Because you shouldn't have to leave the house to generate income.
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 […]
I’ve been writing for Blogmutt since December 20, 2013 and almost instantly, they were my #1 favorite place to log into. Their behind-the-scenes format is so easy to work with. Instead of blowing their horn here on my website, I’m going to send you directly over to Blogmutt via some links to posts I wrote […]
Roundup articles are a little like “freebies” for web content writers. Presumably you’ve been writing in the same niche for a while and have several articles about a few very precise topics. A roundup article is basically a compilation of all those articles, with links to several of them. An example of one of my […]
Almost a year ago, I wrote about my Suite101 earnings, because one writer made $5000 in a month and they finally told us we were allowed to discuss our income. I’m revisiting that topic this year because the industry has changed a little, so have my earnings and my writing habits and Suite101’s best practices […]
On writer’s message boards, occasionally someone new will ask seasoned writers about our process. What steps do we go through in the writing process, to write fast web copy that (hopefully) doesn’t suck? The process that works for me is so different from what I’m being asked to do in school (did I mention I’m […]
So, much to my surprise, I’m currently registered as a writer at Demand Studios. Again. If you don’t know the back story, here’s a link to the drama: OMG I got fired from DS When Eve originally informed me of their decision, I sent a response, stating my side of the story. I sent a note […]
I use a mini laptop, so I don’t have a lot of screen space. In exchange, I get to take my computer everywhere my busy lifestyle needs me. I have six kids who are always wanting to go to a friend’s house, to tap dancing classes, jazz, singing, drama, the library, girl scouts, science club, […]
I mentioned this spreadsheet the other day in a post called “If you’ve been writing online for over a year, do this NOW.” BUT… your life as a web writer would be so much easier if you didn’t wait until you’ve been writing a year to use this form. Imagine… you publish a mere 1 […]
OK, this one isn’t new and I can’t even say that it’s new to me. I signed up for Constant Content apparently in November of 2008. I’m not sure what the process was like (is it a sign-up or an application? I don’t remember) All I know is that I kept getting these emails every […]
Since such a lot of my website’s traffic seems to be for the term “writers weekly” I felt that it was important for me to distance myself professionally from Angela Hoy. She has a vendetta against webwriters. She repeatedly publishes articles calling all internet writing sites “content mills” and declaring, one after another, that they’re […]
