Where to Look for Affordable Ghostwriting Services?

Hi everyone,

I’m starting this thread because I need some real advice on where to look for affordable ghostwriting services. I have a few writing projects in mind, but my budget is tight, so I’m trying to avoid overpriced agencies and hidden fees.

I’m mainly looking for writers who can help with blog posts and short ebooks. I don’t need fancy marketing language — just clear, original writing that is easy to read and delivered on time. I’ve checked a few freelance sites, but the quality seems mixed, and it’s hard to know who is truly reliable.

If you’ve used affordable ghostwriting services before, I’d love to know where you found them and what your experience was like. Did you work with freelancers, small teams, or a platform? How did you judge writing quality before paying? Also, how do you avoid scams or writers who disappear halfway through the project?

Any tips, websites, or red flags to watch out for would really help me and others in the same spot. Thanks in advance for sharing your experience.
