2. Introduction
There are many ways to make a quick income online, but none of them
is easier to implement, and as hassle-free as writing content – articles,
website content, reviews. All the other methods require lots of knowhow and money, for example internet marketing and information
product creation.
There is money though, lots of it, to be made writing online!
In this report you will learn how you can tap into the insatiable
demand for written content on the internet so that you can:
 Earn quick emergency cash, or a side income
 Turn your writing skills into a long-term service
 Write a book or books for Kindle for a nice passive income
If you read this report and ACT ON IT you have at your disposal all the
information you need to start or jumpstart your article writing career
online for a piece of the action. You do not need to be a very skilled
writer to make a living writing content online, only determination and
the will to succeed. There are many Kindle success stories for instance,
including work at home moms and students who started small, wrote a
book or a blog for fun, and hit it BIG. Start out writing articles and it
will be a short step to publishing on Kindle.
I hope you find this short guide useful on your quest to earn your first
$1,000 online.
Let’s get started!

3. Article writing opportunities
Written content – or you can call it text – drives the Internet. Video and
audio content is getting more and more popular, but for the
foreseeable future text will remain the No.1 format for information
online. And it sells big time! There is a huge demand for information on
the Internet. Starting from when you type a keyword in Google to
search for information, you normally start by typing words, or text, in
the search engine and because of this fact all websites, be it video and
sound hosting sites like YouTube, Vimeo, SoundCloud, iTunes, etc,
necessarily have to have text on their websites that the search engines
can use to find the other content on these sites.
This is where you can come in as a content writer, providing the
content to website owners, internet marketers, offline businesses, you
name it; people in need of content in the form of search engine
optimized articles, web content, product reviews, etc to generate traffic
for their web properties.
All of this may sound obvious and commonplace to some , but before I
go any further here is a testimonial to prove to you my earlier claim
that there is easy, quick cash to be made writing content online:
“I worked as a freelance writer for a while when I first started
online and I was lucky enough to be paid $50 an article almost
from the beginning…
I applied for some writing jobs I came across on Craigslist. They
knew the value of quality content and were actually apologetic that
they couldn't afford to pay more than $50 per 500 word article. The
quality of my writing was no better than it would be if I were
writing for just $5 an article but I was making $150 a day (while
3

4. still working in my day job).
I doubt it's easy finding clients that will pay $50 an article, but it's
definitely possible… A friend of mine got writing work through an
ad in a local newspaper”
Here is the link to the post in the thread:
http://www.warriorforum.com/main-internet-marketing-discussionforum/585864-iwriter-alternatives.html#post7323180
As you might have found out if you read this thread the best ways to
earn an income online as a writer include finding reliable clients and a
long-term contract, or writing information products, or ebooks. But
that is a topic for another report. For now we are looking at ways to
earn fast cash through writing articles (content) for the web.
A quick recap and disclaimer:
I’m not suggesting you will make loads of cash writing online in a very
short time, but there is money to be made if you have writing talent –
fortunately you don’t need lots of talent. We are looking at ways you
can earn money to tide you over tough times. Maybe you just got laid
off work, or you are looking for ways to supplement your income by
making money online, or you want some assured income while you set
up another internet income source. The testimonial given above is not
a typical situation, but let’s just scale it down a bit to see what you can
realistically expect to earn writing online:
If you can write 6 articles per day for $25 = $150
6 articles a day for $15 = $90
6 articles for $7 = $42
4

5. 6 articles for $5 = $30
So, how much you can expect to earn will largely depend on how much
effort you are willing to put into it, in terms of writing the content and
your marketing effort – finding the right clients, I mean.
With that said, here are some of the ways you can earn a quick income
as a writer online.
Ways to earn fast cash online as a writer
Even as a content writer there are many different ways to earn money
online:








Article writing
Micro-jobs
Copywriting
Ghostwriting
Web content writing
Reviews
Kindle
And more
The distinctions are really minor and if you can write articles you
should be able to quickly progress into web content or copywriting for
example, or writing product reviews. All the information you need to
develop any extra skills you need is readily available online.
In this short report I’m going to focus only on article writing and
writing for Kindle
Shortcuts for Article Writing
5

