Bidder Comments : Thank you for the opportunity to provide you with an Elance Sponsored Proposal.

First off, let me say that if you choose to work with me, you'll actually be working with me. I do not outsource any of my work to offshore countries that specialize in sub-par writing.

For that reason, I am limiting my quote to 10 articles per day. This includes time to research each hotel and craft original, quality content for it.

Since there are about 230 days left in the year (my math isn't as sharp as my writing skills) my bid is for 2,300 articles at $25 apiece for a total of $57,500. This takes into consideration the fact that some articles will be longer than others.

Rather than sing my own praises, I invite you to review my perfect 5-star rating to get a feel for the caliber of my work. If you're still not convinced that I'm the best writer to tackle this job, visit LewinCreative.com.

Thanks,

Jonathan Lewin

Bidder Comments : My bid on this project will be for all 30,000 hotels as this is the way the project is listed. Please regard the PMB for a more practical outline of time and amounts.

I assume you will be dividing this project up among several bidders and the more detailed fee and timing schedule will then be what is used for the business terms should I be selected for this project.

I offer professional writing skills, proven abilities and customer service as well as timely delivery. I am skilled in researching to obtain pertinent information that is needed to fulfill this project.

Thank you for your consideration and I look forward to a lengthy working relationship!

My name is Kristian and I would be heading this project and your main point of contact.

Having looked over your brief and attachment, we can see that this is a large and exciting project.

Having taken your deadline into consideration, we aim to deliver 50 reviews daily, 6 days a week. This would deliver your first 9000 reviews by the end of December 2008. Our bid is essentially $10 per researched and reviewed hotel. We would anticipate weekly billing so that you could monitor our achievement of the agreed deliverables and ensure that all work was to your 100% satisfaction.

Please find our bid below for week 1 (300 reviews)

Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any queries or if I can assist in any other way

Best regards

Bidder Comments : Hello Worldforless,

I would be honored to work with you on this project. I feel I have all the skills that you are looking for in a high quality content provider. I have massive experience as an SEO content writer as I used to work full time for an SEO company. During my time working with them I wrote 100 articles a week on a wide variety of topics in a variety of styles. I learned and honed my research skills as well as expanded my creativity. I also have had several pieces of my work purchased and published online in magazines as well. I also have a lot of background in Internet marketing and keyword research as well.

If you choose me as your provider you truly will be getting the best. I don't believe in doing a half way job with anything I do, and especially when it comes to the content I produce for clients. I firmly believe in building solid long lasting business relationships on trust and communication. I work closely with my clients and seek to make sure you are getting what you pay for and then some. I'm willing to work extra hard and to apply myself to helping you meet and excede your goal of 9,000 by December.

I'm an experienced writer who has a unique writing style that is both informative and entertaining. I believe it is crucial to keep deadlines and to always be punctual. I do all my own proofreading checking for spelling and grammatical errors. I only write 100% original content as well. I can give you 15 articles a day at $12 a piece, which means I can get you 75 articles each and every week, promptly and on time. I can send you each days work as it is completed. My bid is for 9,000 hotel articles, although I'm interested in doing all 30,000. This puts my total bid up to $108,000. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Bidder Comments : Hello,
I have spent some time overviewing this assignment as well as the other bids. I feel that $5 per article is very fair and can offer you that I will work diligently on this project, making it my number priority until completion. I have been doing this type of work for quite some time now and I believe that my eLance reviews indicate that I deliver and original content on time. Another reason that I believe that I would be the best qualified candidate for this particular assignment is because I was writing for Kango and have written many articles of this nature. I will include a few samples and although they may not be the exact standards that you require, they are what the client ordered and that is what I deliver. I can work independently as well as close with the buyer and my response time to emails and updates is extremely fast.
I would like to thank you in advance for any consideration.

Bidder Comments : I am offering you 28 years combined international experience (the majority being outside of Elance) in travel writing and photography (fully qualified/trained and as a past travel writer and photographer with the International News Syndicate Ltd., UK, during its years of operation), journalism, editing, research and general writing. I have written countless thousands of travel articles and hotel review over the years, as well as two travel guides.

