Are you capable of writing about ANY topic ?

Can you follow strict writing formats?

If you answered yes, to any ONE of those questions than there is always a way for you to make money from your writing online.

There are hundreds if not thousands of open opportunities saying WRITERS WANTED across the net, the trick is to figure out which model best fits your experience and capabilities and then select the best paying solutions out of those opportunities.

It isnt to easy, it is in fact the Writers Business, not writers play, but there are tons of opportunities, fun to be had and income to be made.

So what kind of writer are you?

Are you adept at explaining complex principles, particularly in the science and technology fields in simple easy to understand language ?

Technical writer wanted

A big demand exists for this small subset of writing, large contracts exist for writing user manuals and opportunities of all sizes can be found at most freelancing sites. A quick glance around any traditional job posting service will usually have a handful of these opportunities available at any time.

Content Writer wanted

Good Content Writers are always in demand, every site on the net is hungry for new content. In addition to the constantly updating freelance opportunities below many partnership companies have sprung up to help provide webmasters with a reputable and consistent supply of information for their sites.

If you can take any topic, research it and write concise text that is still enjoyable to read then content writing is for you.

A good starting point if you are new to online writing is Associated Content

If you are a strong writer and willing to work in a more speculative but higher paying field than Constant Content is for you. Constant Content can easily offer you 50-100 USD per well composed article, you can also exhibit your existing portfolio of writing and offer licensing and usage rights

Columnist wanted

Perhaps your previous experience falls into the more traditional model of columnist or newspaper writer. Do you freelance for your local paper, did you edit your college newspaper (I did) are you comfortable writing consistently within one specific theme or about a specific region.

Then The Examiner is your best bet, be a syndicated, respected journalist and get paid for it.

Perhaps writing to guidelines or deadlines isnt your style, well there are still plenty of opportunities for you. This site HubPages allows writers to select their own topics, profit from them and learn the ropes for bigger opportunities.

Closed Networks are best for Long Term Success

Open Doors limit Quality Control and cohesiveness, the following is my top recommendation. But, admission is limited. Its worth a try though!

Best HubPages Alternative

- For a short time, the Xobba Network is accepting new writers that are exiting the HubPages and eHow models. The majority of the opportunities are reserved for closed door discussions, but if you consider yourself to be a writer or marketer who puts forth their best effort and would like to move towards self sufficiency in your online writing career ... you should look into Xobba

The application process is informal -begin discussion about Xobba Opportunities, be prepared to show existing portfolio examples and converse briefly about marketing models you follow.
