Making Money as a Freelance Writer

I'm sorry it's been a month since I updated this blog. I've been busy writing. I took my first payout three weeks ago, it was for 100 bucks. since then, i've made close to a hundred bucks per week just doing part time freelance. I know it's not enough to pay all the bills, but it's one heck of a good start towards what I want to do, which is to quit the 9 to 5 rat race.

I know there will be small challenges, i'm facing one right now, but with perserverence, you really can make money out of nothing online. It's really true! I can hardly believe it myself.

You Really Can Make Money Online!

I'm sorry I haven't posted in here for the last week. A lot has happened. I made my first bit of money online since starting this blog, about $45 bucks. A forum posting site was a little late with my payment, but they did pay. Also, I was introduced to something called "content writing". You write articles for various clients on a variety of subjects, and they pay you money!

Forty five dollars is what I have been paid, but I have about sixty five more coming my way as of right now. I know it's not enough to make a living from, but it's a positve step towards that goal! I'm really excited.

I did have to take a wage paying job, but as my writing income keeps growing, I think this will be temporary.

How much money can you make online?

It's been about a week since I posted in here, and I wanted to give an update.

The site where I was supposed to get paid per post, for posting on message boards hasn't paid me yet. I've made about 35 bucks there.

On EBay, I don't have anything worth listing there.

The site I joined where I get paid to post ads on my other blog is going well. I've made $8.50 for one post, but it's been hard to find posts I qualify for. I won't get paid the $8.50 for about a month.

The paid to review site was a washout for me, they don't want to pay more than 40 cents per movie review, and they are worth more than that to me. I've made about $6.80 there, but I'll never see it because it's a $50 payout.

So, I should have about 43 bucks coming to me, but I haven't got it yet. I've found that making money online is not an overnight thing, it's something you have to work at.

Get Paid to Write? Rough First Week

When you lose your job, most folks go on unemployment to help with stuff until they can find another one. When the unemployment runs out, they dip into the savings to mostly buy gas in order to find employment. What happens after that? Well, things start getting shut off. I lost my cable last week, Internet services may be soon to follow.

I have joined a couple of money for post/review sites, but one seems to pay only when they feel like it, and the other one I'm not sure about, so I will have to withhold judgement.

I did find a blog site that has been helpful and honest, and I have linked it to the right. Am I going to make it? I don't know, I started this blog to document my progress, and so far I've made a little headway, but I still haven't made anything.

Find E-Bay Inventory Cheap and re-sell for Huge Profits!

Ok, So I will tell you the truth. While I was doing research for how to make money online I noticed something. The gurus who teach you how to make money online seem to have made their money by teaching you how to make money. I didn't know how to make the big money, but I got an idea. If I were to start a blog about how to make money online, then I would soon find myself swimming in money! One problem though, I haven't really made any money. I've made some mind you, I've turned some good profits on E-Bay but not enough to live off of.

Try this experiment. Whatever you are interested in on E-Bay, intentionally misspell the word in it's search engine. For example, if you are interested in baseball cards, type in baseball cars. You might find a rare gem that you can buy for a reasonable price and sell for a big profit.

If anyone out there would like to hire me, I am available. If there are any Internet money gurus reading this who think they can turn me into a success story and profile me on their site, then post here and I will consider it.
