When hiring a freelance content writer on Contra, it's essential to provide a detailed project brief that outlines the scope of the project, target audience, word count or length expectations, tone and style preferences, and any specific keywords or topics you want covered. Including a timeline for deliverables and revisions can also help set clear expectations from the start.
To evaluate a freelance content writer’s suitability on Contra, review their previous work samples or portfolio to assess the quality of their writing and style. Examine feedback from other clients that might be available on their profile to understand their reliability and expertise in similar projects.
