Firstly while I have a modest profile as an empoyer on Freelancer, I have a relatively substantial one as a worker, so I am hoping you will take this approach as genuine. I initialy wanted to drop you a brief line to discuss potential future work. I hate making promises and then not delivering so I want to set the ground first and then progress matters. Over the next three months there is the distinct possibility that I am going to get overrun with work. A private client of mine has landed a very substantial role as an SEO executive for a company specialising in legitimate and effective SEO page ranking - if you know anything about SEO you will know there are ways to get on to Page 1 of a Google search, but not so many know how you can stay there - that is where legitimate SEO work comes in. I do all his article writing. It is usually 300 words of copy which I find a nice comfy length as it saves having to expand sentences and fill gaps. Topics range from garden gates to dentists to website designers etc. Basically it is the whole range. Over the next few months I am anticipating demand to increase up to about 800 articles a month and if all goes well, that figure will rise to 20,000 a month in about a year. I have no interest in hiring cheap sub-continent writers as the joy of this copy is that while it requires use of keywords, there is no keyword stuffing - rarely is anything above 1-2% keyword density required. This allows for meaningful text to be written and it makes the job more enjoyable. However with this having the potential to become high volume, I am really only looking for passionate writers like myself to become part of a busy team. I write up to 300 articles a month and still enjoy it as I also get the chance to exercise my sense of humor. Anyway, my reason for writing is to ask a few questions if I may. The first would be to ask how much you would charge for an error-free 100% original 300 word text (and no, I am not offering 1 or 2 dollars as I have no wish to offend!!). The second qustion is to ask if you see yourself still wanting to be a freelance writer in a year's time - this work has the potential to be very long term. Thirdly how many articles do you feel you might like to do in a month were you interested, and finally, does it cause you a problem to write in UK English with English spelling and ideally not too many Americanisms. All the clients will be British or European. Being a Freelance worker I am aware of the perils of putting all your eggs in one basket and that can be a dangerous thing, with or without any form of contract or guarantee. I would not expect you to decide overnight to get rid of all your other clients and nor would I advise it, but it would be useful for me to gauge (gage? - I never quite know that one in US English) what you would be comfortable with. I would be grateful if you coud let me know one way or the other just so I knwo who to stay in contact with. I liked the sound of what you said about yourself in your profile and I just sensed that you might fit in well with the friendly way in which everything is operated. Kind Regards. David Dundas

Hi, I am a professional writer, I can give you quality and original work, give me a chance, below is my writing sample, will give you satisfactory work I charge $5 per article and I dont know the number of article I can write because some subjects take more time in research Waiting for your reply REgards Aarti Writing Sample Women in Business Communication – 5 Tips To Win The Deal Women are an integral part of the business world today. Poised, authoritative and confident most women feel they have to sacrifice likability for authority. If you have to list three major traits of any successful business communicator, these would be credibility, likability and authority – not necessarily in this order. With women, the likability factor is high, which often creates a positive first impression and thereby gives them an edge over their male counterparts. At the same time, this can fast become a weak point if they are not able to immediately balance this factor with credibility and authority. As a business woman, you have to build on the likability factor rapidly and maximize its impact to show your audience that you are credible and authoritative at the same time. Here are 5 critical tips that can help you do this: 1. Control the direction of the discussion Forget about social manners when you are in a business discussion. Interrupt if you must for this is common in business discussions. Focus on controlling the direction of the discussion and holding your ground.

Dear David, as I read your project description, for the first time after long years I can feel that I have a chance to move forward again. As an article writer, starting in 2008, it was always very hard for me to see how India, Pakistan and other such countries landed on articles paying way above $10/piece, and they kept outsourcing these articles to us (the real writers) for $1-$1.5, while they were imperative about "fixed prices". I never found that fair, and they took the credits for the hard work of many Romanians and people from all over Europe. I like to use English correctly, I know my grammar is not as perfect as a native UK grammar, but I know I am not bad with my current grammar skills. I would like to write up to 20.000 articles per year or even more, I'd love that! I know that all my recent projects show up for programming and design, but I am so passionate about writing! I've been writing lately as well, even this week. I mostly work for another Romanian, but would love to work for you! Please contact me and let us agree on prices and other such details. I know SEO principles and would love to spend time studying more about it!

I'm still young girl and have time for that. I already have write some articles and I can provide you samples to see.

Hi! This seems like a very interesting project. I a prolific writer, I've focused mostly on satire/comedy writing in the past, but I am in the process of spreading my wings, trying new things and endeavouring to provide value to others. I can write about almost anything and I enjoy writing for the sake of writing. I could set aside many hours a week for this project as I don't work fulltime and I think it would be stimulating and fun. I'm bilingual, one parent is Swedish and the other English (British) Contact me if you feel I'm your guy !

Hi David, I really appreciated the way you described your requirement - detailed, honest and to-the-point. Makes me think that I would enjoy working with you. I believe that I can produce work to the standard you seek and would appreciate the chance to prove it. To answer your questions: 1. $5 for an error-free, 100% original article. 2. Yes, I far prefer writing on a long-term basis, and want to continue writing freelance for the foreseeable future. 3. Depending on the amount of research required, I could submit up to 3 articles per day - say, up to 60 articles per month. 4. I am a UK native speaker/writer (with a distinctly British sense of humour). Actual rates and quantity of output could be negotiated of course; these are just my markers. I hope you are interested enough to contact me for further discussion. Cheers John
