Making extra cash through online articles

United States
January 1, 2010 8:34am CST
Halo, I have some writing skills and I have been wondering how I can use my skills to earn cash. I came to a thought that submitting my articles online would boost my income. I have been searching for online magazines that I can submit articles to and any other site that can accept my articles at a fee, I have not been able to find any. Has anyone got information on how to submit articles online, how the sites pay and the details of how to do freelance writing online for a fee. Thanx

wow, you can find ALL kinds of writing assignments here: www.incomebooster.org this site here has writing assignments that are already paid for in advance, so all you do is go into the article pool and fish out an article to write that has a topic you are interested in. It tells you up front how much you will be paid for the article and how many words it needs to be and how many days you have to turn it in. There are several categories to choose from, and you are paid immediately after you turn it in and the customer accepts/approves it. www.textbroker.com I have posted several other writing type assignments but I don't think the rules here allow for me to make duplicate answers to similar posts, so if you want you can PM me and I can send you a more extensive list, or look for the other post I replied to that shows the list of links for writing assignments.

Well First I also wanted to earn money from writing sites and for this I joined many sites which are legit as people use to say about those sites . Review strea Triond.com and many more but they use to reject every articles . At one side these sites say that we dont need good writing expert so if any one writes good so they reject to give dam reason that it is copy content and if any one write so so then they reject to give reason that we are not interested to buy your articles because you did too many mistake or your article is very short I dont know what they expect ??????? so I dont want to waste my time on those sites Yes I like if is there any site where I can submit any news, articles any thing and make some cents or points and after reaching minimum points or payout , we can withdraw it . Happy New year

You can't expect to earn good money if you write in grammatically incorrect English.. That's just plain foolish.

There are a lot of sites that will pay you to write articles. My top preferred are Associated Content, Demand Studios, Mahalo, and Ehow. The others are Ecopywriters, textbroker, triond, Bright Hub, and Helium. Some pay upfront for your articles while others pay only for how many page views you get. Demand Studios is my highest paying writing job. They pay between $5 to $20 per article depending on the format you choose. You have to fill out an application and send in a resume before you can write for them though. The resume should have your past jobs on it, and then add any writing skills you have. They are looking for life experience mostly. Once they go over your resume, they will then email you and let you know if you got the job or not. Demand Studios pays twice a week, every Tuesday and Friday. For any articles that you write and get approved by Sunday night, you get paid for them on Tuesday. For the articles you write and get approved by Wednesday night, you will get paid for all of them on Friday. I have been working for them for a year and a half and they are decent to work for. As for magazines, it usually takes a while for something you submit to get accepted or not. They do pay a lot more though so if you have what it takes and they like your article, it is worth it. Hope this helps. If you would like more information on these sites I listed, add me as a friend and PM me. :) Oh and these sites are all free to join!

Halo, thank you very much for your constructive advise. You say that I have to give my experience in writing and my past publications, what if I have never published any of my works in any media. What I mean is that I am a starter and would like to start my writing job, how do I go about this? Thanks

Hello evans_33ke me too wondered as to which site would pay me for writting on articles, even search a few but just didn't got any way in it.In my earlier discussions also have requested some mylotters to share some good article writting sites, but still am waiting for their contact.Myself i think that mine content is of quality and knowledge based most of the time, even good at writting in fictions.So certainly want to try at writting articles and getting paid at the same time for it.Thanks for starting this discussion, will be helpful to me. Happy mylotting.
