Get Paid to WriteLast updated May 2018.

Writing jobs abound on the internet and can be quite lucrative for the freelance writer with good discipline and the ability to write compelling copy on any number of subjects or for very specific purposes.  There are many niches out there that a good writer can take advantage of these days.  Whether you are interested in being a guest blogger on someone’s website, to writing a daily column on your favorite televisions shows, there is something for you!

There are several ways I’ve found you can get paid to write from the sources online.   You can be paid an up-front flat fee for the work you produce.   Some sites will pay you per word for the accepted articles.

Then others, pay you a pay-per-click rate, based upon the number of readers that you draw to a particular article.  Some will also kick in performance bonuses based on the traffic an article draws. Some sites offer more than one payment option, depending on their needs.
