Write for Textbroker

Textbroker is a great writing company to get started with. I have personally worked for them with excellent results.

Signing up for Textbroker is as easy as providing your name and email address. Textbroker will then ask for a short article. Normally, I don't like doing sample articles for people when I have plenty of online samples they can review, but it is worth it if you are new to the field. Your article will be graded with either a 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5. In my experience the company almost always starts writers out with a 3.

Your number determines which pool of article titles you can choose from. Obviously, the higher your number, the higher you get paid per word. It only took me 4 articles before the company bumped me up to a level 4.

What I like about Textbroker is that you get to choose which titles you want to write. The rates are also clearly displayed so there is no guessing about what you will be paid.

Once you've proven yourself, you can try to join some Teams. TeamOrders usually pay more per word. You may also get a DirectOrder from a client if he likes previous work you've completed.

Paypal is the designated form of payment. Paypal will pay weekly, but you have to remember to request payout.

Swagbucks

I joined Swagbucks when they first started out. I didn't do too much with it except promote the site. I got bored with the website I guess because I stopped visiting it.

Today I had an article come up for a company I work for. It jogged my memory about the website, so I decided to see if I could log in. Sure enough, my old email and password worked.

To my surprise I had over 8,000 Swag Bucks sitting in my account. I was able to get a $50 Amazon gift card, and a few $5 Paypal payments.

There are plenty of prizes and gift cards you can request with your points, and the site is free to use and earn points with. The main way you earn points is through using their search engine instead of Google's. You can also earn point by shopping, taking survey's, recycling old cell phones and liking the website on Facebook.

Anyway, I know this doesn't have anything to do with writing, but I wanted to share it since it is a great way to earn free stuff.

PS. It is a BBB Accredited Business.

CloudCrowd

Just found another great site for writers called CloudCrowd. Signing up in simple, but the company works through a Facebook app so you must have a Facebook account to apply. That being said, the company pay is fair. Best of all, you get paid daily (24 hours after your work is approved).

After you sign-up, you need to take the tests that are available. The instructions are clear, and the tests are not lengthy. Once the tests are reviewed, you will be able to claim work.

You can get paid to:

*Write article content
*Write press releases
*Edit
*Find URL's for articles
*Find URL's for definitions

Photos for Your Articles

BigStockPhotos is a great resource for writers who need to add royalty free photos to their articles, websites, or blog posts.




These photos are high quality. I like this site much better than photo sites like Flickr, because I have to get permission from photographers on that site to use the image. This takes time, whereas all of the photos on BigStockPhoto are available without any further request for permission.

Constant Content

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to review Constant Content for you.

Constant Content considers themselves a consignment shop for articles. You write your articles and upload them to this site. You then set a price for your article. You also get to pick what licensing you want with your article. When the article sells, Constant Content keeps a percentage of the sale.

This site really works because it has been around for awhile. Website owners looking for great content search this site on a regular basis. That means the chances of your article selling are high.

I know a someone who had their article denied by a content creation site. She was only going to get $15 for it. She decided to put it on Constant Content and sure enough it was purchased for a whopping $80.

I highly recommend this site. Just make the price a little higher than you want to get in the end because Constant Content will keep a portion of the profit. That is how they make their money.

Bukisa

I have been hearing a lot about Bukisa so I finally got around to checking it out. I really like what I see.

Bukisa is similar to eHow in several ways. First, you can write on any subject you want. Second, you are paid via Paypal if you have reached $10 for the month. Third, Bukisa is free to join and earn money with. The great thing is that you don't have to be a US resident to use Bukisa and earn money. All you have to do is have a valid Paypal account.

What is better about Bukisa than eHow? Glad you asked! Some pluses I found with this site are that you are paid on page views. eHow only pays you when people click on content, so some articles are sitting there with 10,000 views and not earning you a dime.

The main difference between Bukisa is that once you submit the article you have to wait for them to review it before it is published. I didn't know this at first and just wrote a quick little article to try it out: How to Add Flavor to Your Deviled Eggs. I never got an email saying it was published, but when I logged in it was and I had already earned money on it.

My final opinion of this site is a good one. I now believe all of the good rumors I have heard about this site and agree that it has the potential to earn a lot more in revenue share than eHow.

If you would like to join I am adding a banner at the end of this post.

Best Wishes,
Alicia Bodine
