Make Money Writing Books and Articles for the Internet

Writers are needed to provide the written content that Internet growth requires...

Can you write simple articles or theme papers at the 5th to 9th grade level in English? Is English your first language? If you answer Yes to those two questions, then you could make good money writing short books and articles for the Internet!

The Internet, growing exponentially, has a voracious appetite for new material. Every new website is looking for "content", artwork, graphs, pictures and, most importantly, text, to fill up webpages.  Content text doesn't have to be a literary work. It just needs to be clear, understandable English. And, it has to be unique.

Robot programs called "spiders" crawl the net for the search engines, building the database that you access every time you "Google" something. You type it in to the search engine window and press "search" to have the database checked and show you the results. Google, Yahoo, MSN... there are many search engines.

Search engines are the way people find things on the Net. If you are promoting something and want to be found by those who are looking for it, you need to "optimize" your website for the search engines. You will want it to appear on the first page of search results when someone searches for what you are promoting.

The search engines are constantly evaluating websites to determine what they are about and how important they are. The most relevant and most important appear first on search engine results pages.

One of the key ways the search engines determine importance is by how many pages of unique content is found on the website.

Unique, because if it is a copy, only the original gets any credit. The copies are judged to be unimportant. And with computers, a given page of content can be compared to millions of other pages in seconds.

Just go to Copyscape.com and check it out. Give it a news item from a magazine, hit the "search" button and in seconds it will tell how many times it appears on the Net and exactly where, which websites! No way to cheat; you must have unique content! Content that does not appear anywhere else.

Only people can generate that kind of unique content.  It's not hard to do.  And it's an excellent way to make money writing for the Web!  You do not have to be a great writer, or even a very good writer. If you can write in simple, understandable English at the 5th to 9th grade level, then you qualify!

The going rate for articles of 400-600 words is from $8 to $25, depending on the subject and the number of articles contracted. You can write a couple of those articles in an hour. The money adds up fast!
