Here is a service with transparent pricing:

I work for them. My opinion of them is very positive.

Clients who know what they want will put articles in the general author pool and then invite authors they like to a team. So they pay less as a screening mechanism, then pay a bit more for quality work. It is generally way less than 20 cents a word.
