I'm beginning to write on the net to earn online. But I don't know good websites. I've heard of freelancing sites but I'm absolutely new so I doubt I'll be able to get a job.
Where shall I begin writing? Is there any article directory which pays for article submission?
Thanks for a any help.

There are often writing projects on rentacoder, getafreelancer, elance, guru, getacoder. A lot of them pay peanuts though.

If you want to write for $3 a pop, go to those sites and others, like AssociatedContent.com, etc.

But if you want to write articles for websites that pay go to http://www.worldwidefreelance.com/ - they have a huge database of paying markets.

Start with the low-paying ones (under 50 cents per word) to build your experience and confidence, then work your way up to the ones that pay over $1 per word.

Good luck!

Diane

We are very well aware that writing a dissertation is not a piece of cake. But our special team of writers can make it as easy as ABC. It is the essential and one of the most fundamental projects of students though not difficult, but not as simple either. Real Research writing sees that each and every detail is covered when it comes to dissertation so that the student may accomplish their academic goal with flying colours.

I think I know why ColbyGriffin got banned !!
Anyway, thanks Ditryin and gringo for your advice. I've checked GAF and Elance, now I'll check the others.

Ditryin, I tried Associated content but I found out that they don't pay upfront payments on articles written by people outside US. I'm not from the US so I'll receive payment from traffic to my article, which isn't sufficient.
Is there any other site which pays upfront payment for articles?
I also checked the worldwidefreelance website, its good, but the problem is, most markets are US based...........so I'll have to search vigorously for any site which pays for e-mail submission and which pays via paypal.

You'll find that most paying markets (think online magazines, like Salon.com) don't pay up front. They pay on acceptance or after publication. If you're looking for quick, easy money, that might not be the way to go. But if you're looking to become a freelance writer, than that is the way to go.

If you write good, well-written articles, publishers will work with you. I used to have a bi-weekly newsletter and paid $50 per article and I once sent an AMEX travelers check to India, so... There are publishers who will accommodate.

[See why I won't write for $3 a pop!?? ]

I find myself on the other side of this (trying to find writers).

Unfortunately for me, with the type of content I'm looking for, those able to write it, are usually employed with a hefty salary. My $100/article offer just isn't enticing enough (even to those in lower cost of living countries). I can't really offer more because, (with current stats) it takes about 12 months for the content to recover its cost.

No!! I didn't mean that!
I didn't mean that I don't want to write for online magazines.
I just said that I didn't want to write for sires that pay according to the traffic to a particular article, like triond.
Hey Willcode4beer!! You really give 100$/article!
How long do the articles have to be, I'm willing to work!

OOPS!!
I don't know javascript so I can't write for you.
Maybe in a year or so I may become a Javascript coder then I can help you out.

I just have one thing to say. Bear in mind that writing for others and then getting paid is a one-off reward. If your passion really lies on writing, the best way is to create your own site and then earn from there.

Go to Digital Point and advertise there your services. That would be a good start to build up a portfolio.

The problem with most, if not all of these ad boards is they scam thousands of writers for fees on the sheer hope that they might actually get work.

Design your own site or blog and make sure people know you are available for a fee.

Or get out your visa card, sign up at all these sites and cross your fingers,
your toes and your eyeballs.

You can get writing jobs at www.freelancewriting.com. Try listing your articles in freelancer sites like getafreelancer.com.
