PROBLEM OF FRAUD IN CONTENT WRITING

Even though content writing has become quite a trend recently not only in India but all across the world, there seems to remain a deep problem regarding reliability in the job. There are a lot of young people who are willing to give their time to content writing companies in order to earn some quick cash. However the problem arises when a writer has to be convinced about the employer not being a fraud. In usual cases, a whole bunch of assignments is shelled out to a writer with a promise to pay once the assignment is over. While most deals are successfully completed, many a times, writers are let down when the pay never seems to be made.
Due to this lack of trust between employer and employee, content writers get rigid and bring about conditions which are sometimes accepted at the other end and sometimes not. These conditions vary from demanding weekly pays to daily assignments and while some content writing companies understand the problem many do not want to flex according to the problems of the writer. Plagiarizing in content writing is yet another problem that has now become easy to detect, thanks to the many free soft wares and sites available to all in order to check if a piece of work has been directly lifted from another source or altered significantly so as to pass off as an original write up. In normal cases, three consecutive words in a line that are kept unaltered do not pass these copyright checks.
While the problem of fraud is prevalent is rampant in the case of content writing, it is not impossible to do away with. Sincerity is the key. While a writer should concentrate on giving quality work to his employer in order to generate maximum profits, an employer should be loyal and moral in order to cater to the needs of the writers. With a basic bond of understanding, such problems of trust and faith can be easily done away with.

Toddy to Tequila Review: How Does Alcohol Tell the Story of India?

What if the history of India could be read through a glass? In Toddy to Tequila , Sandhya Mulchandani turns alcohol into an unexpected historical guide, moving from Vedic rituals and indigenous brews to Mughal courts, colonial trade and modern distilleries. Her subject is never simply drinking. It is faith, pleasure, prohibition, commerce, class, power and the people caught between them. Have you ever wondered what your drink says about the country you live in? Perhaps you are sitting somewhere with a drink in front of you. Nothing dramatic. No Mughal durbar. No colonial club with men in linen suits pretending the weather is not trying to kill them. You might be holding whisky. Or feni. Or beer. Perhaps a cocktail with a name that requires three attempts before you can pronounce it without embarrassing yourself. Perhaps it is toddy, poured from a humble container that has travelled a very long distance from the fashionable cocktail menus of modern India. Now ask yourself a sligh...

Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier. There is a particular loneliness in that question because it rarely arrives at a dramatic moment. More often, it finds you while you are doing something completely ordinary. Yo...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
