One popular site that many writers post their resumes on is elance.com. The home page of elance.com will ask you to enter your keywords and the category of professional you are searching for. If you are looking for a freelance writer you might enter 'freelance writer' and select the category "writing & translation". When you hit the search bar there should be numerous writers listed that will show you the writer's name, location, minimum rate and feedback. There's a checkbox that you can check if you wish to request a proposal. Another site similar to elance.com is GoGets.com where you can find writers as well as other creative professionals. There are so many places like GoGets and elance out there that have listings of writers for hire that you might want to take your time and search several. I have found in the past that it's best to have several candidates in mind in the event that writers do not reply to your query. And the only true way to know if a writer is 'good' is by word of mouth like so many other things in life. Ask other website owners who they use. Hi Cindy,
