vWorker is the evolution of a brilliant idea. Allow entrepreneurs all over the world to access each other’s talents and make it easy to do business together.
vWorker started out as Rent-A-Coder and specialized in programmers. As the company evolved, more services were added. Today, they offer a full range of outsourcing services from programming and website development to virtual assistance and ghost writers.
The payment system is secure for both parties. After you select a worker for your project, you place your money in escrow with vWorker. They hold your money until the project is completed to your satisfaction and you tell them to release your payment to the freelancer. It gives you peace of mind knowing that your project will be done properly or you don’t pay.
I have had great success working with ghost writers from vWorker.
Elance is the second resource I use to find ghost writers. It essentially works the same as vWorker for finding authors and making payments. The difference seems to be that Elance has more writers with English as a first language, so you often find more selection.
When you’re looking for a ghost writer, ask for samples of articles they’ve written and make your decision based on the quality of their work.
