4 Unique Web Sites that Pay You to Write

Marsha J
If you love writing and want to use it to make a living from home, or as a way to augment your regular salary, it's not hard to find tons of websites that you could get paid to be a writer. Below are a few websites that you don't hear too much about, but they may offer different ways to make money online as a writer.

Feed Village - At this website you can submit articles for free and the revenue from those articles will go to charity or you can get paid to write at Feed Village. The revenue that you will receive is and is not based on page views. It is based on page views because the more traffic the website makes overall, the more of a percentage of ad money there will be to share with all of the writers. It is not completely based on just page views because the more articles you write per month, the bigger the share of the money you will receive.

Niche Blast - Unlike some of the other websites, Niche Blast has a system that lists a few articles that a site is willing to pay for. Once you request to write the article and you are accepted, you will have two days to write the 350 word and submit it to be reviewed. Your first few articles will receive $4 and if you write over 40, you may be able to get up to $6.75 per article. You can only receive three articles at a time to write.

Informative Post - Another paid to write website, this one will pay completely based on page views and what they call AP ratings. AP stands for Author Priority and the higher the rating, the more money that you will be able to make. An AP with a rank of 250 or lower can only make up to $1 per 1000, but a rank of 2000 to 5000 will make up to $5. A high Author Priority rating also has a few extra perks such as getting your articles reviewed quicker than those with a low rating. You also have a higher chance of getting published in a shorter amount of time.

Looking for Clues - A nice website to sell your articles for great pay is Looking for Clues. They buy articles and pay $10 to $30 for each article. To get your article sold on LFC they do have a few rules for you to follow such as:

* Article is 800 to 1600 words
* 6 to 12 Paragraphs
* Premiere Paypal Account if you want to get paid correctly
* Articles have to be fresh and not already found online

To know what articles they are paying for, Looking for Clues suggests that you check out their categories before you write and submit an article. Articles also need to have a personal touch from you.

    I was wondering what is Feed Village's website. You did not put it down and when I went to do a search, it did not come up.
