Top Content Writers for Hire

The survival of your brand/project in the digital age depends on the quality of content you are shelling out. Content gives you an edge over your competitors. It is the wittiest sword that can translate your brand ethos to your audience and ultimately help in acquisition.

A study reveals that 80% of individuals like to find out about an organization through various forms of content on the internet. With the plethora of forums at your disposal, it can be overwhelming to select the right platform and pinpoint the right person for the job. But before any of this, you must be sure of the content you require for the project and whether you should build an in-house team or outsource it.

Inhouse Vs Outsourcing - Pros/Cons

Content writing could involve anything, such as online blogs, website pages, landing pages, social media posts, newsletters, and email marketing.

Their primary role is to write well-researched articles that combine first-hand research, already-available content from online forums, and opinions and facts.

This role can be either outsourced, or you can hire an in-house writer for the project. Needless to say, if you want an in-house writer, you need to have the resources, i.e., an office, computers, etc.

Pros/Cons Of An In-House Content Writer

Pros:

• They'll be sitting in front of you, so you won't have to worry about them going missing before a deadline.
• Since they work only for you, there won’t be any distractions.
• Better communication
• Physical access will allow you to get better control over their work.

Cons:

• Additional costs for management resources like health insurance, etc.
• You'll have a limited reach as only those living near your office will apply for the job.
• More time consumption in vetting, negotiating and then onboarding these candidates.
• You'll need more diversity in the content with an in-house writer.

Pros/Cons Of A Freelance Content Writer

Pros:

• No additional cost and payments are involved
• Easy onboarding
• A large pool of talent
• You can find specific industry experts working as freelancers
• No commitment as you can hire them on a project basis

Cons:

• There are thousands of freelancers in the market, and you’ll have to spend a lot of time finding the best for your business.
• You’ll face issues with communications.
• Most freelancers only give 2-3 revisions per project. So you’ll be stuck with an article even if you don’t like it.
• You cannot pick a freelancer for urgent tasks as their turnaround is slow.

If only it were possible to find the perfect content writer with the help of google, the world would be well-written. Before you even start looking for the perfect candidate, make sure you have listed down a detailed job description with the following details - a type of writer, expectations, tentative budget & timeline.

How To Write a Job Description While Hiring A Content Writer?

This is a very crucial step of the hiring process. Make sure this is as detailed as possible. The two main requisites it should cover are the responsibilities and requirements.

Responsibilities

• Produce and research industry-related topics
• Write clear marketing content
• Proofread and edit content before publication
• Coordinate with marketing and design teams
• Use SEO strategies in writing to maximize the online visibility
• Identify customers’ needs and requirements

Requirements

• A Bachelor’s degree in marketing, English or any related field.
• Excellent writing and editing skills in English.
• Portfolio of published articles
• Familiarity with web publications and Content Management Systems (e.g. WordPress)
• Ability to meet deadlines

Once you have these sorted, here are a few tested methods to find a fine content writer for the requirement.

• Scroll through your inner circle. People who know you well and understand your requirements can help you put together a right candidate for the job.
• Take the help of the close-knit communities on Facebook/LinkedIn or slack. Rather than jumping in portals, we recommended scanning through closed groups with authentic participants to help you with the opening.
• Hire an agency for the job. This is again highly dependent on whether you want an inhouse or outsourced person for the job.
• Post the assignment on well-maintained boards - one being Refrens.
