Like MySpace and YouTube, Associated Content users provide the articles and videos featured on the site. However, Associated Content users are paid a nominal up-front amount (typically between $3 - $15) for each article and video that they submit. In addition, page view bonuses are now paid, with current bonus payment rates being $1.50 per 1000 page views. Content Producers (as users are known) can submit as little or as much work for review as they wish, and are paid for their contributions after publishing via Paypal, making this a legitimate work-from-home opportunity.
No, you most likely won't be able to make a living from this legitimate work-from-home opportunity (although a few Content Producers do submit a lot of work and make a decent amount of money). However, there are other benefits to writing and providing videos to Associated Content. First, it can help you to start your career in freelance writing through helping you to improve your writing skills, as well as gain ideas for what to write about. Associated Content will also introduce you to others who are in your same situation - those who want a legitimate work-from-home opportunity and are on the lookout for other legitimate work-from-home opportunities. Other work-from-home opportunities (and scams) are often identified on the site's bulletin boards for your information.
So, what has my experience with Associated Content been like? Well, over the past four months, I have submitted over 60 articles and have averaged payment of $8.00 per article (yes - I have been paid on-time - like I said, this really is a legitimate work-from-home opportunity). I'm learning what generates page views (for me, it's local content, tax advice, and sports) and what doesn't generate page views (articles that are too general and offer no real advice). I have submitted work to several magazines and have had three pieces accepted already. Freelance writing has become a legitimate work-from-home opportunity for me, with Associated Content being a way for me to launch my new career.
