More about our article writing work.
Our article writing services produce feature articles, trade publication writing and magazine-grade content for in-house publications, trade outlets and content marketing teams. A feature article writer leads each piece, supported by an editor who fact-checks and structures. The team includes former journalists, so fact-checked journalism standards apply to every brief — quotes are sourced, statistics are linked, and unverified claims are flagged before the draft is filed.
What separates a feature article writer from a blogger
A feature article writer reports before drafting. That means scoping the angle, identifying two or three primary sources, conducting short interviews where the angle warrants, and assembling a research file before any prose is written. Magazine article writer work for trade publications follows the same logic — readers in a vertical can spot thin reporting in two paragraphs, and they trust the publication less afterwards.
Trade publication writing has stricter conventions. Industry terminology has to be used correctly, sources have to be the right ones for the discipline (regulator, association, leading practitioner), and the angle has to be one a reader in that industry hasn't seen ten times already. We turn around trade pieces in seven to twelve working days from brief to filed draft, including the interview phase.
Fact-checked journalism on commercial timelines
The most common worry from content marketing teams is that journalistic standards slow the work down. They don't, much. We build the research alongside the outline, hold one round of interviews early, then write into a structure that already knows what it's claiming. Fact-checked journalism on a content article writer's brief takes about 20% longer than an unverified blog post and costs about 30% more. The trust it earns the publication is worth several times that.
Deliverables: clean Google Docs draft, full source list, quote attribution sheet, and copyright assignment on payment. Image research and pull-quote suggestions are included on long-form pieces.
Questions we are asked.
Short, honest answers. Anything else, send to contact@ebookwriting.ai.
What does the starting figure include?
At ebookwriting.ai, the starting article writing fee of $240 covers a single article up to an agreed word count, research from credible sources, expert-quote integration where supplied, two revision rounds, and a fact-checked bibliography.
How long does an article take?
Seven to ten working days for a standard 1,000–2,000 word article. Investigative or interview-led pieces run two to three weeks. Schedules are written into your proposal.
What if the article needs a different angle?
Two revision rounds are included, and we agree the angle and outline before drafting so corrections happen on the plan rather than the prose. If new information emerges late, we'll re-scope rather than force a draft around it.
Who owns the article?
You do. Copyright transfers on delivery, and the article is yours to publish, syndicate, or place under your own byline. We're available for ghosted bylines or named credit, whichever you prefer.
How is the article delivered?
A Word or Google Doc with headline, deck, body, pull-quotes, sources, and image placement notes. A fact-checking sheet is provided alongside, listing every claim against its source.
Can the article be pitched to specific publications?
Yes. We can write to the house style of a target outlet — sentence length, citation conventions, headline register — and supply a short pitch note alongside the draft if you're placing the piece externally.
