Information and Ideas for Getting Published Online


Writing is a Great Way to Make Money from Home and you can get started At NO COST TO YOU!

If you want a part-time income, or are a SAHM (Stay at Home Mom) or STHD (Stay at Home Dad) looking to become a WAHM (Work at Home Mom - or Dad), or are unemployed, doing work online can be a good job. Even if you do not have a computer, you can use computers at the library for free!

I am a professional (money-making) online writer. On this Squidoo lens I will tell you how to make income from home, full time or part time writing articles or making fun web pages about things you already know!

No gimmicks. Nothing to buy. Just info from me to you. We like to help others here at Squidoo and I remember how hard it was to get published at the beginning of my career as a writer. I hope this information can help you reach your dreams as a writer, whatever those writing dreams may be.

Be your own boss and set your own hours.

If You are a Writer or Have thought of Becoming a Writer, You Can Do it Online!

What's in this for me? I am most likely getting a bit of income from Squidoo because of traffic by visitors (like you) to my page. Once in a while I get a small commission off something offered for sale through this page. I also get to link this page to my other web sites and articles. If you visit those, I make a bit more money. That's my 'disclosure.'

If You Want to Earn Money from a Job Working on Your Computer, this is the place for you!

Make Money Online Free and Easy

Great Job Idea for WAHM or WAHD or SAHM


Make Money Online Free and Easy

See farther down the page for more info about making money from home by writing online.

I have always liked to write, but only had one magazine article to my name before starting to write online. Now I have over 250 articles online, each of which is generating a bit of income for me each month.

I also have about 200 web pages on Squidoo (where you are now). Squidoo pages are free and fairly quick & easy to make! There is a bit of a learning curve, so don't expect to 'get rich quick." However, with dedication and patience, there is good money to be made here.

Working online is great for you if you want to work from home or on your laptop (pretty much anywhere),

Try it out. It won't cost you anything at all.

Make Money Writing Online and Building Websites and Squidoo Pages

Squidoo Pages are called Lenses. Each is one page in length.

Make Money Writing Online and Building Websites and Squidoo Pages

I am a freelance writer and stay-at-home homeschooling mom. I write part-time to bring in a pretty good income. My goal is to bring in a LOT of income in the future. I am slowly but surely building up several avenues of making money online.

One place I make money is here on Squidoo. If you have a passion or interest, you can make money here too.

There is a link below where you can join Squidoo through this page. Why not give it a try? It's free and there will be no editors hanging over your shoulder. You write what you want and people will find you. More on that farther down.

I also write for a few article sites. The main one is Suite 101. If you are already an established writer, you can apply to be a paid writer at www.suite101.com. Here you will have an editor over your shoulder and must follow certain guidelines. You make money by the page visits you get and the Google ads clicked on your pages by real, interested readers.

There are many opportunities to make money writing online. Search around and keep learning. That's what I am doing. There is always more to learn.

Happy Writing!

Building a Presence on the Internet with Squidoo, Suite101, and Other Websites


Building a Presence on the Internet with Squidoo, Suite101, and Other Websites

Writing and building websites and Squidoo "lens" pages may not be a way to make money overnight, but with patience and perseverance, a creative person can build a nice part-time job for themselves within a year. I am but one small example.

I am a freelance writer, web-master, and "lensographer" (one who makes Squidoo Lenses, like this one.).

In the last 14 months I have built over 125 Squidoo lenses, 5 independent websites (shameless plug with links coming up lower on the page, thank you), and have written over 207 articles for the online informational site www.suite101.com.

I have been with Suite 101 the longest, as a freelance writer. Suite 101 had approximately 15 million readers per month, and as of July 2008 and I was averaging over 60,000 readers per month myself.
At the beginning of 2011, Suite101.com has over 27 million readers per month and I am averaging 250,000 readers on my articles (Wow! Fguring that I just surprised myself!).

The 31st of July 2010 was my three-year anniversary writing at Suite 101. My first paycheck there was about $17 for the entire month of August, 2007. Working for .50 a day was not impressive (my son razzed me), but I made a goal for myself to be making $2.00 a day within one year. It took only a few months to surpass that and my next goal and my next goal. Nobody makes fun of me anymore.

My 2011 Suite 101 goal is to make enough to consistantly make the mortgage payment and a few more bills for working part time from wherever I can tote my MacBook (which allows me to continue being a stay-at-home mom, which I see as very valuable in and of itself).

Part of the reason for my Suite 101 writing success has been my lens pages on Squidoo. By building lenses around articles I have written, I have started making a web of my own within the larger web of the Internet. My Squidoo Lenses and other websites link to my articles. In this way, I can help people find the information they want and need, while I make more money. It also helps me build my presence and income online.

    Great lens! You're a real inspiration to me, since I'm still fairly new both here at Squidoo and at Suite101 as well and have only a couple handfuls of articles at each place. I can't wait until I have the number of articles you do under your belt, it's amazing! I've lensrolled this to my Why I Love Squidoo lens. :-)

    I have been writing online for years. There is a knack to it, but get it right and you can indeed make money. Great lens and have a lovely holiday season.

    Good ideas. I joined Squidoo around the same time as you, and also write at Associated Content (part of Yahoo), where I have been climbing the tree for almost a year and doing pretty good. I also write on my own blogs, and use Best Reviewer (see my lens) for both promoting my articles/lenses and direct affiliate linking.

    Oh, I also wanted to add that if you're looking to make money from online sites, you should check out Associated Content and Helium.com. Both are like Suite 101, which you mention in your lens. :)

    Hope that helps!

    Great job JJNW. Welcome to the Readers and Writers group.

    I enjoyed your tips on freelancing from home. Perhaps you'll visit my lens, Tips on Breaking into the Ghostwriting Industry. In it, I provide tips on how to make hundreds of dollars working from home. Yes, shameless plug, but it's true. I'm also writing a book on making money online ghostwriting. I hope you'll check it out when it's finished.

    In the meantime, good luck! It sounds like you work hard and have seen some success. I wish you all the best.

    Great Lens. 5 Stars. Even I thought I knew everything about online articles. I guess it's true that you can learn something new every day!

    Thanks,
