Pinoy English Article Writers Dominate International Market
"Their English is not good enough. You're dealing with a third world country where English is a second language and we're dealing with tapes that are not crystal clear."
Online, July 18, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Last 3 Months, the Filipinos received criticizing statements about their capability to use the English language.
Assistant Attorney General Benjamin Abrams opposed the proposal to outsource transcription task to a Filipino transcriber during the Guam Board of Allied Health's meeting.
"Their English is not good enough. You're dealing with a third world country where English is a second language and we're dealing with tapes that are not crystal clear."
"We're dealing with a transcriber who may or may not know anything about legal proceedings and certainly can't pick up the phone... to get clarification as to what they might have said." Abrams added.
However, just recently, Filipino writers proved to the world that they can provide quality English articles for various purposes, such as press releases, reviews, blogs, news, and others.
Filipinos are now dominating in providing article services, competing with English native speakers on different online sites like iWriter, Freelance, Odesk and other online writing services.
Since 2004 or even earlier, Filipinos have been providing online article writing services for the international community already. In fact, some of these writers are highly rated.
Behind the tight competition with native speakers and other English 2nd language speakers, Philippine is now one of the best and most affordable hubs to get quality and well researched articles.

This 72 cents US dollar service for well-researched, high quality and original content is the lowest price in the article writing market and it is Philippine based. Competing with this price will be a challenge in the article producing industry then.

Many are then wondering if Filipinos can really provide the same quality of English articles with those of native English speakers. What made it a guarantee that they are English-skilled enough to compete globally in the article writing industry?
The secrets of success
Even though Filipinos are not English native speakers, many of them are well-trained when it comes to the language use. As early as toddlers, Filipinos are already taught to speak and read in English. At school, it is also used as the official teaching language. They also get to interact with English native speakers since there are many of them visiting or migrating to the Philippines. Plus, with the net and international media accessible, they are well exposed to the different standards of English.
Moreover, what makes Filipinos at par with other cultures in terms of article writing is that they are taught with writing skills. This makes even the ordinary people aware of the basic essay or article elements, such as the heading, body, and conclusion. Writers get proper trainings and workshops on writing compositions too, making them more polished writers.
Aside from the writing basics, Filipino writers also value other effective writing factors like the importance of research to come up with informative write-ups. They also write creatively and express their ideas well to ensure a readable and non-boring output. Lastly, they aim to submit on time because they value time commitment and they know how the articles are needed by their clients.
If why Filipinos are brave enough to offer the lowest article writing service rate, it falls to their lifestyle. Philippines has a cheaper cost of living than other countries. A Filipino family can spend 4 dollars to live throughout a day. 72 cent dollars is equivalent to 28 php (Philippine Peso) and one person can already have a complete meal with such amount. With such advantage, this gives them the opportunity to offer lower prices for their services and products.
One of the leading writing companies
Article Writes is a team of writers located in Visayas, wherein there is a cheaper cost of living than the other parts of the Philippines. However, they guarantee the caliber of their writing services since they are composed of professionals in different fields like medicine, business, and communications.

They also offer ghost blogging service.
What makes this group effective in meeting writing standards is the thorough process that an article has to go through before reaching the article requester. Aside that the article orders are properly distributed according to the expertise of the writers; these are also meticulously polished by their proofreader and headwriter. Thus, excellence is perfected.
Behind the competent writers, Article Writes team is spearheaded by a competent administration. It is composed of: Joan Abello, the Head Writer; Charm Villalon, the Proofreader; Ivan Malinao, the Operations Manager; Jet Montalban, the Technical and Design Manager; and Bryan Cinco, the Marketing Director.

The Philippines may be a third world country and Filipinos may not be English native speakers, but it does not mean that they are not capable of competing globally in terms of intellect and writing prowess.
