You get a job in Fiverr, Upwork and the rest. To write a 10,000 word book.

100% plagiarism free.

You get the job at ₦10/word.

Then you sublet the job on Nairaland at ₦1/word.

You are nothing but wicked.

I know it's not easy to get jobs from freelance platforms, but paying ridiculously is wickedness.

Writers are the cause of their problems.

If we all stop taking jobs at that ridiculous rate, those outsourcing jobs will be forced to increase the rate.

How can one research, write, proofread, and edit a content job all the while ensuring it is SEO optimized, with relevant pictures, and 100 percent unplagiarized only to take 1 Naira per word.

If they can't pay a good rate, let them do the job themselves.

Please, what is the proper rate a writer should charge?

At present time, I don't expect any writer to take less than 3 Naira per word. And that should be the basic rate.

We hope o. I'm presently working at less than ₦2, still fair though compared to ridiculous ₦1.

While you write, try to make efforts to get better-paying clients.

I learned too late that you can't make enough money by taking more writing jobs. You make your money instead from more pay and less work.
Ciao.

Yes, thanks.

I know this.

I'm maintaining my deal with my present employer. But anyone I get that can't pay at least ₦2/word, I don't accept.
