Write to Earn

The number one best way I have found to make a good living off of web writing is to make sure that you not only get a flat fee, but that you also get residual income. Many times, the residual income adds up to being more than your flat fee.

To get a residual income freelance job, look for jobs that offer a flat fee and a cut of the ad revenue or payment for page views.

For example, when I started with Demand Studios I got $15 per article (around 10 a week) and an additional payment from page views through their eHow’s Writer Compensation Program. They got rid their pay + revenue plan a while back, but I am still receiving around $70 a month for the articles that are sitting at eHow. (You can see the terms of eHow’s Writer Compensation Program here .)

Where do you find these fantastic jobs? Well, here is one to get you started. Bright Hub is looking for technology writers. The articles are approximately 300-750 words at $10 each in addition to future revenue sharing based on it’s popularity. Here is how to apply .
