Writing and Making Money with HowToDoThings.com

Aiden of the Tower
When deciding that you would like to begin making money online there is an overwhelming amount of options and many of them feel suspicious. Some sound too good to be true and often are, but there are some great options for making money online. The one that I recommend the most is making money from your writing. There are many sites that will share revenue or give money to you based on how well your writing does. One such place is HowToDoThings.com where you can write how to articles.

The Math.
Because many want to know how they can begin making money online the math is a good place to start. With HowToDoThings.com it is really simple. You write how to articles which get put on their site. Google AdSense ads are placed on the site. Fifty percent of the time they are your Google AdSense ads and fifty percent of the time they are HowToDoThings.com's ads. Every time someone clicks on one of your ads you will be making money from your how to articles.

The Writing.
There are a wide range of topics that can be written on. You will have to apply to be an expert in whatever categories you desire to write in. Maybe you are a mom or dad and have experience in parenting. You can then write how to articles that share your knowledge. On your application you will share with the editors your experience that makes you an expert in your area. Once you have applied and been accepted (should take up to one week) you can begin to write articles for their site.

There are only a few rules. All articles have to be how to articles and they have to be worded such that it is "How to..." do something. These articles need to be written in a step-by-step format. You will even number those steps 1-3 or more.

Publishing.
Getting your writing published on HowToDoThings.com isn't very hard. You will want to click the "write" button to be brought to their format page. If you click "write" then it will be a boxed format where you will fill in the boxes to create an article that is literally step by step. If you click "write an article" from your dashboard you will be brought to an older format and you will be writing your article in one large box. This format gives you a lot more editing and formating options, but still needs to be written in a one, two, three type of format.

The Whole Process.
Once you have submitted your article it will be reviewed by an editor. This can take up to two weeks and is sometimes a long wait. During this time you can write other articles, but you won't be making money from the ones that you wrote first until it is published. The editor will do one of three things. They will either publish your how to article, ask for revisions and let you know why, or reject the article. You can then take action accordingly.

This site has a lot of potential for making a nice amount of money from how to articles. Your writing should still be of high quality and you should still promote your work, but there is a lot of natural traffic on this site and it does work in favor of the writer. Your writing will get seen and you will start making money within a week or so of being published. Over time you can write additional articles. The more articles you have the more money you will make from it each month.
