Write what you want or write what they want.

Whichever one was least likely to close and disappear without a trace owing lots of money.

You need to follow what your heart tells you. If I did have to choose I'd go with write what you want.

You do both. One lets you write what you are feeling and get it off your chest. The other gives you money to suppress your own feelings and write about their topics. So, if you do both, you will feel good and have more money.

You should do both if you can. Me, the less I have to do, the better. Lol!

It is hard.to take rejection. Hmm. Maybe the 5 cents

Wow! I didn't know those sites and not interested to know. Payment quite low!

Definitely the latter if the goal is to make money. Thats my opinion at least. As longa as they are not outlandish topics.5 cents for 300 words is well...not good. I am a member of Bitlanders but have not been active there. Knowing this now I may not ever be active there. Lol.

does your byline appear in both sites? do you only get paid one time (upon submission)?

@allknowing Can I ssk you wbich you would choose? Both of them perhaps?

May be the 5 cents, just to avoid rejections, but it does not sound so interesting to receive only 5 cents for 300 words.

I don't really like time limits. But I do like that with Textbroker the time limit is usually a day.

A good writer alike a good speaker has the ability to put across her/his thoughts in whichever fashion the situation demands. Just as in a job interview when I sit on the compromising side of the table I wish for the employer to know what I am good at but I cannot decide his/her questions for him/her but I can deviate my response slightly from the original enquiry enough to spark an interest in what I want him/her to know. Hence not distorting his/her skeleton questionnaire but simply adding meat to it. So I suggest you go for the paid on as at the end of every article you’d emerge a better writer for which you’d be paid. How awesome is that? But remind yourself always of what you want the crowd to know and serve then that every time in a different dish. Calm seas never made good sailors!
