I love to write. But I am not a professional writer or an expert. I just love to write whenever I love to because I love to share what's on my mind and whatever I learn in my daily life. I want to reach people through writing. I want to write in my own topic. I used to write articles at ezinearticles for the purpose that it drives traffic to your website since I have set up a free website for all of my programs. I compiled everything in there and that's it. I just write coz I love to. Many says I can make money through writing, and all I know I can make money is through blogging. But I don't have any idea how to do that blogging thing. Wanted to know more about it and I am preparing for my free website upgrade in weebly whenever I know how to blog. But is there something else that we can make money through writing aside from blogging??
Thanks everyone!

Many people like Triond as a way to make money writing articles about whatever they want. Wikinut is another site: they even let you publish articles you have published elsewhere!
I prefer Helium over both of those sites. Some people complain about Helium because they have been rejected; but I have over 200 articles there and have never been rejected. Their standards aren't actually that high, and you can republish, but your articles must fit the title they provide (there are hundreds of thousands of titles to choose from, with more every day, so I can always find what I want to write about.)
I have made well over $500 from Helium in the past 6 months because they also have contests and a marketplace where you can sell to publishers.

Triond and Wikinut pay you per article view, which is only a few pennies a day, but if you are good at SEO and promoting, and have a lot of articles, it adds up. On Helium you will also get paid per view but there is a marketplace where you submit articles, and if they are picked you will be paid more for them: up to $5 an article.

That sounds very interesting. Writing is my hobby too. It has been my favorite hobby since my high school years, and is still is. There are a number of programs on the internet where you can write articles, short stories, reviews, and so on. One of the sites I have been working on is "Review Stream". You can write brief reviews on a variety of topics, things you come across in your day-to-day activities, shopping, movies, restaurants, hotels, travel, etc., and get paid once the review submitted is approved.
Enjoy writing !

Hi ftrazona,
Yes you can make money by freelancing work. There are many sites which you can join like triond,busika etc., In busika you will get around 3.2$ for every thousand visits to article you have written.
Happy earnings
