Amateurs Crying about $2.00 Articles Again - Get Educated

Again, I have found blogs where writers are crying over job posts that ask for 100 articles for $50.00. At first I laughed, now it is just pathetic. Are these writers really so naive about the industry? How can you call yourself a professional freelancer if you don't know anything about the industry.

I can write an article, any word count, any topic, in 1 minute - and you can too.
Freelance Writers

There is article writing software. Anyone who offers to pay .02 a word are not looking for magazine quality content.

Take a look at this web page. It offers article writing software. Stick your research in and voila, you have an article.

However, beware using this for your own web site. Google reads both of these sentences as the same thing - because it has learned to track the sentence structure used by these software programs.

"the white cow jumped the blue fence" would be the same as "the purple dog bit the purple person"

So, the people who want software written articles are not interested in anyone who cannot provide them with a hundred articles in a few days.

I have never used the software, but I know people who do.
Google Friendly Articles

Also, because Google is becoming so savvy, it is important to change every sentence when writing different articles for different web sites. If you only change the title and a few words, Google will recognize the work and credit it to the first site that it appeared on.

This is why most reviews at sites are rejected. Because, Google said the article was printed elsewhere.
Plagiarizing

This is how people track plagiarizing. There is also software that will search the web for different versions of the same article.

I hope this puts your mind to rest.

However, if you are a new writer, then write the .02 a word article. The promotion is worth enough to make the job worth your while.
