Employers please up your game and stop trying to pay writers N1 or N1.5 per word for writing jobs. It's ridiculous.

Pls your N1/word equals $1/500 words, that's ridiculous. Will you die if you pay N5 per word?

If you want to hire me for any writing job, be ready to pay at least N3 per word. Be rest assured, I don't do shitty jobs for clients. No plagiarism or sort. And if I can't deliver, I won't take the job.

Lmao, I created my NL account to respond to you.

Do you think anyone will see this and hire you? it will have been better if you just wrote your thoughts without inputting the advert.

Your writeup shows you are an immature person who if given a job will just go on strike because of pay.

Mr 5N per word please put the money in the clients account now, 3N as if money is easy to find. At the end of the day you'll open thread of how they refused to pay you.

This is remote work and no yes sir. If you want to become a millionaire with writing you're in the wrong line of work.

My people, life is a choice, you can reject work if you feel the pay is too small.
Its this 1.5/1N work that helped my life when I was broke And hopeless.


Now we thank God, I'm getting *3 not from writing though.

Most gigs here are for students, part time hustlers and other people who want to supplement their pay.

Thank you.

Who told you writers are not millionaires or you can't become one with writing. People have built houses and bought cars with freelance writing. But obviously not from people like who pay 1N per word. If you're a writer and you start hiring your conscience won't let you pay 1N. These people get paid close to $100 for 1500 words most times. That's 48k and they pay the people who do the job 1500 or 2500. And you people blame Nigeria everyday while the problem starts from within.

I support your write up. One need to start from somewhere.

Not everyone is fortunate to make it on freelance site as some that are established already.

This really helped when I was starting out my career as a writer.

I really used this literature section writing job to survive those days.

Humble beginning

Most newbie writer don’t understand the need to start from somewhere, gain samples and scale up the value chain.

people actually make a living from writing, its just patient.. You can be a millionaire via writing

I think the question is are you even good enough to merit N5 per word? Can you deliver a job so good that your employer won't have to spend time correcting?

Why not collect the N1 or N1.5 job and wow your employer. If you deliver a good job ask for a raise. I am a writer with surplus gigs and I have friends in this biz as well. We complain bitterly for lack of good writers.
If for instance give you a job, you did it.. My employer loved it... If you say you want a raise I won't think twice before giving you.

Also, mind you.. Most gigs pay like $10 per 1000words.thats like N4000 on average. How do you want an employer to pay you N3 or N4 and above from that... Most times... Those freelancing site will remove a cut from the pay o

Not as easy as you think.

Hmm, great discussion!

First, as a young writer or a newcomer, you should learn to start from scratch.


I started with N0.5/word and I was scammed countless times LOL... That's part of the experience we are talking about.

Meanwhile, it will get to a point where you will be uncomfortable taking jobs from Nigerians. You will be eager to go to the main source of writing gigs (upwork) and source for clients yourself.


Pending that period, my brother, you should keep improving your writing potentials and make sure you maintain topmost discipline.

generalpelu:


Yes, I can

What exactly is your strongest point

brainy02:


What exactly is your strongest point

I'm best at writing on business, leadership and fictional stories.

I've got a book on business, STREET BUSINESS. I can send you this to vet my skills.

I wrote on the recent EndSARS, titled it SOMETIMES IN OCTOBER.

I've got about 50 short stories.

And who told you we've not started from somewhere?

And besides, do you know the rate of inflation in the country?

You'll wake up soon.

You get what you pay for. Pay N1 and get N1 job. You don't plant maize and expect to get cocoa. You don't pay N1 and expect the writer to spend time to research, read, re-read, and all

writers are the most exploited set of professionals in Nigeria. Thank God they are getting enough awareness and refused to be exploited. just cane across this old thread and saw the bashing he received. https://www.nairaland.com/4314996/urgent-vacancy-article-writer-15000

I'm a new writer, got scammed when someone here said he needed a writer for a long term business, I contacted him, and he gave me a certain topic to write as a test with nothing less than 1k words, I did and sent it to him and till then I never heard of him, found out if he needs articles on certain topics he'll contact writers and demand they write to him as test before he hires them and after you're done you won't hear from him again, and the cycle keeps going.

Sorry to hear about that, but that's part of the learning experience sha. Pls my sister, on no condition must you accept a 1k-word article as test. That's too much.

A good writer/client should be able to examine your potential with not more than 200-300 words.

There's an outsourcer here who asked me to write a 1k article as a sample with a given topic. I just saw the red flag there and left it.

Though some people will actually pay for your sample but it is completely unacceptable to write 1k word as test article... Pls don't do it, 300-word should be the highest you should do.... Good morning.

that is the latest scam on ground, when they need articles they'll source for writers, contact them and then ask them to write articles on a certain topic under the pretense that they're testing him/her and as soon as you're done with the write up you won't hear from them again.

you're so right bro.
I even met one here who required me to write a 300 worded product review and after I delivered it, he paid me for it.
Well I'm still nascent in the writing profession.
Please bro I do send my test samples as PDF format, the outsourcer that asked me to write a 1k worded article to her demanded I send it to her via MS word (doc) and not PDF.
I'm kind of suspecting she wants to edit it since you can't edit with PDF and then make use of it..
This writing profession isn't easy oh

Many client want their work delivered in Doc form, while others want it in PDF, it all depends on their preferences.

I don't know how you will feel about this, but the truth is it is kind of 'impossible' not to encounter one or two scams as an inexperienced writer.

The rule is don't write 1k word as sample; Don't embark on a long-term project with a client you don't trust.

Then, make you pray for better clients... Make God help us
