I am looking for a couple of NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKING writers to write articles on a regular basis. In a busy week, a minimum of 5 articles a day. In a normal week, a minimum of 2 articles a day.
BUDGET: $1 per 200 words. Will increase to $1 per 100 words for high quality writers.
I will assign one or more topic(s) to write every week, along with keywords and keyphrases. So you need to know how to write SEO articles.
The articles will be for many different niches, so writers must be able to adapt and write in an informal, upbeat, informative journalistic style.
Must be knowledgeable about writing articles for EzineArticles and its guidelines, since all articles will be submitted to EzineArticles.
All articles must be at least 85% unique and original, and must pass Copyscape test.
You agree that upon sending me the articles all rights to the articles are transferred to me. This means you will not sell, reproduce or reuse these articles in any manner.
Please be able to communicate frequently through IMs like Skype, MSN or Yahoo, as well as email.
Selection Process
-----------------
Step 1. After you bid, send me a PM containing this in your cover letter "For long-term writer position" to show that you are not using generalized canned letters. Bids will only be considered with three sample articles from your portfolio.
Step 2. Potential candidates will be provided a topic with keywords and keyphrases to write a 400 words sample article.
Step 3. Based on both portfolio articles and step 2 sample article, I will choose the best candidates.
I'm very fair to our writers, but expect QUALITY work from them as well. You don't need to hit exactly 400 words (or whatever '00 words) as long as you are writing high quality articles. I will pay the same even if you wrote an article with 379 words.
SEO Article Writing Guidelines
------------------------------
If you want to polish your knowledge in SEO writing, or not so familiar with SEO article writing, following guideline can help you.
1. Visit [login to view URL], [login to view URL], [login to view URL], [login to view URL] and [login to view URL] These articles shall help you a lot.
2. I will assign SEO keyphrases for article titles, and you are to write an article which is SEO optimized to that keyphrase (and occassionally one or two more phrases), as well as giving creative titles using assigned SEO keyphrases.
3. Search the Internet on the target keywords AND related keywords for content ideas. Your writing must include CREDIBLE information (not your opinion), but do NOT copy or simply paraphrase other people's work.
4. Write a cohesive organized article using a regular essay format (ie. intro paragraph, 3-5 body paragraphs, conclusion). Write in an informal, upbeat, informative journalistic style and may include creative, descriptive phrasing and appropriate examples.
5. Add some basic SEO formatting:
---Bold the keyphrase in the opening paragraph and 1-3 other times (about half of the occurances) and italicize it once in the article
---Find 4-7 keyphrase variants or derivatives in the article and bold them each once (plurals, possessive, change the order of the words, add words before or after, etc)
---Add bulleting or breaks if needed for lists to maintain graphic flow, etc. of article
---DO NOT alter margins, fonts or colors, etc. The ONLY formatting should be bold, italics, bullets, and paragraph returns.
6. Use CopyScape to verify that your content is 500 words or more in length and 100% original (I will give you access to my Copyscape account if you need it)
Thank you and I will be looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi,
I am a free lancer since Aug, 2009. I do not belive in producing hotchpotch work. I may not be able to write 3 or 4 articles a day but I alway write after consulting at least three to four websites. I prefer quality over quantity. You sound generous and co-operative. 1 USD for 200 words works for me. You will need to be a little bit patient with me because I am not highly exprienced. I prefer permanent work. Good luck.
Dear sir/madam,
Hi there, if you are looking for someone who's serious with his work as well as hardworking and rule abiding, then it has to be me. Looking forward to your kind reply. Thank you in advance.
Yours truly,
Kevin.
