    Getting articles written...

    I was wondering where everyone goes to find people to write articles for their sites. I am working on a few accounting articles for Entrepreneur Accounting, but can only write for a short bit each day. I was hoping to pay a writer for a few 500-700 word articles for the site that I could also submit to article directories.

    I was thinking about Elance, but I know they have a minimum project bid of $50, which seems a little high for just a couple articles.

    Any thoughts or experiences?

    $50 is not a lot to pay for a 500 word article. I personally charge a minimum of $125 to write one article. Do yourself a favor and go with Elance.com.

    Do you really need original content?
    Find free articles you can use on articlesbase.com or one of the dozens of free article sites.
