Make Money Writing Articles

If you are skilled with writing, there are several places in which you can invest your energy and time with writing topic relevant articles and get paid for it.

Don’t expect to make a fortune out of it. So why i am telling you about this you probably ask yourself? Well, the title of this blog is how to make money online on the internet and not how to get rich quick or anything like it.

You can do many things to make money on the internet, 5 bucks here, 10 bucks there, if you have some free time you can build up a nice income on the side. And if you really play your cards right, you can even make a residual income once you built your online empire of internet related properties.

The idea of writing articles is very simple, you choose a topic you know a lot about (they check each article so don’t waste your time) and you write an article according to the specifications of the company. It could be 500 words could be less.

Once you are done writing the article you submit it and then it gets reviewed by the editors. If it gets accepted – you made a couple of bucks. Think about how long it will take you to write an article about an issue or subject you know perfectly and think whether it’s worth to invest your time on it.

The Logic Behind Writing Articles For Money:

As i explained in my previous post about Understanding the logic behind things i will explain the logic behind writing articles for money:

1. The Company who is supposed to pay you earns UGC (User Generated Content). I will use UGC a lot because this is something which is the basis of business models of web companies all around the world. Why do they need it? Search engines and mainly Google likes content and see the website as more important and so ranks it higher.

2. The article you just submitted will be used in the future (if accepted) to draw other visitors to their website. Considering their business model also includes advertisements – they will make more money than the $5 they paid you for that article.

So to summarize the idea of making money by writing articles – it’s your choice. You will learn many ideas on how to make money here and you should be the one deciding which ones you’d like to choose. I personally don’t know anyone who make a living by writing articles (I know some authors who make a living by writing books, and blogs).

Fun writing :)
