Hi guys, I started my website some days back and I'm looking for writers. I'm willing to pay 10 cents per unique Article by PayPal. can somebody suggest where I can find good writers?

10 cents an article is slave labor. You'd get about five words for that. If you're lucky, you'll find people willing to work for $1 an article on sites like oDesk, Guru, Freelancer, Elance and so on, but you're still likely to get regurgitated/reworded content that's available everywhere else. Remember: the amount you pay defines the quality you will get (although it's entirely possible you'll get crap for $10 an article, so interview/test people before you hire them).

I agree with spike because the worth you are putting against unique articles is toooo low

I couldn't agree more. You didn't mention how many words one has to organize in that unique article you've mentioned but even if it's only a 100-word paragraph, 10 cents is a waste of time.

I don't think anyone in odesk would accept 10 cents to work on an article.

I wonder why people keep opening up blogs and don't even want to write on them? Come on, do you really think we can't open up our own blogs? It's like you just wanted to open up your own business without wanting to do any work. You just get people to do them for you. But the thing is, your salary offer is way to low for people to get interested.

I agree with everyone else. You should be paying at least a $1.00 per hundred words for a credible article and that is still pretty cheap. You would be better off to write some quality content and then get people to guest blog and put links to their own website or their other work. But, you need to do some of the initial work yourself.

Rochad yoi could try elance and GAF, freelancer sites, you will be sure to find alot of people that will help you do that. There are some marvelous writers here on mylot too that might be willing to take you up on that but maybe your offer is not really what they are looking.

Hey Ronchad, Try Mechanical Turk, and also the article and content editors like Textbroker.com, ContentCurrent.com, and theContentAuthority.com; who knows, you might buy an article from me. However, if you are trying to buy it for $0.10, you may only get 10 words or so. Probably better off trying Odesk or Elance where you can bid to have work done for you.

10 cents per unique article? are kidding? better find a willing free co-writer/co-blogger. don't put a price yet for an article you have not yet read. try to do testings first. rate one's writing according to its content quality and value.