6. That article I referred to earlier on the warrior forum, or rather the one
by Warrior Parker Arrow at This Link had a lot of useful advice for
anyone starting out in article writing and I’m going to reproduce it
here. He’s talking about starting out as a newbie, where to begin…
“I'm going to (hopefully) give you a few shortcuts here:
“You might try Textbroker before iWriter or Fiverr. The system is easier and
more consistent. Much less risk and irregularity than freelancing and hitting all
the bear traps. You start out at your fair level, you don't have to start at the
lowest tier and work your way up. Don't let the rates fool you - you can develop
from a beginner to a professional there.
Study AP style.
Study Textbroker's AP Style
You'll learn what you need to know about writing for the Web at TB.
Try to write 500 words an hour and then bring it up to 1000 words an hour while
keeping your grammar on the mark. Do yourself a favor and use simple
sentences. Don't mess with commas and compound sentences until you've
mastered Comma Fu. Applying the spirit of a law takes stylistic interpretation;
content broker editors tend to work by the letter of the law. Channel your 8th
grade grammar teacher and write every sentence as if it's on the chalkboard.
For private freelancing:
If you don't have a portfolio, go to clippings.me and post sample articles there for
free. You can use a Google Shared Document like the one in the "Textbroker's AP
Style" link above. Just remember to set the document to "Share with anyone with
a link."
Now that you have samples up, don't write free "Demo" articles for clients who
promise "lots of work" if you're "good enough." They may just take your demo
and spin it, and you wasted your time and got ripped off. Real clients don't expect
something for nothing. (Here's another hint: the lowest-paying clients make the
most unreasonable demands. You're better off without them). When freelancing 6

7. get 100% payment up front. Assure quality by offering revision until the client is
satisfied. No refunds. Use your payment terms, not the client's. You're a partner,
not an employee or dependent. You'll probably want to use PayPal.
Yes, this will weed out clients. They are clients you probably are better off
without!
Understand differences of content requirements.
Work according to your hourly income needs - not what value clients assign to
their projects and your time. Clients may want 7 revisions for a $7 article. You're
not a community service.
Starting out, you might take an hour for research and another hour to write. This
is too long. Most articles should come in under one hour. Time each article and
you'll discover how to improve your efficiency.
For example, consider this rate chart:
.01 /word - $5 for a 500 word article:
SEO writing - about 30 minutes TOTAL
(Practice getting it down to 15 minutes)
.03/word - $15 for a 500 word article:
Authorial writing - about 45 minutes TOTAL
(Practice getting it down to 25 minutes)
.05/word - $25 for a 500 word article:
Pro writing - about an hour TOTAL
(Practice getting it down to 40 minutes)
.10+/word - $50+ for a 500 word article:
Premium writing. Write until the article's legs reach the ground
(Practice getting it down to 60 minutes)
Clients may demand the last option's quality at the first option's rate. Ignore
those orders. You just keep this little chart in mind and take on jobs that you can
fit into these slots. Protect your hourly income because no one else will do it for
you. Start with that and you'll find yourself still in business tomorrow.
7

8. Don't limit yourself to writing what you know. Write what you can find content
on quickly. You can write about anything under the sun when the article payoff
fits your time requirement.
Good luck! ”
Conclusion:
Like the guy said, if you can string sentences together, add in a bit of
research and you can write about any topic. Working as a content
writer, you will get lots of topics or keywords thrown at you, stuff you
know nothing about. But not to worry; you have a friend in good old
Google! Google has all the information you need to write a good article
on anything.
Nobody will be asking you to write a dissertation or a PhD thesis, just
500 to 2,000 word articles. Just get in there and starting earning
money. And, oh, before I leave I should note here that the Warrior
Forum’s “Warriors for Hire” section is a great place to find writing jobs
when you get more experienced. You need to join the forum first,
though.
For writing your articles, if you are just beginning, take a look at these
article templates to see how to structure and write a good article:

