Hi everyone. I used to have online writing gigs. I stopped and tried a full-time job. Funny as it may seem, I used to earn more before than now, and too bad, I can't return to my old gigs. Do you guys know any writing gigs online? Ive been looking online but all seem to have that tag of scam and all. Help guys.. thanks..

It's really too bad you can't go back to what you were doing before and have to start at square one. I would think that freelancing sites like Freelancer and Elance are your best hope for high paying jobs. I've heard Constant Content pays well, too, but has very high standards...I'm also not sure that they allow international writers. The sites that pay you for page views like Triond and Bukisa are also good and are easy to write for, but they favor those who are good at promoting their articles.

Yeah, it is kinda bad in a way they were still a good extra income, but I was thinking I want my name on my works now. So, square one it is, but I can't give up, right? :)

I do have some online gigs but it doesn't give me a decent earning though it is good enough for my savings that's why I'm still doing it. There are plenty of writing sites though, I've heard about academia-research and Associated Content but I haven't tried any of it. By the way, why can't you go back to your online gigs before?

Well, its because my clients before have already moved on with another writers. Also, this time I want to be able to see my name on my articles and other works. Before, I was a ghost writer for another writer, and for my other gigs, we used the name of the organization. :)
