I’m going to start with a caveat… and that’s that content mills are really great for beginners. Right now, I’m a little bit of a beginner again. I’m not working TOO HARD to secure private clients because I’m trying to focus on my fiction writing. That said- my fiction royalties aren’t enough to live on yet […]

Pet Peeve About my Fellow Writers
Is it ethical to use my own website to complain about people who might be readers? I say “Yes, as long as it’s constructive.” I also think I might have just quoted myself in real-time for the first time ever. Do people do that? I guess I do. So here’s the thing: Stop Wasting Your […]
Pay Yourself First
I always get annoyed when I find myself devoting a lot of time writing for other people’s websites. The pay isn’t fantastic, but I research my keywords and make sure that the job is well done. I know that the people paying me will end up making more in the long run than I am […]
Oona, Jessica, Kerrie, Kay, Samantha, Serfronya, Susan, Oleg, Kimberly and Emma
This is for you. At some point in time, you signed up for PayPerPost under one of my referral codes. As luck may have it, they have recently raised my referral credit from $7.50 to $15.00 now, having a few $7.50 potential referral fees sitting idle is one thing, but having TEN $15.00 referral fees […]
Another place to get paid for quickies
Felicia wrote about Niner Niner a few weeks ago. Go take a peek, I’m not sure how they determine whether a 150 word post is a ten center or a fifty center. I would definitely never try making a living at that rate, but I’d definitely use it to create links to other work and […]
Review: PayMeToBlogAboutYou
This site is really hard to use. Their interface is really ridiculous. I’ve worked a few posts for them, but honestly, I just don’t understand why each job shows up in ten places. And when the job is over, shouldn’t it disappear or something? I don’t know. I don’t like this site. I’m thinking this […]
Review: BloggingAds
I am simply not cool enough for this website. They require a minimum pagerank of 2/10 and I’m a big fat zero. The site looks nice, it looks like it’s laid out well. They pay weekly and the do happen to have some nice articles about how to write a quality blog that you can […]
Review: Smorty
I haven’t spent much time on the Smorty website. They have a unique program for exchanging reviews with other bloggers on the site. It’s a great idea, but I caution you to make sure you’re reviewing sites you’d normally discuss on your site. If you’re a blogger who usually discusses types of turtles, turtle care […]
Review: BuyBlogReviews.com
This site has grown a lot since I first joined. There are several opportunities listed. It takes a little longer to get work here than it does through PayPerPost. With BuyBlogReviews, you must bid on each job. It’s not rocket Science, they tell you what the minimum bid is and you get to bid over […]
Review: PayPerPost
When I first started working online I made most of my money through PayPerPost. Websites (including blogs) are “graded” by Google on a scale of zero to ten. The higher your grade, or PageRank, the more companies want their name on your blog. However, if their company isn’t one you’d normally be writing about (you […]
