Do You Need an Article Writing Service?

If you're marketing a website online, article marketing is an effective way to increase sales and traffic. However, it often takes product owners too long to create an article, so they go looking for an article writing service instead.

Before you go hunting for an article writing service, you need to first consider your motivations for doing so. Like anything else you outsource, you should compare it to what it would cost you to do it yourself. Personally, I've developed a system that allows me to write an article in 10 minutes, so I can do six per hour. If I outsourced the same six articles, I would be paying $60. That means I'm working at a $60 per hour productivity level, which is higher than I currently pay myself, meaning I should write the articles myself.

However, if you find yourself unable to write at that speed (you can learn - it's easier than you think!) or consider your time more valuable than that, then you will probably be looking for an article writing service. What should you be looking for?

The biggest thing that I've considered in the past (yes, I have and still do outsource some articles) is the level of English and the quality of the resulting articles. If you hire an article writing service that is producing substandard articles, then that is going to reflect poorly on your business. In some well educated markets, you will immediately turn off your prospect just by showing them something with very poor English.

Beyond English, I look for a sense of creativity. Is the article writing service capable of producing unique content that hasn't just been dredged and rehashed from other article directories?

If you can find an article writing service that does both of these things, at a reasonable cost, then you just might be onto a good thing. However, if you're interested in writing your own articles, if you could learn to do it quicker, then you should checkout my 10 Minute Article System. It's just the thing for you.
