I have a fairly ambitious business plan in place for 2008 that I'm getting into the critical stages of at the moment.

There is a LOT of original content creation involved, so I decided that the only way to make it work was to outsource it.

I'm outsourcing 30 articles a week at the moment, but I'm gearing up to need 100 a week very soon.

I have found 3 writers that I'm really happy with in terms of quality, price and reliability (as well a some that I would never use again!). I'm still looking for 2 more so that if someone ends being too busy I don't have to put things on hold until they're free.

I guess I have 2 questions....

Does anyone else here have experience of outsourcing in volume?

and,

Can anyone recommend a good and reliable writer that they've used?

Thanks.
