Freelance Writer Jobs on Constant Content

If you have been on the prowl for more - and more profitable - freelance writing gigs, you may want to look into Constant Content if you haven't already. Constant Content is another marketplace housing freelance writer jobs but differs in a major way from many other outlets.

Explaining the Constant Content system

The great thing about Constant Content, and the major way that it differs from other places with freelance writing opportunities, is that you can set your own prices. There are recommended guidelines, however you can set prices as high or as low as you please.

In addition, there are three levels of rights that you can sell with your articles, all of which serve to expand your options while potentially opening up the door for repeat sales of the same, high quality content.

The three rights levels are Usage, Unique and Full Rights. When someone purchases an article on the Usage level, they can use your article but cannot change it at all and must leave your byline intact. Additionally, other people can continue purchasing the article.

At the intermediate Unique level, the client purchases the right to change the article and remove your byline, however you can still continue selling it to other customers. Finally, at the Full Rights level, a client can do as they please with the article while ensuring that nobody else can buy the same material.

The recommended prices for a 300-500 word article sold at the Usage level is $10 to $25. At the Unique level, it's $30 to $60 and at the Full Rights level, it's $40 to $80. Clearly these are much better prices then you can find with the majority of other websites offering freelance writing opportunities. In addition to selling articles, you can also sell your photos and videos as well.

How does it work?

The way the freelance writer jobs work on Constant Content is that they have a public request system that clients can use to request articles. You can then write up a fresh piece of content and submit it, or you can offer up a piece of content you already have to the request. In addition, you can bypass the request system and store as many articles in the system as you please, allowing them to be found by clients who are searching for available content.

I signed up for the site and then didn't use it for several months. However, after receiving an email about a public request that seemed easy enough, I wrote up an article and submitted it.

Two days later it got approved by the site and the client accepted it. The end result was that I made an easy $45 sale (for which I received $29.25, as you receive 65% of the price you set, which is important to keep in mind when setting your prices). A few days later I tackled another public request, and sold an article for $50, bringing in a quick $32.50. You can view the image at the top of this article for verification of those prices and the recent articles I wrote.

I cannot yet speak to the open marketplace and how effective that is for selling articles that you created without a specific request in mind. However, I'd imagine that if you can establish a presence with multiple articles in a popular niche, it could become an easy way to sell and distribute your work. Either way, I'm 2 for 2 in responding to requests and brought in an easy $60 for just two articles.