A Brief Note on iWriter
iWriter is a great concept especially if you are looking to get in and
start working right away. There is no bidding for jobs, which puts it in a
class apart among freelancing websites. With iWriter you just need to
sign up, find whatever article writing jobs are available, claim one of
these articles and start writing. You will normally be given between 1
and half to 3 hours to do the article. If for some reason you fail to
complete the article in time it goes back in the pool, to be finished by
another writer.
The downside with iWriter is that sometimes the work available is
limited, plus, the pay is bad if you are just starting on the site (about $3
for a 500 word article), what they call Standard writer. There are three
classes at iWriter: Standard, Elite, and Premium. Premium writers can
get to earn as much as $15 for a 500 word article. Good money! 
To make good use of iWriter you need to put in effort in the beginning
at the low pay rate and ensure you complete the first 30 articles fast, at
which point you become elite class. Oh, if you can pay the upgrade fee
10

11. of about $150 you will be promoted to premium class right away! No
need then to do the grind in Standard class 
Article writing: How to scale up
To scale up your article writing services online the best way to go is to
work with the big service providers, including SEO agencies, marketing
consultants, email and social media marketing services, internet
marketing consultants, and website building services, or local SEO
companies. These need your services mostly for building and boosting
their client’s websites in the search engines. If you succeed and find
one of these companies to write content for, you will be assured of
long-term income.
Take a look at this screenshot of my account at Elance.com.
11

12. This was just one of several long-running projects (jobs) I had with an
SEO/Website-building company, lasting over several months; total
earnings, above $7,000. For brevity I have only shown 7 out of 59
milestones. These kind of contracts mean are a big relief and you want
to be on the lookout for them.
Bidding on popular freelancing sites like Elance.com you can get lucky
and land a good contract like this, but it is rare. Here is a more sure-fire
way how to find big clients. It’s a bit hit and miss, but you have many
more options. Just keep working at it. You only need to get lucky once
or twice.
Visit these two directories for contacts of these agencies we talked
about, in your local area, or international; then email your prospects
with a proposal. I have included a sample proposal at the end:
1. GetListed.org
2. TopSEOs.com
Navigate to here: Vendor Directory  Services and select category
NOTE: You only need to have one or two well-paying clients to make a
living writing online.
Here is that sample proposal, or email pitch:

Writing for Kindle
Writing articles is a fine way to earn extra income online but you will
also want to explore other, PASSIVE income systems online, meaning
an income that you can setup to provide you with cash passively. With
article writing you stop earning when you stop writing, or when a
project comes to an end. Passive income, you more or less set it up and
forget.
13

14. One of the easiest such systems is to write ebooks for Kindle. Everyone
knows Amazon’s Kindle; and ebooks are big business for Amazon! If
you can write articles, it is a short leap to writing an ebook. Kindle
publishing especially makes it super easy to publish on their platform.
Basically if you can work in Microsoft Word, you can publish on Kindle
Desktop Publishing in minutes.
Romance fiction is the BIGGEST category of all books sold on Amazon.
If you have a romantic bone in your body, give it a try; write a romance
for Kindle! You may also compile a list of well-researched articles you
have written yourself, focused on a narrow topic that addresses
people’s needs or concerns, compile it into a book and publish it on
Kindle.
Here is a list of the most marketable topics on Kindle:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
Romance fiction (so many sub-genres)
Self-help/self-improvement
Health & Fitness
Diets & Dieting
Personal organization (how to organize your life)
Home decoration/organization
Cookbooks & recipes
Dog-related books
Books about simplifying your life
In this short report we cannot go in depth about how to write an ebook
and publishing on Kindle, but the opportunities are endless and VERY
inviting. It is another way you can scale up with your writing skills, and
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by yours truly  With Kindle you can get to
target tens of thousands or millions of readers, whatever the topic or
niche you want to write in.
14

15. The Kindle platform is HUGE, and it’s something you can count on.
People are always going to read books. Used properly Kindle can give
you the financial freedom you are looking for.
In July 2012 for the first time ebook sales were higher than hardcover
sales. This trend can only continue. The question is not if you should
write for Kindle, the question is when do you intend to start? And that
time is NOW!
As you start and go about your article writing services online, keep the
Kindle platform in sight. That’s one platform you cannot afford to
overlook.
