If you do nothing else to make money online or to make money writing, you could earn a solid living just by writing articles.

The secret is - you need to diversify. There are a lot of different ways your articles can earn you money. This lens provides you with solid ideas that will help you get started.

"In order to truly make a six figure income writing articles, you need to be really STUBBORN."

How do you make money with Associated Content? 

I really believe that Associated Content is worth signing up for. You can make money through the site in three ways:

1. Write and submit articles and get paid up front.

2. Get the bonus pay for your articles - the more page views you get, the more extra money you'll make.

3. Get people to sign up using your affiliate link.

Keep in mind that you can only get paid if you live in the United States.

Is Associated Content Worth the Time? 

Indirectly it is. I used to submit my articles there for upfront pay. I don't anymore - I'm much further along in my career right now to make something like that necessary. But as far as I can tell, Associated Content still has value.

Develop a Portfolio

First of all, this is a good place to post articles to show to clients. If you want to write articles for your clients on a variety of topics then post your original articles on Associated Content and give them your profile link to check it out.

Article Marketing

It's also a way to give your blog or website exposure and to get backlinks. And the nice thing about using AC for both of these things is that you can earn money for your page views. Granted, the money is merely change, but it could still be worth it to use the site because you'll be getting value beyond that.

Publish Your Own Articles 

And Monetize Your Website

Another option for making money with your articles is to publish them yourself on your websites or blogs. The way you make money is by monetizing the site with advertising programs and affiliate marketing.

For starters, you can always sign up for Google Adsense and put those ads on your site. But, that's not always the best option. Here are a few more.
Chitika
I just started using this recently so my earnings haven't been a whole lot... yet. But, it seems that a lot of publishers are having success with it.
Clickbank
I also use Clickbank to promote other people's digital products. My one rule is that i will have read the eBook and found it well written and helpful.

    I'm very slowly starting to create a body of articles online. I need to learn to crank out quality articles much faster. I've already made a little bit of money so I know a good income is possible if I stick with it.

    Associated Content will only pay upfront if you are American. However Helium have now started paying upfront too.
