If you haven’t tried writing articles for Associated Content, then I suggest that you can also give it a try.

Go to associated content.com, Sign up. You'll need to either use your real name or a pen name for your articles.

If you haven't already signed up for Paypal, visit www.paypal.com to get an account. You will be paid through paypal when your articles are published. You can be paid via check, put paypal is alot quicker and easier.

To write and publish articles, sign into your account and click on "publish."

Here there are three catergories 

(1) Exclusive: The writers can submit their original, unpublished, articles for acceptance to earn an “upfront payment”. If accepted for publication after editorial scrutiny (which will take 1 to 2 weeks), the writer will get anywhere from 3 to 12 dollars per accepted article. Accepted articles cannot be published elsewhere by the writer and cannot be deleted from the site. Associated Content may also distribute the articles with its partners.

These articles are also eligible for “performance payment” (i.e. regular earning of pennies based on page-views they get) on a continuous basis.

(2) Non-exclusive: Here too, only original, unpublished, articles are accepted and are eligible for upfront payments, but the difference is that the writer is free to re-publish it anywhere else. Posted articles can not be deleted from Associated Content and the articles are automatically eligible for earning performance payment regularly. Sharing of articles with AC Partners is optional.

(3) Performance-Payment only: In this category, any qualified writer can post any number of articles freely and all such articles can earn performance payment. The articles need not be unpublished ones. The author is at liberty to delete his articles and also re-post his articles in any other site. Articles rejected for upfront payment too can be posted under this category.

Then, Follow the template to submit the article. For most articles, you will be paid between $3.00 and $20.00. I average about $4.50 for each article. however, the more views you get, the higher your payment goes, it an go has high as $2.00 for 1000 clicks. Remember, this is in addition to upfront payments.

You can write on just about anything. Share advice, tips, or reviews of restaurants, vacation spots and more.

It takes about a week (usually less) for your article to be reviewed and to receive payment.
