How to find a copywriter for SEO articles, descriptions and posts
Which texts are you ordering
Copywriters differ. Some write SEO articles for a blog, others sell through product descriptions and ads, and others handle posts and newsletters. So in the request always name the type of text and the topic: a person who writes about home renovation may not cope with medicine or finance.
How it works on BlaBlaPrice
You write the job as one request, in ordinary words. You do not have to choose a category. The request is checked: no ads or contact details in the text, and you get a hint about what else is missing. Copywriters reply in the chat, quote a rate and show samples. They do not see your contacts until you choose a writer. The request stays active for 7 days and can be extended. More on the “How it works” page.
What to put in the job post
- Type of text — SEO articles, product descriptions, ads, posts.
- Topic — construction and renovation, cars, beauty, IT.
- Language of the texts — English, the local language, both.
- Pay — per 1,000 characters without spaces, per text or a fixed monthly amount.
- Volume and rhythm — for example, two articles a week.
- Experience and portfolio — articles on a similar topic.
- Type of work — one-off or regular.
- Place of work — usually remote.
Example: “A blog about construction and renovation needs a copywriter for SEO articles in English, 2 articles a week of 5,000 characters each. Pay is $1.52 per 1,000 characters, regular work, remote. A portfolio of articles on home topics is required.”
How to choose a writer
The rate per 1,000 characters is only part of the picture. Ask whether keyword research, structure, picking images, revisions and a plagiarism check are included in the price. An SEO specialist usually charges more, because they work from a brief and keywords.
Ask for a few pieces on a similar topic and check whether they read naturally. Offer a paid test task for one article: it shows whether the author understands the topic or just retells the first search results. Agree on the deadlines and the number of free revisions.
For technical, medical or legal topics, choose an author with relevant experience or agree that an expert will check the facts. A text with wrong figures harms your reputation more than no text at all.
Common mistakes
Giving the job without a brief, keywords and style examples. Counting only the price per character and ignoring quality. Demanding a big volume quickly without details. For the visual side, look for a designer, and for product listings there is the content manager.
For those looking for a job
A copywriter registers on BlaBlaPrice as a service provider, chooses this category and region, and replies to job requests. A client only needs to create a request.
