Another Place to Make Side Money Online Writing Articles

Last blog I talked to you about how to make money with Info Barrel. Today, I have another place that shares cash made from your published articles. Again, the premise here is you write articles for an established website and they share some of the advertising money with you. In the online world, advertising is everything – we’re talking BILLIONS of dollars.

The money you can expect to make with article writing depends. Some people make $1 per month while others make $50 to $500 or even a few make more than that. The reason these big money making article writers make so much money is because they don’t half ass the articles. They write long, 500 to 1000 word articles and promote them by linking back to them from forum signatures, their facebook and myspace account, and blog comments. The more links and discussion about well written and helpful articles, the more people are going to see your page and ultimately your revenue will increase.

If this sounds like work, well it is. But here are the good parts. First, you can write about something you like or know a lot about. This is going to make a long article so much more enjoyable and easy to write. Let’s take an example. Say you like making handmade jewelry and it’s your favorite hobby. With your insider knowledge about beading and jewelry making, you could write an article helping them understand how to make good looking jewelry from home.

This goes for any topic. If you just bought a 40 inch LCD TV, you could write about your research and tell people about the best prices on HD TVs, what is the best size to get, who has the highest quality TVs, where to shop, what TVs have the least glare, and etc. By sharing this unique knowledge, you’re going to save other people buying a TV time and possibly money. This again means you’ll receive more attention to you article if you can get other people talking about it. More attention = more money for you.

Another good part about making money from article writing is the sites you’re writing for are already established. This means they will naturally get some decent search engine rankings to help you be found when people search for the topics. This would not happen were you to start a new website on your own. Plus, if you help by linking to the article and getting other people to link, you’ve really got the ball rolling.

A third advantage to writing articles online for money is once you’ve published your article, you’re done and you’ll continue to have the ability to make money from that article forever and ever. 5 years from now, you’ll still be able to collect money from that one time effort you made back in January, 2010. How about that for passive income?

Last, I just want to leave you with this: Would you rather have a regular job struggling to make a few bucks after hours on end of working or make easy money from your living room writing articles?  I’d rather be on my couch with money electronically crediting in my bank account at all times of night.  But hey, that’s just me.  Of course, the beauty is you can do both.  Keep your job money and create a second source of home income through the Internet by just writing about what you love.

Now that you’ve got those money making juices flowing, get started. There’s absolutely no reason why you can’t publish and start to earn right now. Write about stuff you love and you might actually enjoy some of it. The new article place I wanted to tell you about is called Hub Pages.

Hub Pages is basically the same concept as making money with Info Barrel.  You write an article and Google Ads will be placed on your article page.  The awesome thing about Hub Pages is they have great natural search engine rankings.  Again, you can write about virtually anything as long as it’s not adult, gambling, or stuff like that.

To give you an example of how big clicks get, I once received a $6 ad click from an article (Yes this was $6 all because someone just clicked 1 tiny ad – nothing else).  This doesn’t happen every day, but does show you that it’s possible to make real money being an article writer.  Oh yes, and everything I’m showing you is absolutely free to sign up for and legit.  There’s no get a free laptop stuff or pay just $9.99 a month.  Just a free sign up and registration and you’re ready to go.  Here is the links to Hub Pages and Info Barrel sign up pages if you’re interested in getting started right now.
