Hello, everyone!
Recently, I have seen a lot of questions on one of my favourite websites, Quora, regarding the topic of making quick and easy money online.
Therefore, I have decided to share with you guys how I make some easy pocket money online.
There are a lot of ways to make money online:
- By completing the so-called “Micro Jobs” on websites such as Amazon MTurk etc.
- By providing various services in your area of expertize on websites such as Fiverr
- By doing many available freelancing jobs on websites such as Freelancer, Elance, Upwork, Odesk etc.
- By blogging ( 🙂 )
Of course, these are just some of many ways to earn money online. Now, some of these do require certain experience, good ratings and recommendations. But what if I told you that there is a way to start earning money online immediately, without any investment. Only thing that you are required to invest is a decent usage of English language.
Seems impossible, right? Well, it isn’t. It is a great way to immediately earn good amount of pocket money. If you are good at it, you may even make a profession out of it.
I present to you…
FREELANCE ONLINE CONTENT WRITING.
There are a lot of websites online which provide jobs of all topics for freelance writers all across the world. Not all of them are beginner-friendly, but there are some which allow you almost immediate earnings, with very little effort.
The one I would recommend to a complete beginner is iWriter.
iWriter is, in my humble opinion, the most beginner friendly freelance content writing website there is. All you need to do is to complete a fast registration, watch a short video tutorial (optional but highly recommended) and you’re good to take one of many different jobs there are.
The great thing about this website is that there is no writer selection process. Who grabs the job first gets it. It is, however, up to the writer’s skills whether the article shall be accepted or rejected.
In the list below are some advices on how to choose your first writing job at iWriter.com:
- In the menu above the job list, check the approval rate to be above 75%, this way you are more likely to have your article approved by the requester
- Check the article instructions, if the instructions are too lengthy, or the requester mentiones the phrase similar to “DON’T DO THIS OR THAT OR THE ARTICLE WILL BE IMMEDIATELY REJECTED”, then you should stay away from taking the job
- If the article instructions are too short, you should stay away from the job as well
- Check the ratings from the previous writers who have worked for the requester, if they are not as good as they should be (at least 4.5 stars for requesters), you should stay away from taking the job
- If the instructions are not in good English, or they are written with poor usage of grammar, you may expect the review to be in the same manner
Please do take this advice seriously as I’m speaking from my own experience. I have dealt with a lot of bad requesters when I was starting and I don’t want any other beginner to experience it. It damages your rating a lot, and it takes a lot of time to repair the rating afterwards.
In the images below are some examples of bad requesters.
The payments at start are not that great. The trick is to advance to the ‘Premium’ and ‘Elite’ writing classes. With every advancement you will earn more money per article, and you’ll start getting better yobs. In order to advance to the Premium class, you need to have at least 25 reviews, with an average rating of 4.1 stars or more. For the Elite class the bar is a bit higher, you need at least 30 written reviews, with an average rating of 4.6 stars or above. There is also the Elite Plus class, where you earn some serious money, but it requires 40 reviews and a 4.85+ rating.
There are, of course, some sites where you can earn more money, but they require a lot of writing experience. iWriter is a great place to start writing, you’ll gain some valuable experience and still earn some decent pocket money.
After you’ve gained some experience at iWriter, you are all set up to take on some serious writing gigs. You can even consider making it your regular source of income.
Here is my current iWriter balance, as an evidence that it is possible to make money with it. As you can see, I’m a Premium writer now. This money was earned by writing 5-6 Premium class articles.
Now you’re all set up to start earning decent money online!
Please do let me know in the comments what your experiences are. If you have any questions, leave them in the comments as well.
Until tomorrow guys!
