Writing article jobs
Now we are getting to the good stuff. Actual companies you can write article for and make money. Each one has it’s own set of rules so make sure you read and understand them before you apply.1. Associated Content: This is the best place for a beginner to start. You get to choose your own topics to write on. If it is specific enough you will be offered a sum of money. You can either accept this sum or deny it. If you deny it your article won’t be published. In the beginning I urge you to take everything you can get so that you will have some published articles behind you to get better paying jobs.First, Sign up for AC Here: Associated ContentSecond, write your first article and submit it. Follow the simple instructions. The only thing I need to explain to you is what payment options to choose. You can submit your article as exclusive (you give up full rights to the article and cannot publish it anywhere else), or non-exclusive (you can republish the article). Needless to say exclusive articles earn more than non-exclusive.You also have another option and that is to choose upfront payment or performance payments only. Upfront payment means your article will be reviewed for payment right away. You may be offered a certain amount or you may be asked to resubmit it for performance payments only if it is not specific enough. If you choose performance payments only you will get paid based on how many people view your article each month. It’s not much, but it helps. For instance I have 370 articles and I earn about $30 each month from page views. If you keep getting denied for upfront payment at least submit enough articles to give yourself some links for your resume.Associated Content use to be a great place to earn, but drastically reduced their upfront payment offers when they introduced the performance payment system. Many writers left and I myself only write there once in awhile now, but this is the best place to get started and get some articles behind you for your resume.
