Article Writing

Online article writing has become a hobby of mine which I really enjoy. I'm really just starting to get into the groove of it now, and enjoying myself very much. Online article writing is something that anyone can do. There are many sites out there which allow you to write articles for them and get paid for it. Some of them use up front pay, which means that you get paid a certain price for each article that you write, while others use passive income. Passive income in context to article writing means that you write the article once, and don't get paid a certain amount for it. Instead, you get paid with ad revenue based on how many times people click on the ads that are posted on that page. How much ad revenue you generate with your article depends on how well you optimize it for search engines. A well written article with good use of keywords will generate a considerably higher income than one that does not use keywords at all. I like to use the site Textbroker.com for my up front pay, and Ehow.com for my passive income. I have not made much yet with ehow, but that is because I have not typed very many articles for them. So far, I've made about 20 dollars with ehow in the past few months. Textbroker though is another story. I've probably made about 500 dollars so far on Textbroker, and I plan on continuing to make that amount increase over the next few months.
