So this is pretty much a 1 month full-time job. Fuck I'd shoot myself if I knew I had 30 day's of 8 hour a day typing 1 video description a minute coming up in March :upsidedow

I love people that do It though :thumbsup

I have a pressing need for cash so I'll do it for 1000$, I'd need half up front, and I can send you updated daily progress. Contact me at hentaikid at gmail.com

Something like $500 sounds reasonable?

Besides some Indians no one will do it for under $2K, IMO

video title - 5 words each; short desc. - 25 words per video... 30 words in total per video

30*10,000*0.01 = ($)3,000

Drysky,

Nicky, Zdeneczek and Denny are correct in the range being quoted. Non-native English writer will accept close to $2500 - 3200 USD when properly negotiated. It works out to a fairly low wage for someone who can still get the job done correctly, and only in places like Eastern Europe, South America, and PI.

Some jobs can be outsourced to the Chinese and Indians, but not this.

Good luck!

chaze 02-27-2012 10:43 PM

I would say, $6000

This is the best advise.

Phoenix 02-29-2012 09:23 AM

split it up like Sly suggested
10k videos that is a lot of descriptions...you will just get the same regurgitated crap after awhile

panchodog's izzy 02-29-2012 10:08 AM

$500 for 10,000 titles+descriptions comes down to $0.05 each. I can imagine any of the writers that charge $0.01 per word doing it, but you'd be getting a 5 word title at best, and forget about a description to go with it.

If somebody is willing to go as low as $0.01 per word maybe they would be willing to give you 5-10 words on a title or a description just to get the job, but it'd still be pretty hard for you to get both a title and a description in that price range.

Biggie Smalls Web Writing 02-29-2012 10:15 AM

We can do it for $7 500..

PS You're never gonna find anyone to do that amount of work for $500

panchodog's izzy 02-29-2012 10:36 AM

I don't know, Stephen, let's say 10 words in the title and 15 in the description (give or take for a total of 25 words) give you a total of 250,000 words. You could get a price range of anything from $5,000 or lower. How low is going to depend on the writer, of course.

The vast majority of internet content is text. The majority of sites that rank well and do well are owned by businesses that recognize the value of quality text content. Google, again, recently devalued sites with poorly written content, morphing text or content spinners. I provide the highest quality content to many top sites in their market segments in mainstream and adult. My clients are happy, their customers are happy, the search engines are happy and I am happy with our arrangements.

You are oddly fascinated by me in a disturbing 'single white female' stalker sort of way. Hopefully the roofing and x-sell business markets will recover for you soon. Then maybe you can take an interest in your own business opportunities and get on with your life. In the meantime, it would be hard for your opinions about text content to matter any less than they already do. :2 cents:

Considering I hired you to do some text work, stopped you half way thru, and then paid someone else to re-do everything you did (in other words, fired and replaced you) your above drivel is laughable.

Wow Ronald. I'm surprised to see you actually lying so blatantly. You used to be smarter than that.

You hired me one time, about 5 years ago, to do a tiny $100 text job for your 12X sites which were never intended to generate sales from their tours. I did that work for you so quickly and so well that you offered to post a testimonial in favor of my work on www.EngineFood.com, along with 10 pages of other testimonials from satisfied clients.

Then you agreed several times to appear as a quoted source in magazine articles I wrote. Yet strangely, right about the time I told you that I would not refer site owners to you for cross-selling, your tune suddenly changed. I don't mind at all that you changed your tune, and in fact as I have told you before, your dislike has actually brought me a fair amount of clients from the long list of people who dislike you. Ironically, some of my other clients are the same people you work with or have worked with in the past. It seems the whole world can continue doing quite well without you.

Stop lying and stop stalking threads I post in Ronald.

Hahaha, no surprise! A fairy tale and a photochop to distract.

