3 Legitimate Writing Sites--Free to Join and You Get Paid

People are scouring the Internet looking for ways to earn extra money. This article takes a look at three legitimate writing sites that pay you for your words.

Sites that charge a one-time fee or a monthly fee simply don't cut it for those who need to make money, over spending money to get started.

Three Legitimate Sites That Pay

HubPages

HubPages allows non-techies to easily create pages or Hubs. You monetize your pages with Ebay and Amazon product capsules and you earn from Google AdSense advertising that appears on your HubPages. A recent additon to the HubPages revenue stream is the addition of Kontera text link ads.

Writing for HubPages means you receive ongoing roylaties. While you may create simple pages, you earn even more if you take the time to learn about Flagship Hubs and style your pages after these, creating content-rich pages that rank well.

Many Hubbers create multiple pages in multiple categories and are rewarded with increased traffic to their pages and higher earnings.

Triond

Triond is a solid little opportunity and if you create quality pages that strike a chord with a wide audience, the potential is unlimited. Triond is a revenue sharing site. What this means for you is that you receive payment month after month. While earnings on articles are generally smaller, over time, earnings add up. Successful Triond writers create many articles and link to their articles at every opportunity, thus creating a large base of articles that return an ever expanding income stream. Triond is a good place to sharpen your skills and master online writing, a basic "earn-and learn" site.

Bukisa

Bukisa is the new kid on the block. The site is easy to use and the pay rate is ideal. The key to success at Bukisa is to create clear and concise content. Bukisa offers an innovative method for even greater earnings: you earn from those who join your network. I bookmark and share quality articles from those who join my network, thus promoting others' Bukisa articles.
