How Do I Earn Money?

Let me tell you the ways.

You can earn money writing articles and submitting them. They have to be unique, owned and written by you within the past 90 days. They want fresh content. There are many different things you can write. My favorites are poetry, articles, and rants. I love to rant. You get paid $1 if your article is published. They have guidelines which are easy to follow. I pretty much summed them up already, but you can visit their site and see. You can also earn a bonus if your article makes it to the front page. You earn a base of $10 and you can earn up to $100 per item that hits the front page. Now that's some good money.

The second way to earn money is by reviewing other people's articles. Each submission gets reviewed by 15 other users. This way you can get a fair review. You earn $.02 cents per item that you review. It's not a lot, but all you do is read and click a score and submit. Not hard is it?

The third way to earn money is by referring others. You earn $8 for every user that signs up for a years membership. Pretty sweet isn't it?

Want To Earn Money Writing Poetry?

It's easier than it sounds.

Fortitude earn money writingFortitude will pay you to write poetry. Yes you can write poetry and get paid. The starting rate is just $1, but if you get featured on the front page you can earn a minimum of $10. The maximum is capped at $100 which is a pretty good price for your poetry. All articles submitted are paid the minimum of $1 if they are published.

How Much I Have Earned So Far.

Yes I earned money in less than 24 hours.

I joined on June 22nd 2010. I have submitted 1 article and have earned $.14 cents. My article is currently in review so I am waiting on that to finish before I earn anything for it. I'll update and let you know how much I earned and give you a link to it.

June 24th 2010

My earnings Updated.

Well I am now up to $.28 cents. Not a lot, but I am very new. My earnings are from reviewing other people's writing. I am actually enjoying this part of the site. I have learned so much from this. I am also getting ideas for new lenses that could be very helpful to others.

My article is in Queue right now and I'm waiting for it to be published. I hope to get Front Page, but it's my first article. There's not much competition right now which is great. The highest paid Front Page article was $16.28. Not too shabby. They have a minimum of $10 for those articles. Crossing my fingers on mine!

Does It Cost Anything To Join?

That's a good question.

Yes it does cost money to join. Wait don't close out this window. Keep on reading! Fortitude has a low fee of $23.88 per year. That's only $1.99 per month. That may scare you away, but if you're serious about writing then please hear me out. You can recoup that fee very easily. Just write about what you know and love. I'm sure you can earn way more than the $23.88 you've spent. Want me to give you a breakdown on how you can?

Well you can review 100 articles a month. That's about 4 reviews a day average. That will earn you $2 every month. That can be done very easily. You can write articles and submit them. You'd only need 2 a month that are published and earning you a $1 each. Or you can refer just 2 people. That option is not much fun, but it earns good money. See how easy it is to earn money? That's just earning what you pay back. Don't stop there keep going and earn double and even triple your money back. I am working on that goal.

August 3rd 2010 Update.

Sorry for the delay.

I have been very busy with planning a vacation and trying to enjoy it. Key word is trying. I have neglected my fortitude, but I am back with a vengeance. My account is up to $13.28 already. Not bad for a few days of using the site. My article didn't get paid anything because my scores were low. Hey I'm not that great of a writer and I forgot the number 1 rule to writing. Proofread your work. Yeah I was busy with the kids that day and was excited to have my first article and I hit publish too soon. Learned that lesson the hard way. I haven't given up yet though.

So where did the $13.28 come from then? Well I have a referral. That gained me $12 right there. The other $1.28 was from reviewing articles. They are paying .05 cents per review instead of the original .02 cents. You can probably earn .50 cents up to $1 a day depending on how many are submitted. I plan on reviewing daily to get back up to my original $23.88 investment and then keep going from there. Hey a gal has to make money.

Once my earnings go from pending to approved I'll post a screenshot of my first payment. It make take up to 3 months since $12 of it is referral money. If I keep my word and keep reviewing then I'll have more than enough for payout soon.
