Which sites do you know of that will pay out for articles? Which are the good ones? I am particularly looking for one like Associated Content. It seems like such a great site, but it will only pay out for the US and Canada. I found a site - Helium which will do. It is quite good but I think they pay out is very small. If you have any tips on writing for Helium then please share them here. I would really like to hear about your experiences. Apart from those two sites, do you know of any other sites that are very similar. Ones which will pay out for writing articles. Especially if they will pay out to other countries as I am in Britain. I think that there must be some out there, perhaps you have some experience with this? Many thanks. :)

Another site is Constant Content. I don't know much about it but others here on Mylot seem to like it. It is similar to Associated Content. I do know that the writing must not have been published elsewhere. Also, you get to name your own price. Some have said that it takes awhile to sell your writing on CC.

I have the same problem with AC. They only pay US and Canada. I have a profle on there, but realized when it was too late that they won't pay someone in Switzerland. I am a American citizen. I moved to Switzerland last year. But they want a address in America. I suppose I could always use my parents address in America, and they send me the checks? I'm still debating what to do about this because I don't know if the checks would be valid from another address when I cash them here? Still a bit confused. So like you, I am looking for sites like that, that pay internationally. Thank you for this post. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help though :-( Greets to you.

Pleased to meet you. misstree. What a cool name that is! :) Helium does pay, but I don't think the rates are as good. In fact I am sure of it, because it has a rating system. Hope we can find what we are looking for. Thanks for the response.

AC pays by Paypal, not checks!

Yes, it does pay by paypal, but they won't pay anyone from outside the USA.

I've recently started using Constant Content - I notice a lot of others have already mentioned it. It's good but they are strict about spelling, grammar, punctuation, etc. I've sold a few articles already though and been paid for them so I'm pretty optimistic about it.

That's great news! :) Well done! & Thanks for sharing the info. Spelling and grammar can be important when writing, so I suppose it is only fair. Sounds good though!

i really love to write, feliniti, and so i got into your discussion to find out some possibilities of getting active again in this field other than here at mylot. now, it seems that it is quite doubtful as to what will be the good site to choose for this matter to come to realization. i hope that you will strike it hot though and earn as good as others have pointed out here.

It is difficult to find a good site. Associated Content seems to be the best one but it is no use if you are outside of the US. Constant Content seems to be the next best for someone outside of the United States. http://www.constant-content.com/?aref=10378

Helium is a waste of time they don't pay anything. I have 17 articles with them and I still haven't reached $4.00 USA dollars. I stay with AC as they pay upfront.

I agree with you about Helium; however, you can make some money because they have a contest going on right now. Still the amount of work you have to do to get payment vs. Associated Content makes Helium a much worse deal (per hour of sweat and research). Some folks have managed to figure out a way to make money with Helium, but it's not me either.

It is very difficult on Helium. I'm just making a few cents per day. :( Anyhow I joined up with Constant Content and Triond and I will see how it goes. http://www.constant-content.com/?aref=10378

Thanks for the info on Helium. That is very dissapointing isn't it? Shocking actually, they should do better than that.

Triond will pay for your articles, but it takes a while to earn. You can also try Constant Content.

Triond.com is very much like AC. I think they accept people from outside the US. I think the income in Triond is directly related to the number of page views your content generates and it is paid on a monthly basis.

Hello feliniti, I understand that you are from Britain. Will you be interested to write reviews and get paid? There is no need for registration and you can start doing your review with just your account email. (preferably paypal email). You can do it anytime and anywhere and the reviews can be on just about anything. Minimum payout is $50 and it is easy to reach payout. If you are interested, do pm me and I'll pass you the link. Have a nice day ;)