We hired you to vid cap all 12 sites. Are you saying your price for vid capping the tours for all 12 sites was $100? :1orglaugh
We fired you about 4 sites in.
Much later you begged me in icq to give you a blurb for your site. After you made it clear I'd either have to put you on ignore or toss you a blurb, I did. If you bothered the other programs the way you bothered me, I'm not surprised you got other blurbs.
Onto your other lies. Yes, when you asked me for a quote, I gave it. Not because of your scary ability, but for the publication you were in. Yes, I USED you for free press. Unlike your lies about when I finally wrote you off, it didn't come when you told me you didn't know anyone that was in the Xsell game, it actually came when the shit you wrote both here and in magazines became so idiotic that I could no longer be associated with you.
You'll also note that I've distanced myself from the rags you still write for when it became clear that they were more interested in filling the page with words instead of facts.
And lastly, dear liar, a challenge you to do a search here and see when the last time I noticed you was. Was it twice in a year?

No, when I saw you making claims in this thread that flew in the face of the facts, I made a post.

It's hard hanging onto that bottom rung with your work history, I know.
Hang in their!

We both know the facts of what happened Ronald. You can try and rewrite history five years later, but it doesn't change the facts. The work you requested was done completely to your satisfaction. I agreed to quote you in articles, and anyone who takes a look at JBM can see from your posts that we got along swimmingly... until all of a sudden your tune changed. Ironic that it happened right around the time I told you I had no intention of sending you x-sell business.

You didn't 'distance yourself' from industry magazines, you became increasingly clandestine and less relevant, so you didn't warrant much of their attention. If you dislike XBIZ, AVN, Fubartimes and others you should take it up with them, though the list of noteworthy businesses you claim to dislike sure is becoming awfully long and strangely irrational.

The people you are trying to dissuade from hiring me already work with me, and are happy with the content I produce. I have plenty of references, examples of my work, site ranks and other resources to demonstrate the value of what I provide. On the other hand, you have Mojo's dry-cleaning to pick up, a few lies, a big mouth and not much else. Why don't you go back over to JBM and try again to explain to everyone why Facebook is a weak company or why all of India is not a worthwhile market. You used to post wildly inaccurate opinions, now you have stepped down to simply lying.

It's sad to watch... even from a distance. :2 cents:

Its irritating watching some of the "writers" on GFY acting like they are curing cancer in children. Any idiot can find a 3rd world writer with good enough English to get the job done.

I hired full time writers for over a year a couple years back. My strategy was to give 4-5 people at once a chance and settle with the most dependable and reliable or keep doing it until I found good people. I think Relentless was one that i pass over because he was just so arrogant and expensive and really didn't seem to get that we weren't translating ancient texts or classified documents. He kept babbling about SEO and quality writing and showing me his sites as if he actually had traffic or as if Google Web Spam guys are sitting in their cubicles jerking off to his blog posts. If you know so much about SEO... you'd be busy with SEO. If you were any good at anything online, you'd be measuring your success in dollars and not pennies per word.

That jfalcon guy is another (the guy from Uruguay). He was also the least reliable, always behind, always promising/delivering late, talking about how awesome he was etc... so I shut him down right away. Ironically, i ended up hiring a guy that had just quit working with him who was extremely reliable and followed every instruction to the letter.

No surprise that they both come off as very self righteous and arrogant on the boards.

Writing in this business is the lowest art form and requires the least amount of talent. Particularly since we aren't selling writing.

I own plenty of sites and many of them have done quite well for me. Many of them have done very well for others. I own my own affiliate program, review site network, exclusive content paysites, affiliate referral sites, blogs, tubes and so on. However, what I do best is write. The sites I own are an extension of my ability to sell words. Search engines, recurring site members, site membership buyers, mainstream consumers, magazine readers etc.... appreciate text content when it is done well.

Saying a writer should only write for his own sites is akin to saying a shooter should never sell video content, or a site owner with traffic should never sell clicks. That's a fairly shortsighted business model. In the last few years I have sold more than one million words per year. If you had the ability to generate a massive amount of high quality text, you would build your own sites as I have and sell text to others as well. You'd also develop the ability to provide backlinks from quality sites and other useful services in social media or other aspects of web business that benefit from a nearly endless supply of high quality original text. You may think text is the low end of webmastering. Fortunately for me, Google and many others strongly disagree with you. That's not a statement made from arrogance, it's a statement made after seeing actual results on very high traffic sites over a long period of time.
