Use Freelance Writers and Designers

Posted in: Tools, Web Development by Tim Schroeder

As a followup to my post about feeling a little “overwhelmed” lately, here is one solution I hope to use more often.

Using Freelance Websites!

In the past I have used freelance services for many projects. You can use freelance websites for original article and content writing. It usually costs anywhere from $4 to $10 per article. Freelance websites can also be useful if you would like someone to help you with graphic design, custom programming or creating an original website template. You can use freelance websites for just about anything you need help with.

Because many of these freelancers are from India and other non-U.S. countries you can usually get quality work done at very reasonable prices.

Think about how much your time is worth? Do you want to spend 30 minutes or longer writing an original article for your website when you can outsource the same work for $5 per article?

Here is a list of some Freelance websites to consider:

RentACoder.com: http://www.rentacoder.com

GetAFreelancer.com: http://www.getafreelancer.com

Guru.com: http://www.guru.com

elance.com: http://www.elance.com

How often do you use freelance services?

I agree. Outsourcing is an excellent if one lacks the technical knowledge or time. And they are especially good as a spark of creativity.

However, what about the time and cost it takes when you get freelancers who turn out to be terrible, slow and arrogant? I’ve had my fair share of low quality freelancers.

The answer to your question? I try not to use freelancers where possible!

I’m sorry I have to disagree with outsourcing. The whole point of blogging is to share your own personal opinions and create a relationship with your readers.

I think outsourcing would be a good idea to do a case study on but having your blog filled with random peoples articles kind of ruins the whole blog atmosphere. Guest bloggers are a great thing to have it creates diversity and makes your site more interesting.

Hi Shaun. Thanks for the comment.

Just to clarify, when I said outsourcing, I was not really referring to posts on this blog. Instead I meant having articles written to be used on traditional websites to help build deeper content and for search engine traffic etc.

I won’t be outsourcing posts to this blog but will have some guest bloggers every once in awhile.

Hey!

When I went to look at the code I was going to steal it says:

That is kind of funny!

I just can’t afford the freelance right now. I might consider hiring one later on.
