Are you sick of your job? Tired of the commute, office politics, meetings, and job stress, so was I.
Writing is how I started my journey to self employment and produced the income until I figured out the other ways to make money online. If you get your monthly expenses below $1,500, you can make this work for your income. If its more than that you can look for additional businesses to add to your income.
The following sites I have actual real world knowledge on and have used so the advice is legit.
1. E-How – This site lets you publish short article that take about 30 minutes to write or so. You can pick any topic but if the title is taken, you will need to change it a little. All the articles start with,” How to”, so if I was writing an article titled,” how to make money on the internet”, and the title was used, I’d write,” how to make fast money on the internet”. You get the idea, just playing with a few words will get you the same title so that problem is solved. The pros of this site are that you get paid monthly via Paypal, articles are short and easy to write, and the earnings are the highest that I have seen writing. The cons are, and this is a huge one, they review articles weekly to monthly and for any reason they can and do delete entire articles without giving you an explanation. The last time they did this review I lost over 50 articles and decided I was done writing for that site anymore. I still generate income from the articles that remain but I refuse to write anymore there. When they delete articles they are gone for good and you can’t edit and resubmit.
2. Associated Content – My current favorite writing site that allows you to submit articles on any topic you like. They will pay you upfront per article as well as for page views later if they like the article. If they don’t pick your articles for upfront payment you still get earning from daily views. This is a great site to write for, the pros are the up front payments, payment via paypal daily, and any topic to write on. The cons are that article can take up to a week to be reviewed for payments.
3. Helium – This writing site is a bit unusual that you have to write articles on the topics they have available. There is no shortage of titles, however they are unusual. A title might be: financial advice for widows, and you would write on that topic. Another unusual feature is that you must rate article by other writers. It is a lot more detailed on their payment system and I still do not quite understand it. You make money based on article views and get paid via paypal. The pros of this site are: paid via paypal, writing bonus, and many article topics. The cons are lower earnings, can’t make your own topic, and rating system.
4. Hubpages – This writing site offers you the ability to write on any subject and includes google adsense, Amazon, and Ebay affiliates. You get paid directly from the affiliates not the site so be aware that you will need to paste your affiliate codes at hubpages to make money. I did notice that the site does not get the kind of traffic other writing sites recieve however a few Amazon and Ebay sales can quickly have you earning nice money. Writing a review on a book or a product that can be bought from a Amazon or Ebay affiliate link is best for earning you money and clicks. The pros are that you can use 3 affiliates, freedom of topics, and ease of using site. The cons are low traffic, not paid directly from site, and bad rating system. 5.
Squidoo – This writing site allows you to write article for cash paid to you directly from Squidoo through amazon, and google links. This is also a good site to use if you would like to promote your website which they allow. You can genertate a lot of good traffic through Google since squidoo gets indexed fast there. An outstanding writing site that will make you money and promote and generate traffic to your website.
6. Constant-Content – This writing site is similar to associated content in that you make money daily through selling your article however you set the price to sell it at and can sell non-exclusive or excusive rights and set the price for both offers. When a publisher agrees to pay the price the money is sent to your paypal account while the publisher gets your article. They also have articles that you can write for a specific amount of money but you are competing against some other writers to have your article accepted.
7. Bukisa - This writing site is unique in that you can write about just about any topic. They pay you directly by paypal from income earned from your articles. It is a well made web-site but few know about it which makes it easier as a writer to have unique articles at this site.
Writing can become a full time job online if you know what sites to use and what sites not to use. The sites above will make you money and be worth your time.
