Freelance Writing and Blogging Jobs

Blogging and Writing articles on the web is becoming an extremely lucrative hobby. There are hundreds of successful bloggers who earn thousands of dollars from blogging.

Are you looking for opportunities to earn money online by writing articles? Here is a list of options that you have.

1. Freelance Writing Jobs: Freelance writing jobs are assignments where you make money per assignment. A person who does freelancing is called a freelancer. The advantage of freelance writing jobs is that you can start making money immediately as opposed to building a website or your own blog. The disadvantage, however, is that you do not make ongoing revenue from the articles you have written. Search more freelance writing jobs.

3. Making Money by writing your own blog: In the long run writing articles from which you earn ongoing revenue is perhaps the best income option you have. Once you have a blog you can monetize it using Google Adsense, or even take advantage of Paid Blogging Networks like Pay Per Post in order to get paid for writing paid reviews. It is possible (realistically) to earn anywhere between $100 to $600 per month or even more if you have a decent page rank and established blog. I recommend you to try this if you have already have a blog. The advantage of writing for your own self is that you get ongoing revenue for articles you have written. So even if you are on a vacation, you blog will keep earning money for you. It is better than freelance writing jobs in the long run. Read a detailed guide on how to make money blogging.
   
4. Making money by writing for Hubpages: Hubpages also gives opportunities for writers to earn money. It is Let me give you an example. I have written this article on investing. For the size of such an article you would typically get paid one time - anywhere between $5 to $10. However, that is just one time payment. In contrast to that I have already earned $4 in this month from the clicks i recieved on the ads served on that article. Hubpages has the advantage that you get ongoing revenue for the articles you have written, and if you write decent articles you do not even have to wait in order for your site to be established. You also have variety of income options like Google Adsense, earning commission by selling related Amazon products or Ebay products, serving Kontera ads, etc. Take a tour of hubpages to learn more.
5. Paid Writing and Income Opportunities on eHow and Squidoo: Similar to Hubpages, you can also write and earn money on eHow and Squidoo. There are however some differences. On eHow you can only write articles which deal with "How to" topics. Although the money you can earn by writing on eHow is perhaps comparable or slightly more than the money you can earn on hubpages, writing on Hubpages is an enjoyable experience. On Squidoo, the experience of writing is certainly as enjoyable as Hubpages, but it is known that articles writte on Hubpages ususally rank better. However Squidoo allows adult content and if you are interested in writing articles on adult topics then perhaps squidoo is the place you want to be. Otherwise I recommend Hubpages.
