Make Money Writing Articles

Just 2 days ago, I was paid USD95.80 from a web site that offers written articles for clients and work for writters. I signed up in October and slowly accumulate my earnings up to over USD90 in a month. That means I have been writing articles on a daily basis upon signing and logging in. After entering my TIN - Tax Identification Number, I finally got paid to my Paypal. Yay! So now that I know the system works and will check and login every day for new job offers. And I was lucky to chance upon this brilliant web site using my Google Alerts to inform me based in keyword search. With plenty of time in my hands, I get to moon light writing articles to earn some pocket money. And this arrangement works very well for me indeed.

Time for some recreation



After working hard over the week, it is time for some relaxation and recreation - www.partofthegame.tv, a web-TV for football that you can view in your free time. Yesterday, I got an offer to write 7 articles but turned it down as I was still feeling drowsy from taking a cough mixture. I am having a heaty cough and cound not concentrate on work. Hence instead of working, I just relaxed and enjoyed my time being carefree just like a child. No worries about making making or anything of that sort but to seize the moment and be stress free.

Continue with Writing Articles

Today, my former client emailed me for an article to write on Tax Avoidance. It is about 500 words paying USD8 per article or USD1.5 cents per word. I took it up because it pays more than the normal rate compared to a freelancer's web site where you have to bid for very low paying writing jobs. If this works out well, I could be writing an article a day for him and he pays promptly right after I submit my work. So far, he is happy with my writings and there are hardly any revisions unlike other fussy clients. I am also bidding for a job to convert to PDF and add images to the contents. In this tough financial times, the little work that comes along are most welcomed from the States.

It is not easy to make money these days

It is so easy to spend money but to earn it is not easy at all. Not in this economic meltdown that is affecting the world globally with looming recession on the cards. Some bloggers even noticed a drop in their Adsense earnings and this does not auger well for making money online. With more people being retrenched, will they ever turn to the internet for solution and read blogs? Will there be a drop in online traffic? I don't know but still cling on to my part time venture blogging in my free time. The key now in these economic crunch is this : A penny saved is a penny earned - so don't spend on impulse and it is time to save whatever we have to brace ourselves for hard times.

Time for Austerity Drive

With gloomy news everywhere and press reports of USA economic crunch and impending global recession, it is time to herald austerity measures in our lives. Share markets continue to tumble down in bearish run for the past few days. So, how can we save money in this financial difficulties? Eat out less often and buy only when really necessary. Don't buy on impulse and every cent that you saved is a cent that is earned. You might like to consider working from home if you are retrenched or your company closed down. I was reading the newspaper yesterday and a big toy company retrenched its 7,000 workers in China which depended heavily on US markets in its toy making products. So, you have been warned. Prepare for the worst and don't simply spend money.

Going to KL on Thursday

This week coming Thursday, I will be going to KL with my colleague for business. We will meet up with some clients before driving back to Penang. I hope to drive around Kota Damansara surveying the neighbourhood as this is a high end place to rent and stay. You can find shopping lots downstairs your condominium in a few blocks and this makes it very convenient. Tesco, The Curve, IKEA, plus many other shopping areas are nearby which is central for buying stuffs and dining. I happen to discover this place by chance recently when we had to meet up with one of our potential clients for tennis court project. I hope they have Thai food somewhere around.

Writing more Articles

I have been upgraded from a 3-star writer to 4-star writer. The maximum is 5-star for professional writers. As a 3-star writer, I can earn about 1 cent usd per word, for 2-star, the amount is 0.7 cent per word while for 4-star, it is 1.4 cents per word. The earnings increase as your ratings go up. This new site is easy to use - just log in and check how many assignments there are with the star ratings. Note that a 3-star rating writer cannot write assignments for 4-star writers, but 4-star writers can write on 3-star assignments. Hence, if you are writing an article of 500 words, you can earn USD7 as a 4-star writer.
