Finding a Ghost Writer

Since starting JD’s 6 month challenge I have been trying to find a high quality ghost writer to write articles for me at a reasonable price. This task took me to eLance, to the Digital Point Forum, and to the Warrior forum. Since November I have utilized 3 different ghost writers and I received 3 entirely different experiences. The ghost writer I found on the Digital Point forum charged $4 for 400-500 word articles. Pretty cheap. I ordered 1 article to make sure the quality was up to my standards and I am glad I did… The article was terrible. To the authors credit, it did pass copyscape, but it appeared to be written by a 5th grader. I re-wrote it and submitted it to Ezine Articles to boost the marketing efforts of one of my sites. Lesson learned: You really do get what you pay for.
I came to the conclusion that I needed to bite the bullet and pay a little more to insure that my site has some “sticking power” and to actually provide quality content to the visitors of my sites (what a novel concept). Fortunately, my next experience with a ghost writer was an absolute joy. Thankfully, I discovered Annette Jensen from http://jensenwriting.com/ and from this point on she will be my ghost writer. She showed extreme professionalism, met the deadline and provided articles of even a higher quality that I would write myself… I could not be happier & by all means if you are looking for a quality, consistent ghost writer you should certainly go with Annette Jensen. She is worth every penny.

*The other writer was decent (not nearly as good as Annette), and missed my deadline by over a week.
