I've only been writing for them for a few days. They pay between 1-10 dollars an article. Once you reach 50.00 you get payout. I am up to 27.00 so far.
They are really easy to write for. The name of the site is neowide. If you go, check out my articles. They are under my name. Angel Sharum.

I don't think I have heard about this site yet. Lately, there are a lot of different Writing sites popping up online, and it is hard to decide which ones are worth writing for and such. I will have to go and check it out. Just would be interesting to hear from others being paid there to make sure this is a legitimate site as well. But thanks for the ideas.

Thank you for sunn for keeping your fellow Mylotters in the spotlight. Very kind of you. I was debating whether I should look at the site before posting-but I figure it's best to just respond with a fresh outlook. Do they charge a fee to join?

Hey there.
I've never heard of Neowide. Interesting name. I will check this one out and read your articles there. Sounds like there's potential there to earn some moolah. Good luck with that.

Hey sunnflr,
A very interesting topic of discussion. i'm always checking out new website which pays for article. I have a few questions. Do they acccept international users? Do they pay via Paypal? How long does each article have to be? What are some of their criteria for the articles to be accepted? Thanks in advance!

If you are writing for them, I wish you the best. They are really easy to use, and will take articles that aren't 400 words which is all good. The only bad thing is that they have started only wanting to pay 1-2 dollars for everything since I reached payout. I even tried sending a longer well thought out article and only got that amount. They won't keep good writers doing this. I already know a few who are going to leave after they reach payout.

Good to have somewhere else to try but they don't look that good yet - if they wan't people to be able to actually read the articles it'll be better if they were organised more, and listed with title and descriptions rather than being dumped together on one page in each catergory. Also it looks a bit dodgy because they say in the terms/intro that your articles shouldn't appear anywhere else on the internet but a lot of the articles in the internet/technology sections are straight from other sites (and credit them).

I hadn't heard of this site. I'd love to hear from someone who has gotten paid. Do let us know when you reach payout and you actually get paid. I may need to wait until that happens to join. I have other sites I write for and it does take a bit of time so adding another site really needs to be considered.

This sounds cool; I'll definitely check out your articles.
It sounds so easy, writing articles, but I bet it's not. Do you have to come up with original ideas? That's where my problem would be. I guess I just have too much going on right now and my brain is kinda fried, but I just can't seem to think very well these days. Maybe, once my hubby has recovered from his recent surgery, I'll be able to think straight again and maybe try my hand at writing articles. I've always loved writing.
What are some of the things you've written about? How do you come up with ideas? I'm very impressed that you've made $27.00 in just a few days. Who knows? I may be talking with the next great novelist! (Have you ever thought of writing a novel?)
Keep up the good work!

I've written some health articles, a self-esteem articles, and some articles about writing for neowide so far. I haven't had a problem coming up with ideas yet.
I actually have a book I started a long time ago. I haven't worked on it in a while. Been too busy doing articles and short stories. I've learned so much that the book would have to be totally rewritten anyway.

Well they say they pay and there are writers on there that have been there a little while. I don't think they'd stay if they didn't get paid. I won't know for certain until I reach the 50.00 payout. A friend told me about the site, but she's not quite at payout either. I was willing to take the chance cause they are very easy to write for. I'm doing articles that I can write in five minutes.
