Freelance Writing Jobs

Saturday January 10, 2009

By far, the question that I get most is about freelance writing jobs. The sites are numerous and many readers are concerned with scams. Even among the legitimate sites, you're likely to find a wide variety of projects and pay rates.

To this end, I have been plodding along on reviewing the Top Twenty Freelance Writing Jobs Sites on this website. I hope that reviewing them will help freelance writers to find three or four favorites, and focus on those. I have found that some sites tend toward cheaper jobs taken from cheaper places (Craigslist, bid sites, etc) whereas others pull from publishers sites, newspapers and professional organizations. In reviewing these freelance writing job sites, and reporting back what I observe, I save you time (I hope).
