Get Paid for Articles

Many of you have probably visited Associate Content at least once or twice by now. What you may not have known is you actually get PAID for those articles. Yes, I’m that far behind on the times and I just now realized this.

Actually I’m not one that jumps right into the “latest and greatest” things. I know some do and that’s fine, but it’s not for me. I like to sit back and watch how it all plays out before I get myself involved.  So whenever I see “Brand new! Check this out…..” I tend to tune out the rest. Lead with “This has been out for awhile and here’s my results…”, then I’m paying full attention.

I really do like the idea, and it’s a pay-per-view type of deal. I can’t say their payout is better than what I normally make on any give page of Idea Queen, but since they don’t mind articles you’ve already published… hey why not?  Granted I don’t think I can put my links in like I would a normal article, but again that’s alright. It’s just one more way I can use that content I’ve already written to make a few bucks. Plus of course they have the whole community thing going on making it a nice place to network.

I also see this as a nice outlet for writing pieces that just don’t fit any of my sites. You know the stuff that you just KNOW your audience couldn’t care less about, but you feel like writing something anyway. Hey if it’s a good topic, why not?

Here’s an idea that just hit me - how about those sites you spend a lot of time on (or money too), but they don’t have an affiliate program? I can think of a few I’m around quite a bit and would recommend a lot more if they had an affiliate program. So that would be perfect to write about - sites which average moms probably wouldn’t care about (and yes I’ll admit what it is - I like online games!), but those surfing around Associated Content might. Why not make some money off my experiences there?

I guess what I like most about this site is the fact it’s pay per view. You don’t get paid unless people are interested enough to actually look at your article. The better you write, the more people will look at your other articles, and the more money you make. So it’s not just a flat rate deal, but a chance to make quite a bit of money based on how skilled you are.

So I’m giving this a shot. If I really like it, you’ll be hearing more about this from me!

Unfortunately, they only pay residents of the United States, so I’ll have to miss out this time!

Thank you for the wonderful tip! I’m new to writing articles so this will be a very good place to “practice”.

Hopefully they will pay to outside the US soon so more can participate. I can understand why they proceed with caution on that though.

Yes, it is a very good place to “practice”, and to toss all your “odd” articles to. ;)
