I want to discuss the possibility of hiring outside individuals to write articles for my site, SilveradoSierra.com.

First off, is it a good idea?
Has anyone had success from hiring someone to write articles for your site?
Is there any article sites offering a platform for writers to write articles on topics about which they are knowledgeable that you recommend? I've heard that helium.com is a good one.

I've created a page Article writers wanted! which announces the opportunity but I've yet to receive any messages.

The issue I'm having is that I've just started a brand new site and I know that I need content, content, content but I'm struggling to create the content myself. I'd like to pay someone else to write content for me.

Any suggestions on where and how to get some good articles?

Is a good idea since you can pay him 4 dollars per article, it increase increase your SEPR due to the backlinks being made by the article.

Yeah I'd love to pay 4 dollars per article! Where can I find such a source? Helium articles are expensive.

Try a freelance site like GAF (getafreelancer) to hire
