The Skinny on iWriter.com


iWriter.com promises high-quality content for low prices. For writers, it means an entry into the writing world, and if they can write fast and accurate enough, a supplement to their income. For individuals in countries where the economy is not fairing so well, this money could be a full-time income. In places like North America, where $5 does not go very far, it takes far more work to earn enough to live on. However, the site can be a great opportunity for some writers in the field.

For business owners, it can seem like a cheap way of obtaining much-needed website and blog content. You fill out the information form, submit it, and wait for writers to claim the project. Seems perfect.

Well, if you are on a timeline, you may need to submit a request to a writer. Otherwise, you could be waiting a long time. There have been some projects on the board for years. Why is that? If you, as a client, have a low approval rating, writers are less likely to spend the time writing for fear their work will be wasted. Also, if the article is a tough one and the project is low-paid, most writers will not want to take on the work. 

You see, even great writers may only earn $5 an hour. These days, in Canada, United States, Great Britain, and other first-world countries, that is not a lot of money. As a backup for someone without a lot of money, it can work. However, most writers would not even consider that kind of pay. For this reason, many writers are from second or third-world countries. If the project is too difficult, even for individuals in countries where $5 USD is a decent wage, the time spent working may not be worth it.

There is another aspect. If a client is not specific about the work they require or their instructions are not clear, it is possible that a number of article submissions are made without obtaining one that is suitable. As a result, time is wasted for both the writer and the client.

While iWriter can be a wonderful platform for numerous writers and clients, it does not work for everyone. Sometimes it is simply better to pay a higher wage for custom content from small companies that offer free consultations, and that allow you the chance to properly explain exactly what you need.
