How to find and choose a decent writer/service?

How can I find and select a quality writer/service?

I know I can go to an elance type place but lets just say that my previous experiences with that type of thing did not go well.

I'm easy to please as long as things are done on time and not stolen. -_-

Depending on your requirement you can either contact content writing companies or pick freelancers from various forums.
If you have a keen eye, you can contact content writers on this forum itself.

Other than elance also, there are certain platforms which provide reliable and competent content developers. Some of them are -
