So You Love to Write
There is a huge potential in earning as much as fifteen dollars for three hours over the internet. One advantage of writers or those who have the skills to write is that they can offer their services to site, blog and even forum owners.
Potential Clients
Website Owners - Website owners sometimes outsource their contents since they have a lot of other things to do. They tend to concentrate more on marketing and link building, and that is where writers come in. Writers make webmasters life easier by providing quality content for them
Blog Owners - Some blogs are created so that owners can monetize from it. They did some keyword research and have targeted some topics and find it profitable and what they need are quality contents. You can also offer your service in providing them contents for their blogs.
Get Paid to Write Networks - These GPT write networks offer approved bloggers to write articles for them providing a visible link and with a minimum number of words per article.
What you Need
Paypal Account - This is the method of payment for most of GPT’s. Registration is free, verify your account and you are ready to accept payments for your hard work
Writing Skills - duh?!
A blog - this is actually optional, but this would be your portfolio that you would want to show your potential clients how you write. A blog would serve as a sample for your work. You can create one for free, try Blogger and put up a site today.
It is true that Content is King, so why not take advantage of the demand to this kind of service. This is easy money. The more you write, the more you would have moolah. Let us say, you receive a five dollar payment for an article, make that three articles per day and you get fiifteen ($15) . that would be a good side money for just a couple of hours.
Hit me back if I have missed something, want to ask something or just wanted to say hello.
Ps. If you wanted to start now, I have seen a post wherein they are actually looking for writers for their site, just let me know if you are interested.
1 commentTo Write or Not Write
“Oh my God, I my grammar sucks,” “Oh dear, I cant understand what I wrote,” or “Damn! I can’t write.”
These are some lines a neophyte writers have in mind.

I have blogged about a hundred topics since I was in college, I deleted some but the first journal or blog I ever made is still up, ofcourse not updated but, it is still online. I even used my own native language and some taglish on the sides. Anyhoo, I rather not share the site’s url because it only had one topic, and that is about my ex-girlfriend. Lame, I know but hey, that was not only a start, but that was THE start.
I am struggling writer myself and I try to enhance my writing skills by blogging some of my favorite topics over the internet atleast every other day. Now, If you are a neophyte writer, and is having second thoughts in trying to do blogging, try to digest this information.
Any Person Can Write
I admired those writers who would let their readers read it the second time or more just to understand what the former is trying to express. I remember back then when I really urged myself to write something that a few could understand. I was wrong. Why would I try to create an article wherein other people could have a hard time understanding what I wrote? The point here is that, you do not need to have a noble-prize-winner article for you to publish, you should only have fully expressed what you really wanted to say. You can elaborate it and make it a five-hundred-word entry OR you could also digest it with just a few lines. It is really up to you.
It is never too late
It is never too late to start, you could always start today. Just keep on writing what is on your mind and time will come you are doing pretty dang so well, you are doing some freelance writing works already.
And last but not the least, Dont Quit.. Just Dont.
2 commentsHundred Miles or More
Last week, I started to to do brisk walking within our area with the purpose of trying to get in shape again. I am a bit out of shape lately because of the holiday gain. I have been eating more than my regular diet since last month. The weather is not that cold anymore and it is a great time to do some walking before reviewing and doing some online work.
Here is a snapshot of the path I am taking everyday. The walk would take about forty five minutes and has an approximate one mile back and forth.

Not bad eh?! I am trying to break a personal record of a hundred mile or more for one year. Wish me luck. now back to regular programming.
