Hello Andy,
Thank you for your message. Indeed, I am new to the Webmaster-Talk forums. However, my writing career began more than a decade ago. My reputation is well-established with clients on other forums; however, in efforts to offer my content writing services to additional webmasters, I have recently joined Webmaster-Talk forums. I did follow proper protocol by posting in the appropriate area. As time progresses, I most certainly look forward to becoming an active contributor to the community.
Your questions are very well received, as this is information that everyone should ask to protect themselves from less reputable companies.
First, all of my content is verified through Copyscape to ensure that there is not even one instance of plagiarism. As you may know, Copyscape is an anti-plagiarism technology that checks submitted articles against the archives on the web; thus, with Copyscape verification, you can rest assured that the content is 100% original and not, as you had pondered, re-sold to other clients, nor found on any other website.
In fact, every article that I produce is heavily researched and custom-written for each client. In addition, because I respect the privacy of my clients, I do not even post my clients' articles as portfolio samples. Instead, every article posted on my website I specifically wrote for sample purposes to ensure that my clients' articles are unique and that the integrity is not compromised. I believe this is one of the reasons that my client retention ratio is so high.
Lastly, you commented on the price and noted that it was low. I appreciate your input; however, I must admit that the majority of content providers on the boards offer rates which are dramatically lower than mine. The reason for this is that they are often based in India and/or they simply do not have full grasp of the English language. You can easily pay less than a penny for lesser quality content, but I only produce custom researched, grammatically correct, engaging content that is also search engine friendly. Also, as you pointed out, I am new to the community, and therefore am offering additional discounts off my standard rates to help develop trust and a positive reputation for providing premium content.
I hope that I have answered your questions, and that this may also help shed some light for the concerns others may have when hiring a writer.
Thanks for your good questions and interest!
