Work From Home – Finding Freelance Writing Gigs

Work From Home. Finding freelance writing jobs can sometimes seem daunting when you’re getting started freelance writing . Although this isn’t necessarily a comprehensive list of freelance writing sites you can check-out, it should serve as a good place to get started finding gigs that help you make money online working at home! Feel free to add more sites in the comments, and I’ll re-issue the post once there are enough to make it worth re-posting!

Work from Home – Freelance Writing Gigs That I Write For Regularly

Associated.com - My recommended web-site to get started freelance writing. You will end-up writing for other folks as well, but Associated Content (AC) is the place to get started freelance writing! You can make money for up-front payments as well as a staring amount of $1.50 per thousand page views for all content that you write. You have more control over topics at AC than any other freelance writing website that I’ve come across.

DemandStudios.com-If you’re just starting out, you’ll want to wait to apply to DemandStudios until you have a bit of a resume built up. DemandStudios requires you to provide a resume, a writing sample, and choose three categories that you would like to write about. It can sometimes take a while to get an answer on your application, but once picked up by Demand Studios, the going rate on most articles is $15 USD per article with a recently introduced revenue sharing format option for some article titles

eHow.Com- You’ve likely surfed to at least one “How To” article in the last year. eHow pays you based on a proprietary formula based on revenue sharing for your work with a fair bit of social interaction within the eHow community required to really get going. I normally post here about every other week when I have a topic that fits their format I want to share.

TextBroker.com – Need a mental break once you get going? TextBroker is the place for you. Not that high of a paying site (you start at about a penny word), but you can crank out some of the topics fairly quick here and gives you another income stream!

Work from Home – Other Freelance Writing Gigs

BloggerJobs.biz – There are a number blogging jobs that range from part to full-time.

Constant-Content.com - Constant Content is a site where you put articles up for bid at varying rights levels. I’ve had mixed success here, but know others who swear by them!

FreelanceWriting.com -  The site has a mix of resources to help you get started freelance writing with a few job opportunities.

Helium.com – I’ve only done a small bit on Helium. You make money based on sharing in ad revenue on the topics you contribute to and are expected to comment throughout the community.

Jobs.ProBlogger.net – An ok jobs board if you’re looking for blog work.

JournalismJobs.com – Job listings for blogs, newspapers, magazinesand other forms of print and online media.

Online-Writing-Jobs.com – Various freelance writing job listings for a number of different types of sites and media.

Suite101.com – Suite 101 is pretty strict on their standards compliance, but you can write on a variance of topics and earn money based on revenue sharing for the advertisement income of your articles (similar to eHow).

WritingBids.com – Another bidding freelance website (if you can’t tell, I’m not a huge fan of these, but other friends are).

Work from Home – Random Freelancing Websites

AllFreelanceWork.com – Another freelance community that has a listing for work in many topics besides freelance writing.

Amazon Mechanical Turk- Run by Amazon.com, if you’re up for very low paying work (but paying) then go here. I’ve used it a tad early on…before I realized how much I should be making working at home…but like I said, it does pay, just really low.

BizReef.com – Contractors post jobs and you bid on them here in a wide variety of fields.

Elance.com -A well known freelancing website with all kinds of freelance work available. Freelancers can set up profile pages listing all of your skils.

FreelanceJobs.org – Freelance working that can post profiles for employers to search as well as where you can list jobs that you want to pay a freelancer to do.

FreelanceWar.com – Listings for all kinds of freelance work (not just writing).

GoFreelance.com – Has job listings for authors, marketing and several other fields.

Guru.com – Freelance work in a number of fields including broadcasting, illustration, Web design, and more.

iFreelance.com – Site where freelancers can bid on work from prospective employers. If you find work here, it generally pays pretty decent

TheFreelanceNation.com – This site pulls together listings from 119 different freelance job boards with listings for legal work, web design, photographers, PR and many, many more fields.
