Just so you know, “Content Authority” gets a very bad “web of trust” rating. No comments, so I’m not sure of the reasons.

It can be quite rocky, but very rewarding if you can make it work.

Wow! If I ever decide to freelance, I will definitely check these sites out. However, between full time job and blogging, there is no way I can do it. but I love the idea of building your own client list and freelancing from home. However, I know it is a rough and unsteady path.

Yeah, I have a few ideas for simple products that may sell one or two copies… we’ll see. You’re right though – way too many balls in the air to add too much.

The only problem I see is that many of the services out there provide content that is not of the best quality. Of course you get what you pay for and if you are only willing to pay $0.01/word or even worse $1 per article then you deserve the mashed up crap that you get back.

If I was to start a content provider service I think I would focus more on the high end clients who understand the importance of quality content. Google is beginning to figure out how to sift the chaff from the wheat and will only get better at that.

Just like Bill Gates said over 10 years ago “Content is King” and will continue to be so.

Blog writing services are a rapidly growing niche. Anyone who is willing to invest into their own blog writing company should not procrastinate.

I believe it is the perfect time.

While the pay still isn’t that great, you are right that they crush most other “get paid to write” sites. I stopped writing for them because I am focusing more on the long term rewards of publishing my own content, but for someone who needs a source of immediate cash flow they can be a good way to accomplish that.

I didn’t know of any of the above sites. A few years ago I was looking into getting paid for writing and only knew of Craigslist and Associated Content. The pay structure of the sites you outlined above crush the two I mentioned big time. If I had more free time, I would definitely be interested in looking into writing more, but right now, it’s not in the cards.

Well then if you’ll be buying content you can check out the same sites just as a publisher rather than a writer.
