Why not post a request in a motor car Usenet group? Among the motor car enthusiasts are bound to be one or two writers, and dozens of people who think they can write!

Check out eLance or one of the other online contracting big places. A search in google for 'seo content writing services' turns up plenty of places to start.

I'm looking for financial content writers for a new site I'm building but have been hesitant about the move for one simple reason, How do you know if the content you're buying has been written by them or stolen from coprighted sources?

I've posted this in other threads here before, but here it is again for your convenience. If you want to know that your writer is reliable, hire a pro.

As in most things, you get what you pay for. It's when you pay low wages that you really start to run the risk not only of bad writing, but also someone who has simply cut and pasted stolen content to create "new" content.

If you are willing to pay for professional services, you are far more likely to get a writer who:
1. understands all the nuances of web content versus web copy, and which is more appropriate when
2. has experience writing on a broad variety of topics and in a wide variety of styles
3. takes the time to do research using credible sources, not just looking at two or three other web sites on the subject
4. knows how to identify experts and obtain interviews to get you current, expert information
5. can document her sources
6. can write in a manner that will engage the reader at whatever level you require, to pull the reader in, keep the reader reading, and keep the reader on your site.
7. can ultimately help your business to grow

No professional writer is going to be insulted if you ask to see samples and ask for references.

Ditto to everything Eileen said. Also remember that unless you are a graphics site, a pretty picture will get you very limited mileage. The content on your site establishes you as a professional, knowledgeable and reliable source of relevant information, and sloppy or boring writing rarely converts browsers to buyers. Cheap copy usually = bad copy. And bad copy = lost $$$.

Writing good copy, whether it's for sales or just content or anything else, requires time, effort, and practice. That's why the good writers expect to get paid appropriately for their work, just like any other skilled professional. If you want content that will be good for your business (and not harmful to it) and you don't want to spend the hours it will require to research and write that content well, you need to budget for a writer.

And like most things in life, you'll usually get what you pay for...
