I could find nothing outlining the rate at which writers are paid. Can you? I requested compensation information and this is the second link I received (the first was dead).

Is it 1 cent per 1,000? And what topics pay the best? Does animal rescue pay good? I don't want to waste my time if I am not going to be compensated fairly and make more than $25/month. I am an English major, and I don't want to tarnish my reputation with a site that is known for paying its contributors/writers poorly. So if I could get something in writing that spells out how "examiners" are paid, I could make my decision. So what exactly is the rate of pay per click through? Is it 1 cent per 1,000?

It was hard initially - but residual income starts to kick in. Like many writers here, it took 15 to 20 minutes to write an article. I love writing anyway, I am treating it as my Blog - and lately, because I want to be patriotic I have been writing a lot about good American companies that are hiring, and traffic jumps to 1000 to 2000 a day, which is around $20 per day. Now - the good thing is - Examiner article should be a good leeway into other opportunities - I picked up several projects from Examiner articles - like an international real estate marketing projects: $1400, then I also sold a variety of ebooks and reports which I have created. It can't be a F/T job - but it's an excellent marketing tool and also build up your online reputation. Now I get at least 500 hits even if I do nothing for the day.

You have to work outside the box and look for several sources to write for as a writer. You get paid by the click, and if no one reads your work, you do not get paid. No traffic, no pay. That is why most of these sites have you link your articles to other articles of interest. It is all about traffic, and traffic generates money. And, as a writer you get paid after all the bills are paid relating to the company you work for. That is why it is called freelance. There are no benefits associated with the position. So, if you write you have to decide how to use these companies to your advantage. Some are good just for the purpose of linking back to your own personal site. If you can increase the traffic back to your own personal site, that is money in the bank write there. It is just a matter of who uses who. Try going to any site and clicking on links. Have you ever noticed that sometimes those links do not lead to what you expect them to. It does not matter where it leads to..,it is the click generated from the link. So in writing your article link it back to a site that generates a lot of traffic, and that will increase your pay. It is all about advertising for the company you work for and increasing the number of clicks to prove they qualify to the source of income that actually runs there company. The more clicks they get the more money made available to them to continue as a company. No clicks and eventually you have a dead company. That is why as a writer, the freelancer gets paid pennies.

I am going to college to become a journalist, most likely major in online journalism, and I am wondering if accounts such as Examiner.com and Suite101.com are good ways to get your name out there and learn about the business? Are there other websites as well that offer good experience? Also, how do you get people to notice your articles on Examiner.com and other websites? Thanks! Hey!

I suggest you contact them via their help or support email for details about your particular situation.
