Freelance Article Writer

With this program you will be able to submit your articles to be published by companies that will pay you for your articles. You will have the option to sell your publishing rights for your articles, or you can keep the copyright but sell the article for publishing as well. You will make more money for articles when you give all rights to the publishers; the choice is yours. Articles will be purchased from anywhere from $15 to $400 or more. There is no specific content required; it all depends on what each publishing company is looking for at any particular time.

You can make good money from creating Web articles
One of the first questions you may be asking yourself if "Can I really make money typing short articles?" and the answer to this is "ABSOLUTELY." The Internet is growing so rapidly and as Web sites realize the only way to succeed is to have good fresh content on their sites, this opportunity will continue to grow. The problem is that the supply and demand factor is favoring the writers as article publishing companies can't keep enough fresh article content supplied to these Web sites. This is where you will come in and profit from this opportunity. The important thing is that you will need to establish yourself with these publishing companies, but once you do you will be making very good money from supplying good articles for pay.

Examples of pay for your articles
Short articles usually 500 words or less will pay between $15 to $100.
Longer articles or essays between 500 and 1000 words will pay between $100 to $200.
Articles or short stories over 1000 words will pay as much as $400 or more.

How you will be paid
Most of these publishing companies will give you the option of being paid by EITHER PayPal or mailed check. You will be able to make your choice based on your own preference.

Content of articles
We have mentioned that your articles can be about anything you want to write about, and you will get a better idea of what many of these article publishing companies are looking for once you start submitting your articles. We have a few companies that will pay your for typing essays for high school and college students, and we have one company that will pay you to write short "How To" articles on anything you may have knowledge of how to do. (We will explain more on that publishing site later).

How to create profitable articles
We suggest to use our "How to Create Articles" section to help you create a good profitable article with ease. Use the methods we show you that will make you look like a professional freelance article writer, even if you have never written and article in your life. You can go to the "How to Create Articles" at anytime by CLICKING HERE

Who can create articles
The best part about this program is that anyone from virtually anywhere can create articles for these companies. Whether you are from the U.S.A or Zimbabwe you will have the same opportunity as long as you can type. For now most of the content will need to be written in English. However, many of these publishing companies are asking for articles in different languages as the Internet keeps growing and many Web sites from all over the world are looking for content to add to their Web sites which may be in a different language. This is a rapidly growing industry that will require freelance article typist from all over the world.

Getting prepared
To get you prepared to start submitting articles we need to point out what to expect when you sign up with these publishing sites. Some of these sites will require you to post an article upon signing up with their sites. Basically they want to see that you can create decent articles, and more importantly they want to check your spelling and grammar. This is why as we teach in the "How to Create Articles" part of our training it is important to always check you spelling and grammar. The subject matter of your article will not matter as they will simply look at how your writing skills are. After you submit to these sites allow them as long as a week or two to get you set up and get you going. The important thing is not to give up when you don't get immediate response.

Publishing companies
We have a list of the best companies that are willing to pay you for your articles or short stories. Most of these sites will act as the middleman and will publisher your articles to be purchased by Web sites, affiliate marketers, etc. With these companies they pay you and then sell your articles on their sites, so you do not have to wait until your articles get sold. We have some other sites that are freelance job boards. The way these work is that you can click on the links we provide and take a look at current projects to bid on. These boards are simply you working for the Web sites directly, and no publishing sites to intervene. You simply read what the individual is looking for as example: someone may want you to type 30 articles for their site and you send them your bid to complete their project. Most of the time your are paid upfront or we suggest to collect at least 1/2 the money upfront when you do these projects.

Here are some companies that will pay to publish your articles
Click on the company name in blue to go to their Web site to get more information on how they work. Some will give you their criteria and what they are specifically looking for. If you do not see any criteria as far as what type of articles they are wanting, then they will usually take all general articles on anything under the sun. You are never charged for any of these services as they are here to pay you for your articles. Most of these publishing companies are International, and there are a few that are for U.S residents only. There are more than enough opportunities for everyone with the companies we list.

NOTE: You can submit the same article to all of these sites if you choose. Once the article is purchased for its full rights, you will need to remove the article from the other sites you have submitted your article to. You will have the option to do this in you main accounts on most of these sites. We suggest to submit to a few of the sites to see what kind of response you will get, as this will make it easier to remove from the sites that do not pay. Many people will get offers from multiple sites as you can then take the highest offer. Make sure you list the correct e-mail address at sign up as this will be how these companies or Web sites will contact you to make you an offer.

Constant Content
This is one of the best publishing sites you will find. They have several options that will allow you to get paid such as "Usage" (you get paid when someone uses your articles on their sites). "Full Rights" (most common as your articles publishing rights are purchased, which will pay the best). "Unique" (where you articles are purchased exclusively by someone, but you will still own the rights). To see that you can make some serious money take a look at the authors page on their site HERE. You will see some authors of articles have published over 1600 articles and at just an average price of $75 per article that totals over $120,000 in earnings for some of these authors. So you see that this can really pay off if you are active and established. The important thing is to submit articles, if you do not try this then you will not get paid.

Sign Up Notes: You will sign up as an author to this site, allow up to 7 days for your membership to be verified and accepted. If after 7 days you do not hear from Content you will need to contact them directly. Once you are accepted you will be able to submit your articles.

Associated Content

Associated Content will mail or e-mail an offer to you to publish your article. The offer will be based on whether or not you want them to have exclusive rights to your article. If you give them the exclusive rights, you cannot publish it anywhere else; if you keep the rights, you can publish the articles to your blogs or anywhere else you choose.