It is essential that you have professional help in this regard as travel writing, especially hotel information, requires skill and experience. This is something that I can provide you with as well as a proven track record. I do on-going travel writing for Vertical Media (US) and I have put my two references for travel writing work in the PMB message above. Please feel free to contact them as they are very pleased to give me references. I have also attached some examples of hotel reviews that I have written for your review.

My bid is for $7 per hotel content item, starting with the first 9000, and then we can progress with the remaining ones thereafter. I can handle 300 of them per week, and can submit them weekly for your approval. I am also proposing as this is such a large project that we communicate on a regular basis via Skype (please find my address in the PMB) and email (personal email also found in the PMB above), and that this is broken down into manageable weekly milestones for your convenience, with payments to be made weekly.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. I would be pleased to help you with this important project.

Regards,

Andrea Thomas

Bidder Comments : I have an able (and supervised) assistant for this project, and we'd plan to work it full time. The goal is to make a boatload of cash and then take a fine little vacation somewhere warm--in one of the hotels we've learned about by doing this job!

I'm new to Elance, but I've been a freelance writer and editor since 2001, and have written quite a lot of website content--ads, information articles, e-books, etc. Your project won't be difficult, just time consuming, and that's just fine.

I'm going to attach my resume (with links) and a travel essay about my last trip to Hawaii. I should say here that I had a marvelous time, but I decided to write an alternative travel article because some of the stuff we read in Fodors was just plain lies, and it made me mad because I wound up eating in a bad restaurant when I could have had some lovely BBQ chicken from the parking lot just down the road. I don't understand why travel books don't just tell the truth: I think one that did would make scads of money from happy customers who made good choices thanks to learning about :

a: mildew in the rooms
b: crazy B&B owners
c: bad food
d: weird customs they should be prepared to meet head on
e. when "rustic" means there's no toilet
f. when "funky" has its original meaning, referring to a bad smell

Obviously, your hotel reviews wouldn't be written in a negative mode, but my writing sample might make you laugh, and how can that be bad?

I usually charge $0.08 a word, but for a project this huge, the number is just way too big. I'm bidding per hotel, for ten hotels at a time.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Bidder Comments : Living and working in the center of the booming Middle East hotel industry, I believe that I can use my experience to positively contribute to your website.

I am new to elance, but I have years of experience in the hospitality industry. I am knowledgable and passionate about hotel facilities and offerings, food and beverage outlets, and about the expectations of guests who frequent all levels of hotels.

Having a breadth of international hospitalty experience, I can relate to the global traveller searching for a hotel to meet his budget, desired level of comfort, and proximity to various major points of attraction. In addition, being an avid traveller myself, having travelled all over North America, Western Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, I have an understanding of the benchmark for hotels and resorts in these areas.

My passion for this industry combined with my high level of organizational skills, motivation and enthusiasm would make me an asset to this project.
I can deliver a minimum of 12 well written and unique hotel descriptions per day ( 84 per week) @ $10 per description. When the bidding on this project closes, there will be approximately 219 days left in the year, during which I can provide a minimum of 2628 quality hotel descriptions.

Thank you very much for your time, and I look forward to this amazing opportunity!
Sincerely, Heather

Bidder Comments : Hi,
I am interested in writing 300-600 word hotel descriptions for you. I have attached some examples of descriptions of Australian Hotels I provided for an Australian hotel booking website (written in UK English not US English). These descriptions provided information on location, nearby attractions and type of hotel, number of rooms with further discussion on type of room, room facilities, hotel facilities, dining concepts, conference facilities and "how to get there" type information. I sourced information primarily from the hotels own website, by emailing the hotel if things were unclear and by checking comments in tripadvisor.com to get a feel for the hotels. I believe this is fairly similar to what you require.
I am an individual writer so I can not complete 9000 hotels by December. My bid is for 50 unique content original articles per week that have been proofread for spelling and grammatical errors. I am assuming that by the time you select there will be 31 weeks in the year so I can do a total of 1550 hotels at $10 each. I am happy to continue with this project in January next year if there are still more hotels to be done.
Happy to discuss via PMB.

Regards,
Jo.
