After weeks of scouring DP, I have finally found someone who’s level of poker knowledge is adequate for writing my poker lessons. The guy charges $10 per article, but the first one he sent me was almost 1000 words of purely unique content….so I think it is a good trade off. I have go him started on the other 6, and hopefully my lessons will all be complete and uploaded to my site by the start of next week.

I have also enlisted the writing services of a writer that has written for me in the past to handle 40 articles for some various websites.

I will let you know how they turn out.

I recently started a thread on DigitalPoint to enlist the services of a writer to write some content on my poker website. I am more than capable of writing what I want, but I was just feeling a little lazy at that particular moment.

I got a lot of responses to my thread and asked to see some samples of their work. All the writers that replied to me were either expensive or didn’t write english in a North American style that was easy to read. I ended up choosing an Indian writer who’s english, I thought, was the most acceptable of the bunch to write my poker articles. Once I got the first article back I was so discusted with the quality that I couldn’t even get through the entire thing. I immediately contacted the writer and ended our relationship.

In hindsight, I should have went with one of the higher priced American writers instead of going through this nightmare. I have changed my mind and I am going to write 8 of the important articles for my poker site and continue searching for a North American writer to complete 40 more for me.

The lesson to take home….you get what you pay for!

After some constructive criticism from members of the DigitalPoint community, I have decided to do a revamp of my site www.PokerYak.com. I have purchased a new header design from a member of DP and I will be going with a full screen design for the new version. I’m still in the creation phase right now, so check the site often to see the ongoing changes.

I’ve also purchased 28 unique 500 word articles to feature on the site that should help the search engine rankings and pagerank. These articles were also purchased from a member of DP.

If you’re a poker fan, come check it out and tell me what you think.
