When the Client finds a Writer they
like, they can hire them on the spot. To make the transaction a
safe one, the Client does not pay the Writer directly, but
escrows the funds into a special WritingHub account. This
guarantees to the Writer that the Client is credit-worthy, and
also reassures the Client, because the Writer receives no money
until the work is completed. When the work (or pre-agreed on
portion of the work) is completed…the Client release the funds
to the Writer. When the work is completed, both parties rate the
other party to help future Clients and Writers on the site.
Should a problem arise, the
WritingHub facilitator will step in to help out. Should a
dispute occur, the facilitator arbitrates according to the rules
of the site to ensure a fair and equitable outcome for both
parties.
How Did WritingHub Come About?
WritingHub was the brainchild of
Daniella Vared,
a San Francisco Bay Area resident and recent
graduate in Economics of Clark University, MA.
As a Writer herself, Daniella had been receiving too
many requests for freelance writing. After turning
away paying customers she realized that there was a
need that was not being completely met. Daniella's
ideas and plans were developed into a dotcom reality by highly
creative and energized teams of technologists and managers.

... dynamic pricing commerce, most of which is online reverse
auctions, will top $45 billion or 15 percent of all e-commerce
in 2002, rising to $500 billion in 2006 ...
... typical companies can expect savings of 10 to 20 percent
on goods purchased through online reverse auctions ...
... purchasers also save time, compressing into hours price
negotiations that normally take weeks. Buyers also reach new
suppliers who, because of location or other reasons, never bid
for their business before ...
... online reverse auctions make sense for purchases, almost
everyone agrees. And it is only a matter of time before small
companies use them ...
