hi guys welcome back to money Monday if you're new to my channel hello my name
is Kat Theo and today I'm not wearing any makeup actually let's just move this
camera back a little bit yeah okay that's better maybe you won't focus on
it too much you know when you kind of wake up in the morning you're just not
in the mood today is one of those days but we're gonna start our week off right
and talk about the top paying websites for writers so you can start your writing
career today or just make a little bit of cash in your free time
okay let's go
it's very cold today I know you've already heard a fiver but a lot of
people don't realize this fiver is a hundred percent free and you don't need
anything to get started all you need to do is open an account you can set your
own prices from the get-go so if you want to charge $20 for 250 words you can
do that and it'll probably take you like 10 minutes to write 250 words if it's
something you're already familiar with but if you don't want to be a freelancer
and you just want to send articles to already established blogs we're going to
get into the top pay websites right now okay so if you are kind of a travel
blogger or at least if you know a little bit
about traveling our first websites are Travel related blogs
the first one is Wanderlust Wanderlust is a British blog so their market is
other British readers so if you think you have some articles that would
interest them in interest British readers then you can send them your
article or write for them and they are known to pay 220 pounds per post their
posts they do expect to be around 1,000 words the next website is for Alaska
Airlines magazine Alaska Airlines magazine pays 150 dollars to $700 per
post I actually used to work for a lot of airlines a really good company
it's an honest company and it'd be really cool if you could write for them
it doesn't say how many words you need to write but you can expect between 150
and 700 depending on what the topic is about the next website you can write for
for travel related articles is travel in leisure and magazine they actually pay
one dollar per word so you can do the math that can be up to a thousand
dollars for example per article okay our next topic it's gonna be about general
post not in a specific niche per se but the first website you can go with is
guideposts guideposts pay about $250 per article and their articles are all based
on true stories of people's achieve and goals a lot of their posts are
focused on things that people have overcame obstacles through their faith
and or lessons learned the next website you can use is called Chicken Soup for
the Soul I'm sure you've maybe heard of them
before but they pay out $200 per post and they're looking for a funny
heartwarming story that has happened to you or someone you know the last website
for general posting is for power of living powerful living pays about 125 to
375 per post and it's all for Christian adults so all of their articles are
based on Christianity and faith so if you write a 700 word article for them
you should expect around 125 dollars and if you write for 200 to 600 words you
can expect around 375 dollars per post ok if you want to post about short
stories so maybe you're kind of a little bit more than just a blogger author you
can say maybe you're into science fiction there are many websites you can
post short stories and they will pay you for it our first website is Clark's
world Clark school will pay you 500 to 1300 dollars approximately proposed
Clark's world is a science fiction magazine and they have actually won many
awards for their magazine so if you want to write for Clark's world magazine they
have a word limit of 1,000 to 16,000 words per post you are paid 10 cents per
word up to 5,000 words and then after 5,000 words you get paid 8 cents per
word ok so continuing the science fiction short stories you can write for
ASIMOV's science fiction I'm not sure that's how you go print out sit but they
pay up to sixteen hundred dollars per story I also found out that they pay
about eight cents per word or up to sixteen hundred dollars per post so
