Turning Your Writing Gene Into Money

I wish I had the writer genes in me so that I will not need to spend so much time writing a simple article. However, if you are a talented writer why not use your gift to make money online?

You probably know that article writing has been one of the best ways to promote one’s blog or website. In addition to that, it also provides you an opportunity to earn additional revenue.

One of the major factors why certain website has more readers than others is because of the site contents. If your website has high quality contents there will be high chances that the first time readers will turn to be regular readers. Your website popularity will be promoted by the readers themselves. That is why quality content writers are much sought out in the web.

Here are some ways where by your writing will generate you money online. Of course there are many more out there, but here are some of the sites:

1) Helium
Over at Helium, there are literally thousands of writers that share their expertise on any topics. You can either learn from the wide base of articles there or share your knowledge with others. The best part is that you get paid for your articles. The higher your article rank the more money you will earn. In addition to that you will also get paid if your article attract more readers that other articles.

Another feature about Helium is that they offer upfront payment for qualified writers ranging from 0.50 to 2.50 per article submitted per month. Of course this upfront payment depends on your rating as well. The higher your “stars”, the higher the payment.

2) The Associate Content
Associate Content basically offer the same services as Helium does. The more article you submit and get approved, the more you money you will make. They too offer upfront payments ranging from $1 to $20 depending on topic or contents. However you must be a US citizen to be entitled for upfront payments.
Writers of Associate Content basically make money through performance payments. Basically the writers will earn money for every thousand page views of your articles, videos , slideshows, etc. The baseline amount per 1000 views is current at $1.50.

3) The Article Sense
The Article Sense (TAS) can be considered as a huge blog will thousands of authors. The writers earn money through a very different method compared to Helium or Associate Content. They make money through Adsense.

In order to fully benefit from TAS you must have an existing Adsense account. Whenever a reader views your article, your Adsense advert will be displayed on the top right of the article. Therefore if you article is has more readers, the higher the chance for someone to click on your advert.
