SEO Article Writers Test – The articles are in…

Author: Tom Category: Blogging

It seems like my SEO Article Writers post has caused quite a bit of feedback – both positive, negative and also those who are waiting on the articles before they cast an opinion.

If you have no idea what I am talking about, in my previous post I wrote about how I was looking for an article writer for my extra large dog kennel niche blog.

I found a freelance website called oDesk where I posted a job for 10 keyword optimised articles and ended up finding a lady who offered to write all ten articles (I provided the keywords) for just $16 ($1.6 an article).

As I mentioned earlier, I had quite a few negative comments which pretty much told me to expect inferior articles because of the price I was paying – and I was ready for it (because I was only doing this as a test).

Well I can report that the articles are back, and two of them are up on the website (with the 8 others to follow in coming days). And I thought that now was a really good time to reveal the results and let you decide if you really can expect to only pay $1.6 for quality seo article writers!

Two Of My $1.6 Keyword Optimised Articles:

Dog Kennel Fence

Dog Kennels And Runs

If I can put my biased opinion into the discussion, I am really impressed with the articles. Not only where they really well optimised, they also were extremely personable.

Given the opportunity again, I wouldn’t hesitate to use oDesk for outsourcing my articles again.

What Do You Think?

As I said at the beginning, I really want to hear your thoughts again now that you have seen the articles? Do you approve of the quality? And would you be willing to pay $1.6 for articles of similar quality?

SEO Article Writers For Under $2 An Article?

As part of my Market Samurai Review, I have created a new blog from scratch and using the power of Market Samurai to help me create a profitable blog.

I will be using article marketing and a lot of free link building methods to generate top 3 search rankings for my desired keywords. This means that I will need either need to start writing a heap of articles or hire a SEO article writer.

However, as this is a bit of a side project, and I have quite a lot on at the moment, I decided to take the second option and start looking for a place to hire SEO article writers -but I didn’t want to pay too much.

Where Do You Find SEO Article Writers?

There are a heap of freelancer websites that you can choose from, but the one that I decided with was oDesk.

I found out about oDesk from a friend of mine who managed to get a personal assistant for less that $2 an hour! As soon as I heard that, I thought:

‘WOW, if there are people that are willing to work for $2 an hour or less – then why should I have to pay $5 an article?’

So I decided to head over to oDesk and check out whether I could find some cheap SEO article writers, and I was pleasantly surprised.


There were a heap of SEO article writers willing to work from about $1-2 an article.

I Am Getting 10 Articles As A Test

I decided to test out oDesk and put in a job request for 10 Keyword Articles of between 400-600 words and within 24 hours I had 4 candidates and selected one from America for $16 for the 10 articles (or just $1.60 per article)!

Right now I have given the keywords to the SEO article writer and she has started writing them, and I will give an update once I have received them.

But for $1.6 per article, I can see myself using oDesk on a regular basis, as this will help streamline my niche blogs!

Has anyone had any experience with oDesk?

I had a little bit of confusion in my Market Samurai Discount post, from a couple of readers. So I have decided to give explaining it another go.

Market Samurai is quickly becoming one of the most popular SEO and Keoword Analysis tools on the market, and it is constantly being updated with new features (which are included free when you purchase). I personally use and love the software, and with search engine traffic accounting for 70%+ of my blog traffic – I know that it works!

How To Get Your 35% Off Market Samurai Discount!

It really is a simple three step process to access the Market Samurai promo code that will save you over $50 (35%) off their retail price!

  1. Download Their Software

    Market Samurai allow you to trial their software, and before they will let you access the Market Samurai promo code, they first want you to trial their software!

    Signup And Download Market Samurai Here

  2. Install And Run Market Samurai

    I am extremely surprised when I look at the statistics of the people who have signed up for the Market Samurai download, because only about half of you have actually downloaded the software.

    The Market Samurai discount is build into the software, so unless you download and install the software, you will not be able to access the promo code!

  3. Take Advantage Of The Promo Code Quickly

    Once you install the software, you only have a couple of days to take advantage of the Market Samurai discount before the price goes back up to $149.

    But it is extremely easy to find the discount. All you have to do is install Market Samurai, run the program, and you will be presented with the offer through the software!

Market Samurai Review | Part 1

Following on from my Market Samurai Discount post, I late last week let you all know that I would be showing you the capabilities of the Market Samurai program.

Initially I asked for niche suggestions because I wanted to help one of my subscribers, but I only received two entries and one of them I had no clue on the topic (Sorry, don’t know too much about the hip hop culture), and with Dennis’ queary for the ‘direct sales’ niche, while there were a couple of keywords that had promise – it was just a really competitive niche.

So instead I decided I would take the following action:

Using Market Samurai, I would research and create a niche blog and provide the whole process right here in the attempt to provide a quality Market Samurai review.

Market Samurai Review | Niche Website

I am going to go through the exact steps that I would normally take in finding a profitable niche and the things in Market Samurai that make this whole process a lot easier.

The information in the niche site creation is going to be much to long to have as one post, so make sure you subscribe to my RSS feed so that you do not miss the rest of this series!

My Niche Brainstorming

I always start my niche brainstorming with Market Samurai open, this way I can quickly gauge it a niche idea has enough searches to warrant further research.

So to start it all off, I needed a niche idea, and one I had been playing around with for a while now is ‘house plans’. As I work for my brothers design firm doing architectural 3d, I thought house plans would be something that I would be comfortable writing about. However after further research the niche seemed to be a little crowded (plus I couldn’t get a decent keyword domain that had direct search traffic).

One of the keywords that did appear in the house plans that sparked the need for further research was the keyphrase ‘ cubby house’.

I have a bit of an apology to make. I may have been a little over zealous when I promoted Market Samurai last week. As Dennis pointed out in his comment:

This is not a put down but an observation, so please don’t take offense…I think you’re taking a big chance on trust going for the sale BEFORE the posts on features and benefits.

I totally agree Dennis, I guess since I already use the product – that I know how fantastic it is, but for someone who has never heard of the product, it may seem like I was trying to thrust the product down your throat.

Now, I hope you do take advantage of the Market Samurai discount, but so that you can have a better understand of the benefits of using the software, I want to start doing some free keyword analysis right here – and I want you to give me the niche (so I don’t just pick the easy ones!

What’s In It For You?

What I want is for you to start throwing me niche suggestions in the comments below.

This could be the:

  • Current Niche of Your Blog
  • A Niche You Are Looking To Enter
  • Or Just A Niche That You Think Will Stump Me And Prove That Market Samurai Doesn’t Really Work!

What Will I Provide?

Using the Market Samurai software, I will:

  • Find A Series Of Long-Tail Keywords Related To The Niche
  • All The Data On Those Keywords You Will Ever Need
  • The Process And Criteria That I Use To Select Keywords That Will Drive Traffic

So hit me up with your niche suggestions and I will choose one from the list ( or maybe even let your guys decide) and create and post the keyword analysis over the weekend – posting it early next week!
