One Article can let you Make Money Online in many different ways

Ever thought about the different ways to make money from writing Just One article? Let’s say you are willing to spend something like 15-20 minutes to write one [500 words] article: now let’s see how much money you can earn from this article and let's see how many different ways/opportunities are available on the internet.

Opportunity Number One:

Writing an Article for a Client at a Freelance site:

The first place where you can utilize your time in writing an article for money is a freelance site. This is the place where buyers from all over the world come to hire job seekers on the internet.

One of the jobs that you can find at these sites is copywriting: this work may involve writing Articles, Press Releases, Website Content, Product Descriptions etc.

Now, how much choice do you have in choosing the topic of the article that you will need to write?

Buyers have the authority of choosing topics. But this does not mean that you are bound to obey all commands given by them.

Buyers simply write their requirements and complete job description in their project details. You can go and check different projects that are posted by different buyers: [Different projects have different requirements]. And you can go to different freelance sites to check all the newly posted projects.

You can read the description and in case you find a topic interesting to write then you can contact the buyer to find more information about the job. After communicating with the buyer you will find all the information that you wish to know about the work.

After all this, if you find the job worth doing, then you can apply for it via placing a Bid. There are different people who apply for the same job and it is the buyer who chooses one or more winners.

Are there any restrictions on the number of articles that we can write at freelance sites?

No, not at all. You can write as many articles as you want to. Actually, you will see different number of article requirements in different projects that are posted at freelancing sites. Some project may have a requirement of writing 10 articles [500 words each] where another project may have a requirement of writing 50 articles [300 words each].

Buyers may need 500, 1000, 2000 or more Words per article.

Every project will have its own set of requirements.

Are you bound to apply for limited number of copywriting jobs?

Off course not: the work you can get will depend on how much work you can do. You are free to apply for multiple copywriting projects.

If you only want to earn money in your spare time then you can apply for fewer projects and if you want to make a living online doing this work then you will have to spend 8 or so hours at freelance sites and will have to apply for multiple projects each day.

I think this is an enough introduction for people who wish to make money online via doing copywriting jobs. I will suggest that you read the following freelancing guide: This guide contains a list of Top freelancing sites.

Opportunity Number Two:

Write Useful/Informative/Fresh/Unique content for your own websites:

You may have noticed that my English writing skills are not very good but I am still able to earn money at freelance sites via doing simple writing jobs for different buyers. I have also written content for websites.

After sometime, I thought why not I make a website of my own and then I will try to write useful content for my own sites.

So I built my first website [I think] in the Year 2007: I was not sure if I would be able to earn any money from my site: But I did not give up and I carried on learning how all this website business work. At first, the results were quite bad but as time passed things started to work out and my sites were able to generate some money for me.

I then decided to quit freelance work and work fulltime on my site...

But what is the relationship between websites and making money from articles?

A website either provide some kind of service: like a shopping site where one can buy products. Or a site can provides some useful information about a product or service or any topic: for example: if I am a newbie and am wondering how a person can earn money online: then for me, a site will help if it contains content about all legit ways to earn money on the internet.

If you want to earn using your Writing Skills and Knowledge then you can consider building a website where you will add useful information. You can either get a free site or you can buy your own domain and hosting which may cost around $100.

A site that provides Useful Content to its user will help you earn money. The amount of money that you can earn will depend on the quality of the content that you will add in your site. The more useful content you add the more will you earn.

But how do websites make money? Websites make money when they get targeted visitors: and search engines are the best source to get such traffic for free.

In order to get search engine traffic your site needs to rank good in search results. That is possible when your site has some excellent content. SEs love to see useful/informative/fresh content and SEs will rank such sites higher in their results.

You can find more information in link which I have mentioned above.

What will be the Topic/Niche of your site?

You should only make a site on a Topic/Niche in which you have interest. A topic on which you can write lot of Useful Content. The main purpose of a website is to provide the promised service or content to its users and that is only possible when the owner of the website have good knowledge about the topic.

You should never build a site on an unknown topic. One possibility is to first learn everything about that unknown topic/niche and once you know everything about it you can then start to deliver your knowledge to other people via building a site.

Think about your interests. Like if you love to watch movies then build a site related to movie reviews. This way you will be writing about something that you love to do.

Opportunity Number Three:

Write or submit articles to sites where you will earn money from revenue sharing:

Do you know that you can use the same article in different ways to make money online? Except for the opportunity number one where you are selling your articles at freelance sites. You cannot use those articles anywhere else on the internet.

[I am assuming that you own a website] The best way to get backlinks is via adding excellent content in your website: but people often use other OK techniques to get backlinks. For example: Article Submission.

If you write an article and submit it to a Top Article Directory, then you can get a backlink.How about submitting the same article to Revenue Sharing sites too? Sounds interesting right?

Please Note: Do not submit the content of Your Own Website to other places. This will create duplicate content issues. Also, do not submit the same article to different Low Ranked directories.

There are some sites where you can submit your articles and they will share the revenue that may generate from your articles. Some of these sites even give few dollars [per article: some conditions applied] for adding your content in their site.

The content that you will submit in these sites will continuously generate income. Your content may get upfront payment [few dollars] plus you will be earning money on daily/weekly/monthly bases continuously.

This can generate constant income for you.

Making Money via Affiliate Programs:

It is legit to promote an affiliate program if your site is giving some useful information about the products that are being promoted.

To start: you need a website where you will add useful information for your site visitors. You will need to write some very informative content that is related to the affiliate products that you wish to promote. Give users a good reason to first visit your website instead of visiting the affiliate site directly.

Now you can write a useful article where you will talk about the affiliate products: give tips or any good information. You can submit this article to a top directory. With this submission you can get a link back to your own website where you will have More information about the products. If users find your article interesting, then they may visit your website. You will have the affiliate links in your own site alone with extremely useful content. When visitors will come to your site from article directories, they may click on your affiliate links which may result in a sale or lead.

The article which you have submitted to the article-directory: As it contains general and informative content, therefore you can also submit them to the Revenue Sharing sites. So from just one article you are generating income via multiple ways.
