Sites for freelance writers to earn money

The Internet has opened up a wide variety of opportunities for freelance writers. It is easier then ever to sit at the computer, write (even in your PJ's if you wish), and make money doing it, without having to sell yourself. It used to be that a freelance writer wrote, and spent the other half of their time trying to find gigs, or sell their work. That isn't the case any longer.

There are many places where freelance writers can make a living. It takes a little time and work and is often about building up a passive income, but it can be done like never before. If you are still one who doesn't mind working hard to sell yourself, it is possible for you to find those types of freelance gigs on elance.com or other freelance websites. These websites allow writers to bid on jobs with publishers world wide.

If you just want to sit back, write, and work toward the money coming in it would be better to write for the many websites that publish just this type of work.

Constant Content is one of the most professional websites out there. Here you publish your article after careful editing. You set your different licensing prices and sit back and let online publishers buy your work. You have to have a good quality piece that doesn't have any errors to get accepted, however, this can be a very profitable option.

Associated Content accepts a wide variety of work. You can publish almost anything here, for performance pay. Performance pay is where you receive $1.50 for every 1000 views your articles get. They also have an up front program where you can make a fair amount of money having them buy your articles. It is harder to find articles they are interested in. They only buy unique to their website content, as they grow it gets harder and harder to find your niche. However, when you do you can make $3-25 an article (400 words or more) and still make performance pay for those articles.

Helium does a performance type of program. You can write easy to write articles sharing your knowledge and make money from the page views. They make it really easy to write for them. You can find a topic you enjoy writing for and then titles that you know things about and go. You can also find out how much you are making very regularly. On top of it they have extra ways to make money using the market place and contests. Last month I had an article purchased and I didn't even know it could be!

Triond publishes your content to a wide variety of partner websites for pay based on page views. You do revenue
