EssayWriter.org does not state how long it has been in business, but we are guessing about seven years. At least that is when the first of its writers registered with its company. You see, this company solicits and screens academic writers, and then acts as a job board for students who seek to have specific essays and papers written for them.
To prepare this review of Essay Writer, we looked at several factors – all of the information provided on the company website, testimonials we found on that website, comments and feedback from users in other places on the web, and our contact with the company via phone.
What follows is our summary of EssayWriter.
Services and Features Available
Essay Writer states that it offers academic writing on any topic, in any subject field, and at any level of study. It can do so, it says because it has 90,000 registered writers who, as a whole, ae qualified to do so, with degrees from Bachelors through Ph.D.’s.
We attempted to access the links to “writing services” and “editing services” located at the top of the landing page, but they are quite broken. When we typed in a specific URL for those, we did get to the pages, but there was no listing of the specific products or services – only a statement that said, “We are the leading academic writing platform where hundreds of top-rated academic writers come to work.” This should be fixed.
The business model of “matching” customers and writers is not new. Basically, a student places an order with all details – topic, type of writing (essay, paper, book review, thesis, etc.), page length, resources (if any), and deadline date. That order is placed on the “job board,” and writers will then place bids. The student is free to communicate directly with the bidders, asking any questions about their degrees and backgrounds, and then select the writer whom he thinks is the best fit. Essay Writer gives each customer a personal account so that he can talk directly with his writer during the process and then request revisions, up to two weeks after the final product is delivered.
The company also has several policies which can be accessed at the bottom of the landing page. We urge users to read through these policies carefully because they stipulate the conditions for such things as revisions, refunds, privacy, etc.
Pricing System and Discounts
There are no set prices. Writers set their own prices with their bids. Students are free to negotiate pricing with any individual writer, but once a price is agreed upon, that is what it is. There are no discounts, no company promo codes for special pricing, etc.
As the Essaywriter.org website states, pricing will depend upon the type of product ordered, the academic level, the depth of research required, length, and deadline requirement. Obviously, bids for a basic high school essay will be far lower than bids for a Master’s thesis. The average for a basic essay without research appears to be about $10 per page.
All in all, customers do state that they place their orders, receive bids, select their writers, and get their products on time. In other words, Essay Writer is a reliable and trusted source for academic writing.
Security Level (and How to Proceed with Payment)
There are guarantees of privacy and confidentiality, stating that customer personal information is encrypted and never shared. Customers can feel safe in providing their personal details (name, email address, phone number). Writers are legally bound to destroy their copies of any products they write for their customers so that they never appear anywhere else.
In terms of payment, the company states that it uses a secured SSL-certified payment processor. Like most online retailers do. Customers can thus feel comfortable providing their financial information as well.
Payments made be made via any major credit card or PayPal.
Writers Expertise and Delivery
EssayWriter features some of its top writers on the company website. Students can see their names, the subject areas of expertise, how many products they have written, and a short testimonial from one of their customers. Degree levels and academic writing backgrounds are not provided. These must be determined by customer conversations with those who bid on their projects.
There are some sample essays and papers housed on the website, and we urge students to review these carefully to determine if the level of research and writing would meet their standards and those of their instructors. We found them to be adequate, albeit with a few grammatical errors and sometimes a bit “thin” in terms of resources. One research paper, on television violence, did veer off topic a bit and move into obscenity, but overall, construction was decent.
Additional Benefits
EssayWriter does not speak to “freebies” as other writing services do – free pages, formatting, etc. It does, however, have two free resources – one section on how to write specific types of essays and papers, and on the section with potential topics in a wide array of subject fields. Students may find these helpful.
Conclusion
Essaywriters.org is a legal and reliable writing service. It has an established business model that is essentially a job board that customers can use to post their needs and receive bids. It is up to the customer, however, to hold discussions with writers who bid on their projects and to select the writer who hopefully meets their needs. This places a lot of responsibility on the customer. But, if you are confident that you can select the appropriate writer and negotiate a fair price, then this service may be for you. We would urge the company to fix its broken links and to add content to its writing and editing services pages. Overall, we have given Essay Writer a rating of 4, on a scale of 0 – 5.
