Who wrote that you "belittle" other writers / clients / companies? Not me. I wrote: "you identify with writers who..."

You identify with freelancers who violated the forum rules and had been kicked off this forum. You've been complaining about almost being kicked off the forum for over a year now. But you are still an active member because you have a financial benefit in being a member of this forum.

Freelance writers who use an email address only - worth considering provided they charge considerably less than legitimate essay services because more risks are involved.

Essay companies - worth considering provided they are legitimate / reputable.

I don't believe the administrators would email you just like that, without any specific reason.


The question is pointless. If you cannot disapprove my arguments about freelance writers vs. companies, it won't add anything to the discussion. The reader is interested in rational thought, not in demagogy.

From whose point of view? Writer, client, or company?

Ok. So (assuming your wife cares about your orders more than about your well-being) your wife sends a quick message to your clients, for example:

'My husband is in a hospital. He will contact you as soon as he can, if ever.'

Now, what is the client supposed to do? He/she would probably reply:

'I'm sorry to hear that. But I paid $800 for my project and it is due in a couple of days. What am I supposed to do?'

Now what...?

If the client ordered from a reputable company, the conversation could be as follows:

'I contacted JohnWriter a couple of days ago and haven't received a reply. My project is due in a couple of days. What should I do?'

Now the company contacts the writer. If there's no reply by email, they try to call him. If no success, they wait for some more time and reassign the project. The order is completed on time (or with a small delay).

OR

'My deadline was today and I haven't received my order yet. What's going on?'

Now the company contacts the writer; if no response, the order is reassigned (per the client's permission) or client is refunded.


What I'm implying is that you identify with writers who have nothing more to say than to belittle other writers, companies, or clients.


What makes you think so?

When it comes to professional reputation, a freelance writer with a disposable email or name has much less to lose than a company. If something gets out of control, switching to a new "professional email" is quite easy. (of course, you'll reply that you've been using the same anonymous email for X years, but that doesn't change the fact that it is very easy for an anonymous freelance writer to change their identity quickly).

And it's not exactly the same situation. The company manages the payments and some of them have even access to the correspondence between the writer and the client. They can reassign an order within minutes if needed. In order for your wife to do anything about payments, she either has to wait for you to approve the decision or do nothing.


I know how companies and freelance writers work. MeoKhan's reply in this thread is an honest one.

So a smart buyer (who would also pay $30-40 for the order from a company) would go directly to a legitimate company and have all the protection a company offers. I see no reason for a smart buyer to order directly from a freelance writer, have less protection and flexibility, and pay about the same. The only reason for a smart buyer would be to go directly to a freelance writer and pay less (ie. $15-$20).


That's interesting.. so you have all the procedures that work perfectly in theory, but we know the reality is always different. Once the situation is under control (it could take days), your wife may contact your "trusted colleagues" and they - if they are busy or if they don't want risk not getting paid - can do absolutely nothing and take no responsibility for that. I don't imagine your wife contacting your "trusted colleagues" and tell them: "Look, my husband is in a hospital. Here are the materials for a 150-page dissertation. Please complete it within a week. We'll worry about payment later."

Legitimate companies have more than a couple of excellent writers.. Maybe not 100, but 20 at least.

So it means you haven't written for a writing company for the last 2 years? I don't know companies that would pay $35-$40 per page to their contracted writers.

Legitimate customers (ie. the ones that use the service in a legal and appropriate way) don't necessarily prefer the same person. They should use the paper as a model to start their own research and writing.


That's the bottom line. Working with a freelance writer doesn't bring any extra benefits to students (OTHER THAN a lower price). But now that you and Pheelyks seemingly charge THE SAME rates as legitimate companies do - what is the point for students to work with you rather than with legitimate essay services? Out of the hundreds of company writers there are at least 100 of equal quality.


It's up to them, but I'd personally prefer to have a choice. It's like renting a car - working with a single freelance writer is like using your friend's car; everything may work fine until the car breaks down. When it breaks down - what are your choices? You may call your friend for help and spend a lot of time and money to get it fixed. When you rent from a company, you get it replaced or repaired same day (or within a few hours). No extra charges and piece of mind. Why would a student want to pay the same for less?


Right, a company has much more resources to deal with a crisis. You assume that during emergency you can still communicate; but what if you end up in a hospital? Nobody will contact the client in your name like a company would.


Not accurate. If a freelance writer like you have an emergency (ie. cannot get online), the client is left with no assistance. If the same freelance writer working with a company has an emergency, the company takes care of the problem (ie. looks for a new and equally good writer and reassigns the order). See my analogy about renting a car.


They may try to charge more - but customers get less for their money. Again, would you prefer to order custom software for the same price from Google Inc. (ie. Google Corporation would be directly responsible for producing and delivering the software) or from a freelance programmer sporadically working for Google Inc?

The fact is, the essays online has been exposed as a spammer who fraudulently and deceptively created several usernames to mislead students about his website services, location, and credentials. If you think it's OK and if you think he won't lie about other facts, then I'm fine with it too.


