A few years back I started to look for online jobs so as to be able to earn money from home. Unfortunately I used to find many sites do not accept writers from all countries and I feel that is very unfair. But now with perseverance and hard work I have practically established myself at this and I even have a group of writers working with me. I was wondering how many of you tried this out? How many of you wish they can try this out? What are your experiences?

I rewrote your article on carpet cleaning and earned the remuneration.I started at squidoo and have 7 write ups there.Though i have not made any money there still I enjoy their site.Most of the sites that I joined want 3-5 pages published.I am a homemaker and a busy one at that so when kids at school and hubby at work I can manage 4-5 hours in between cooking and household chores.I am still on a look out for sites where articles get accepted on the go.Got my article published on Wikinut.Some sites are complicated to publish.

When I resigned from my physical job, I thought I had to apply for another work but fortunately I met a friend online who who sent me a link to freelancer. I was into webanswers then where I was also earning quite well. When I applied in freelancer, it was supposed to be for only a few articles but until now I am still working for the same employer. I must have written thousands of articles for him and right now we are in a busy period where we can hardly cope up with the orders. Since you are also an article writer, for sure you know how much one earns when capable of doing 20 articles a day? I used to do only 5 to 10 articles a day but when I got the hang of it, I found myself doing up to 20 a day. Same as you, my boss has a group of writers from different parts of the globe I suppose and we have never had a chance to meet each other except for the chats online. I never thought I would be earning this much from home. Sometimes, it is even a lot more than what I used to earn in my HR job. I just hope more people will consider the advantages of article writing since there are lots of opportunities for earnings. It is also a job that provides personal satisfaction and a lot of additional knowledge.

Hi Grkelly, yes, the internet is great. Some people earn much more than us, because they can make things to sell online, and they do not even have to face bosses at work. I think sooner or later, many of us will work from home, since bosses will want to cut down on renting big offices for people to work. I usually post articles in writing sites that do not take away my rights to the content. I do not like the idea of ghostwriting.
