Articles are for SEO purposes, and have to contain SOME keyword density, but have to be interesting enough to be read and accepted by various sources. I need 10 articles per week per client, and the pay is $1\/ article. The total for 9 clients comes out to $90\/ per week. Each article will be at least one page long (more or less). This should be a simple enough side gig for someone starting out. We are looking for someone to start out and grow with the company; does not have to be local, but must be in the US.<\/p>\n<p>Must be able to write efficiently and productively in a timely manner; articles are necessary every week. Please send examples to be considered.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> This is a part-time job.<\/li>\n<li> This is a contract job.<\/li>\n<li> This is an internship job<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Mike sends this one in, saying &#8220;He needs SEO articles, which is what I do. At one page each, a good article would take an hour. Assuming you could write 2 articles in an hour, which no one could, that would take up 45 hours a week. Which comes out to around &#8230; oh , $2.00 an hour. For a 45 hour week. With no benefits. But plan on $1.00 an hour. I think twice about bending over to pick up a dollar in the street. I just took a pay cut for my SEO writing, and I am a relative beginner. I make $32.50. AN HOUR. What a dipshit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>45 hours a week doesn&#8217;t exactly sound like a part-time job, either. $1 per article? For $1 I would go to the <a href=\"http:\/\/rubberducky.org\/cgi-bin\/chomsky.pl\">ChomskyBot<\/a> and copy and past whatever came out of it and call that an article. Throw a couple of SEO keywords in there and you&#8217;re good to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article writer needed- high volume I currently have 9 clients that each need articles written on a weekly basis.
