How to Really Make Your Living with Associated Content - 4 Steps to Success

I Provide Four Basic Steps that Have Helped Me Make My Living on Associated Content

Nearly a couple of years ago I, just like you, ran across Associated Content. Like many of the first-time users, I was extremely intrigued about the possibilities Associated Content was laying before me. The thought of getting paid for your writing was too good to be true. But then, like
 most, I began to grow doubtful that this company would actually pay for web content. Yet, there was only one way to find out, submit an article. Several days later, I received my very first offer, for $10.00 - You can read this article here - and the rest is, as they say, history.

For the next several months, I began slowly writing for Associated Content. My submissions were around two or three articles every couple of days. Seeing that the whole idea of writing web articles was new, I took every step of the way carefully. Like most Content Producer's, I had a reason for writing articles. I wanted a T-Mobile Sidekick, which I was able to get (read my review of the T-Mobile Sidekick III). However, saving around $300 took several months, but it was well worth it. Over the next few months I began to write more and more, until I realized that I could actually make my living writing for Associated Content.

This was extremely exciting for me, because I was only 19 at the time. So by writing for Associated Content, it gave me more time to relax with my friends and to study for college. Unlike if I had a normal part-time job. However, I soon became lazy and began to put off my writing. Until one day, I looked into my PayPal account, and saw that I had $3.75 to my name, thus the next day I went out and got a normal job. I thought that my dreams of working at home were over. This was until about four months ago, when I decided to give it one more try. So, I began to write for Associated Content like never before.

I just don't see how I can get that many articles out per day or per week....even from my own field. However, congratulations to you for your success.

Thank you for writing this. I'll admit I haven't read much of your work yet...but I might have to now. This one's a keeper.

You state the same truth that I find from successful writers on the Internet: making a living means having both quality and quantity articles. Writing about your passions also means learning how to get your articles found in the search engines. I've come back to a commitment in writing online. And I've come to realize I think I can make at least a couple of thousand per month . . . it all comes down to page views on this site, while advertising may play a role on other sites. I like your article and the reality of it.