Btw. On top of that, you illegally collaborated with the essays online service to commit academic fraud?

Btw2. I wouldn't be surprised if you and the spammer cooperate and your "testimonial" could be as fake as his multiple identities and credentials. Perhaps he offered you a "free draft" for posting the false statements?

Email is enough.

My guess is there have never been 2300 real accounts in the first place. Just like there are no "98% of satisfied customers."

It also depends if you have resources to complete all orders on time.


5-10% is the way to go for an individual freelance writer. Most freelancers rely on "free advertising" (spam) but it's unlikely to bring them a high ROI. If you don't have a website and rely on your name / email only it's important that you use one name/email only (otherwise you'll end up competing with African fraudsters who use a disposable email address per order).

I'm not into SEO so I'd gladly hear your opinion. I assume that with personalized search results it is very hard to even predict or measure the actual results of a SEO campaign anyway.

When will the penalty be lifted? :

or most expensive? Maybe galaxyessay.(not).

More Ukrainian lies:

type-my-essay.com

custom writing forum. (they use the protected names and pictures of some of the US universities without their consent).

Another one: boomerang review.com

Damn, I thought the site was legit because it features a picture of white guys.. good point. :)

They won't help you cheat (ie. they won't login as you to try to take test or complete an assignment - that is illegal). They can probably provide model answers if you give them your assignment instructions (and won't try to submit them as your own for an academic credit). You can use search for more information. If you change your mind, try the other services advertising here and report if you encounter problems :

Good point. I've heard the translation business for individual translators is about dead (thanks Google ; ). On the other hand, Google will NEVER enter the example essay research market (they "only" provide more and more free tools for students helping them with their research), so it's a huge plus ;).

The sequester ;)

Some students may have (temporarily) stopped seeking help from example research services because they don't have as much money as they used to have. There are also other possible reasons:

- The foreign services have taken over by deception (they claim to be located in the US/UK/Australia but in fact they operate from a third world country where the operation cost is only a fraction of the legitimate services),

- The online freelance writing market is over-saturated (becoming a "freelance writer" is still the easiest way of starting making money online),

- Writing an essay has become "easier" thanks to the availability of the Internet and free research resources.

But despite of that, I think it's just a temporary trend because deception cannot prevail over the truth and students start to learn to differentiate between good and bad writing. Paying $5 less per page and receiving garbage does not make it a good deal ;).


As I pointed out in another thread, I think students seek fast solutions - they click on the ads and find a provider. IF the provider (advertiser) sucks, they come back and complain. They don't have to sign up just to ask 'please recommend a writing service' any more.

How did you find 'paperhawks'? The site was established only 2 months ago.. and cannot even be found in google. I suspect you received direct spam or maybe Facebook ads?

In addition to assignment type, some writers consider project deadline as an important factor in pricing strategy.

It seems students are finally happy - they don't have to ask for recommendations because the advertisers give them what they need with one click. I noticed there is already a commercial version of the site - if you access it through www.essayscam.com ;).

Students - watch out for fraudulent foreign freelance writers

They lie about who they are and trick you into ordering a big project and then they post ads on EssayChat seeking a real writer, like this one below:

It's an old thread, but did you have success with them? The domain name suggest the company is based in the Philippines.

That's an interesting question... Maybe British English is in fact harder to learn? :)

Law is country specific subject so choose a company based in the country where you are. But it's very easy for someone in the US to familiarize themselves with UK law, and vice versa. Things like libraries and the Internet are really nifty that way.

Now they illegally target the names/keywords of other writing services (including EssayScam) to attract search engine users to their own pages: essayassignmenthelp dot blogspot.com. DMCA should work?

That's true. Some companies don't even bother quoting small projects. These are usually the most ungrateful ones (quite often research time takes as much effort as a 10 or 20-page project).

When you want to do dental implants and give your dentist 6 months (rather than 3 or 4 months), your price won't change either ;).

Well, it's usually not always about the word or page count, but the research involved. If it takes 4-5 hrs to research and write 2 pages then $80 may not be that high ;). I doubt they would charge $40 per page for a regular project (unless it's due in a few hours ;). You may consult the other guys I suggested above and compare their prices.

You can probably ask them directly about a discount and they should help you out. But you can also try the advertisers here (click on their ads on top of the page), they are reliable too.

The only way is to start up your own company and spend money on advertising to build reputation first. Or you may try to use sites like elance or craigslist, but then you end up competing with hundreds or thousands of writers who eventually drive down prices below the level of academic writing service employers.

Your agenda was exposed ;).

That's my thinking too. It was revealed 4 years ago that the site is from Ukraine. So what is the big secret?

In your opinion, do most students/clients know they're dealing with a Ukrainian company (rather than UK/US one)? Do they care?

In other words the purpose of your participation in this forum is to spam users/students (ie. persuade them that it's ok if they use a Ukrainian company for programming assignments)? : Or something else...

I don't know what your point is. For me, an American or British student would rather work with educated American or British experts than students from Ukraine (who pretend to have graduated form Western universities).
