Hi again-
You can send me the money via Paypal at my other e-mail address, barriticus@aol.com. If you can pay me for this month in advance, that would be wonderful.
I've started reading up on issues related to what we've been covering and I should have several good ideas for articles by tomorrow. Am also arranging to receive press releases related to the industry and other information flows so that I'll have access to as much information as possible for both the news aggregation and the articles, plus I'm setting up some accounts on reddit and other social networking sites in order to better publicize the site and my articles.
Shukran,

Howdy-
Certainly, one article a week would be fine.
Let me know when you'd be interested in having me start.

Hi Barrett
You have a fantastic attitude. Thanks for being so helpful. Can you manage 4 . In other words at least one per week. We could consider increasing your payment if you help us to get the visitors rate up and thus pay you extra for you extra for the articles.

Hi, Kashif-
I could certainly help to get you to 2000 visitors per day, I believe.
As for the original content, how many articles of about 300 words would you want each month in addition to the news aggregation in return for $500?
I'm definitely interested in the project, as I agree that a medical news outlet directed towards the Middle East consumer would be viable right now.
Thanks,

Hi Barrett
We are a start up with daily readership of 200 visitors only. We want to get this to 2000 visitors per day. What we want is somebody who could gather news from the global press on a daily basis and we will post this with an acknowledgement. Later we will rewrite these stories so that we dont have to acknowledge them. We also need some original content articles and reports may be 200-400 words which can be posted. As far as compensation is concerned ... we have zero income at present and it is likely to stay this way for about 8-12 weeks . however for your efforts we could do monthly fee of between $250-500 for your services. If we feel that this is increasing our traffic we could increase this amount so that after 4 weeks it doubles and even triples after 3 months.
I appreciate you are very qualified and could make an excellent contribution but our start up budget for this is low. If our partnership develops than certainly we will consider giving you higher compensation for your efforts and our incremental income.
Kind regards

Hi-
What sort of compensation are you offering? I have some background in writing on issues relating to genetics and science in general because of my first book and related projects, and could easily bring some additional traffic as I'm now writing regularly for The Huffington Post, among other things.
Thanks,
Barrett Brown

Hi Barrett
Please check our website . Our objective is to increase the traffic on our website:
any healthcare, industry news, local interest news such as : we have a lot of genetics, diabetes etc news because of local cultural practises. This is also among one of the fastest growing region for healthcare and economically.
We need to attract advertisers, traffic and be quoted by other news publishers for being innovative and publish news which is not appearing in the Middle East press. We need 5-10 news stories from global sources a day and some original articles and reports as well syndicated news.
