A Step in the Right Direction

September 24, 2009 at 6:44 pm (Freelance Writing) (, , )

If you want to get paid for your writing, there are many great places where you can do it. But, you do have to find them.

There are a lot of writers that get excited about writing, and then get involved with sites that don’t pay hardly anything for their writing. No matter how good of a writer you are, or how passionate you are about making writing your career, if you don’t make any money for your efforts, you will get frustrated and quit.

If you want to take some steps in the right direction, you can start working at a few sites that I know pay a decent price, and they pay on time as well.

One of them is www.paidforumposting.com If you go to this site, I can tell you two things right up front. One, you have to carefully read all instructions. They have to deal with a lot of people who skim the instructions and subsequently make mistakes, and there are few things more frustrating to them. Second, they have a lot of people trying to get on their team, so you need to post to impress. You will be required to make some posts before they will allow you to be a part of the team, and those posts had better look GOOD.

Once you get onto the team, you also have to be able to move quickly to pick up projects. They go fast with how many writers are there. But you will make about .20 a post. This isn’t great, but if you’re just looking for something fun to do in your spare time, it is a great option. Doing these blog posts gave me more confidence in my writing, and also made it possible for me to put it on my resume that I am familiar with doing blog posts.

Another good place to pick up some part time writing income is places such as Constant Content and Daily Article. On these sites you can write an article about whatever you want, and then put it up for sale. The biggest drawback with these sites is that they take 35% of your sale price. This is a lot, but you can sell articles and make some good money each month.

If you are interested in signing up at Constant Content, it would be great if you could use the link below. One nice thing about this site is that you get paid for sales that your referrals make. They don’t take it from your referral though, they take it from the site’s 35%. It isn’t a lot, but it helps make up for the large chunk they take from our pay.

I hope you find these sites useful, and that you can quickly start making a good part-time income with your writing from home.
