How can I earn money from writing these days?

I really need to make some extra money. Since I started college I realized that I didn't have money for things I enjoyed and I want to start saving some money to the future. Since PTCs don't get you anywhere (at least the ones I join) I really want to start making money writing. I'd prefer places where they pay per article which I think it's best. I'm also from Portugal so don't suggest me sites US only. Please share your experiences with me!

Hi, I use Triond.com for my writing. I get paid per view(s) and it is usually a decent amount. I believe they do support people in Portugal so I would recommend you check it out!

Do they pay you for article or only per views? Thank you!

Triond will pay you per view, usually 10 views is equal to about $0.01

As far as I am concerned, I think mylot will be the first online writing site for you to do.Except for the mylot, I think you can go to the Triond and helium,which can the better ones among the writing sites. The two have been suggested by many more others. Have a nice day.

Right now, I'm currently writing at sharedreviews, dooyoo uk, and triond. The earnings is good from this sites, however you can only earn amazon voucher at dooyoo since you live outside UK like I do. But you can use you amazon voucher to shop merchandise online and send it to your address

I am using reviewstream.com. This is a site where you can review almost anything. They pay $2.5 per review now and bulk rate is $.5. Of course they are not going to make it easy for you, it is difficult to have a review approved now and they usually pay the bulk rate. Right now, I am trying helium.com. I will also try triond afterwards and bukisa.

Can you review anything? Have you ever been paid 2.5 for a review?

Why don't you try to browse the magazine where you lived. I write for magazine and it is freelance. But I have to make a proper search before i send my writing to a magazine. Just pick the magazine that interest you, like parenting or teenage world. I do that and it works. I hope you can make it. Good luck.

I'd love to do that but after a search I realize that magazines here don't accept freelancers. Or if they do it's a closed circle.

I've been on mylot for a few years and while I don't post much and I lost all my earnings (I think about 6/7 for not entering) I might reconsider writing more here.
