Get Paid to Write - Make Money Online Writing Reviews in 2009

Possibly the easiest and most straightforward way of making money from blogging is writing paid posts.

The rewards come not only in the form of money into your PayPal account, it’s also a fantastic way of building your credibility as a blogger.

Over the years, the ‘get paid to write’ model hasn’t changed much. You write honest review and you are paid. Plain and simple.

You - the publisher - can either contact the advertisers directly or make your writing available through ‘middlemen’ who take the cut whenever an agreement is reached between you and the advertiser.

All you need to do is to submit your blog into the marketplace for advertisers who are in search of publishers.

It’s a win-win scenario where the advertisers get the publicity and you make money writing reviews that interest you.

Here’s a list of “get paid to write” sites

where you could join and turn your words into dollars and cents.

1. PAY PER POST

Joining is easy as long as your blog has been in existence for 90 days with at least 20 published articles. With a marketplace of $5 to $100 for each review,  you could easily earn $100 in a month.

At the time of this writing, the top reviewer is earning $23,600. Phew! Pay Per Post takes only 10% of the cut and payment is made by PayPal after 30 days.

2. SPONSORED REVIEWS

At Sponsored Reviews, bids are submitted to the advertiser who then selects the blogger to purchase the review from. Once your bid is accepted, you have one week to write the review. No minimum payout. All payment is made bi-weekly through PayPal.

Smorty is quiet similar to Pay Per Post. If your blog is qualified for the review, you may take it. You can select any topic than interest you or publish in multiple blogs to earn more.

Make Money Online in 2009

Though ‘get paid to write’ is losing its novelty somehow, it’s still a legit source of income for many bloggers to make money online.

If you have a knack for writing (or already exhausting other sources of generating income online), taking this route could be your best option to make money online in 2009.

Keep in mind that some ‘get paid to write’ sites are stricter and choosy than the others. It’s good to have a decent Page Rank too as it’s often one of the most important criteria to be accepted.

PS: Some of the available opportunities are simply junk so choose one that suits your blog. Don’t attempt to make more money at the expense of yours and your readers’ interests.

With just a PayPal account and an active blog, making money online couldn’t be much easier, could it?
