writing,english, etc… I Do pay from single digit to double digit figures some times.
Some bloggers often find a good paid writers from their friends referred to them.
It’s much better to find info from those people who experience the service of those paid writers.
I think, recommendation is better than self research.
i think it should depend on knowledge and writing ability.
