There were these two articles published in last couple of days which indicates that like few other services Indian can also grab blog article writing work also to India. [ 1, 2]
I know most of you bloggers like to spend most of your valuable time doing marketing of your blog, tweaking your WordPress themes, twittering and commenting around but when its comes to blog post writing, you find it a very hard job specially if you are blogging from long time ( may be you feel run out of topics 
So are you in mood to outsource your blogging content writing work to India?
Well you already knows that India is the huge Business Outsource service provider in the world. The overall outsource services that India provides to the world amounts to more then US$ 7 Billions. More then 400,000 people working day and night in approximately 400 Indian BPO companies. These are basically providing services like IT, Financial Services, Communication and consumer goods. Several print media companies already outsourcing their services to India but what about blogging content writing Services?
You may ask that why so many outsourcing of jobs to India, the reason is pretty simple, it’s cheaper to get these jobs done here in India then any where in the world. Russell Smith note on this economic saving is very interesting, he says:-
Well, there is absolutely no argument about the economic brilliance of such a choice. It’s irresistible. Currently freelance writers in Canada are mobilizing in an effort to raise their rates in magazines and newspapers: The standard maximum rate ranges from 35 cents to $1 a word and has been that way for about 30 years (online writers usually get less). At 0.75 cents a word (that’s v3/4 of a cent), publishers will make major savings, and they won’t have to worry about bolshie personalities either.
Blogger Beware -writers in India can replace you -Russel Smith

Interesting question Shanker. Maybe it would need to start out as payment on published articles until you have a relationship with certain provides and you trust the quality of their work.

I guess it would really have to do with the subject matter of the site. A more personal/artistic site would need to be left to the original author, whereas a business/information technology site could have outsourced articles. But then again, if readers like your writing style, and your outsourced articles sound different, you may lose those loyal readers. I think I’d rather outsource the marketing than the content.

Outsourcing can be really profitable.
I believe that if one finds something that works and he/she outsources it to be done in mass, the return on investment can be huge.
Thanks for the post
