Writing Articles for Associated Content
I have actually found it a bit difficult to sleep today so I have been up since two thirty in the morning writing articles for my blogs, and I wrote five articles for Associated Content specifically. Lately I find myself interested in experimenting more and more with Associated Content as it has a lot of potential to bring in earnings. I recently have found several people who earn more than $300 per month on Associated Content and I have spent a good deal of time analyzing their articles and what they write about to see if I can emulate their success.
Really this post should be on my personal blog, but since I am relating this information to other bloggers. For people who are looking to write to make money, blogging may not be the best way to accomplish this. I have now met several writers on Helium and Associated Content who make four or five times as much as I do with my blogs, they don’t run blogs, or many of them only have a small personal blog. They are dedicated amateur writers and all of their content goes to Associated Content or Helium exclusively.
Now I have submitted several articles to Associated Content exclusively and I have made about $12 in up front payments for my articles averaging about $3 per 400 word article, which is much less than a paid post at PayPerPost, SocialSpark or PayU2Blog, but you can earn money from pageviews which you don’t get with your blog specifically. $1.50 per 1000 pageviews for all of your articles combined, some of these successful writers have hundreds and thousands of articles at a million page views. Do the math, this is more than $1000 in earnings a year or more and you never have to worry about stressing to find sponsors, grab paid assignments, pagerank…etc.
So think about it, if you really just want to write articles and make some money, sure, you might start off a little slow but in the end it takes alot more work to be a successful blogger and make a successful blog. You have to have a different mentality than just wanting to write articles and news stories. So if you are someone who just wants to write articles and earn some money for writing as a hobby, I do encourage you to check out Associated Content, I am by no means successful. I started back in February 2009 and have only about 1000 pageviews so far which makes me a Clout level of 4, but I have a feeling the more articles I write, I can climb the clout ladder sooner or later.
For those of you who choose the harder route of running your own blogs, there is much more to do than just simply write your article and promote it, you have all the blog maintenance overhead and challenge associated with that and I salute all of you.

Not really sure though, my friend uses it and I do have an account there but I haven't yet posted anything. You can ask their support staff for it. I am sure they would allow something you own :) and not cheat but I am just wondering if Google caches it, it may term it as duplicate content? What say?
