I have been writing for Textbroker about 3 months and so far so good. I also write for search engines and Textbroker rates are a little lower but I haven’t had any issues with them. I’m glad you had a pleasant experience with them, and it really depends on the writer as far as the quality of writing.

Hi,

I write for Textbroker and I really like it. I’m glad you had a good experience. They are wonderful to write for.

You're right - I mistyped the domain. All fixed to http://www.textbroker.com

You link to textbrokers.com in your post, but probably mean textbroker.com.

I was happy to see your first article from Textbroker.com met expectations. I think results can vary. I’ve gotten 2 articles so far.

#1 – completed after 2 days and about 5 ahead of the deadline (I gave 7 days). Written well – I didn’t want to change a thing. Sent me a direct message afterward to thank me for assignment.

#2 – completed and submitted right before the deadline (I gave 5 days). As I read it, seemed too forced. I saw myself wanting to edit it, and as a result, I haven’t posted it on the site yet.

I’m going to send my next request directly to the first author, and see about working directly with her.

Another benefit of outsourcing the content is that it puts me in more of an editorial role, which is something I’ll be able to add to my resume.

I just put my first order in to Textbroker.com for my New York site. I would prefer to get my content from Craigslist people who actually live in New York but I can't seem to get my ads to post there. So I'm going to put a few general NYC info type article requests onto Textbroker and see how it goes. I have three up there and I will let you know how they turn out. I'm hoping I have the same positive result as you! I think your strategy looks like a good one. With some many blogs it'd be really difficult to stay on top of them using content you produce yourself. It would make doing all the other important things pretty hard. I think outsourcing content is going to be something I continue to do, especially if Textbroker works out well. Investing in content is a great way to bring down the tax bill and increase the overall quality of your sites. .-= Kirsty´s last blog ..Iowa is Out But Indo Might Be In =-.
