Get Paid To Write Articles On The Internet

Posted by Brandi on 6th May 2009



Go Freelance


Click. Work. Collect

You can get paid to write articles on the internet.  I know this because I am a member of a service where I DO Pay people to write my articles!  I actually pay between $6.00 and $12.00 PER Article that is about 300 to 600 words.  I just cant keep up with  all the blogs I have.  It is a very simple way to make money.  The service gives you a list of people that need articles written and give you topics.  You are guaranteed to be paid whether or not they like your article or not.  There is usally a rating scale that they go by to make sure your articles are well liked.  It is easy to write the articles.  The information is already in Google.  It is just time consuming and that is why I choose to pay for people to write them.  I promise if you have ever wanted to make money on the internet freelance writing is the best way.  Maybe you have tried other ways like surveys.  Surveys do  not come close to the amount of money you can make by writing articles especially compared to the time involved.  Usually you can spcecify which area you are familiar with.  Maybe you are good at saving money with coupons that is one niche you can tell them you  would like to write about.  Articles are usually written as reviews for products or how to articles.  Anyone can do this!  It takes “maybe” 20  minutes to write an article after you have researched it just a little.  That is like getting paid $25.00 an hour if you can write two or three articles an hour.  There is a never ending amount of articles to write also.  The topics are endless.  You see, the articles MUST be unique and NOT copied and pasted and this is why there is such a HUGE demand for freelance writers.  Unique content on the internet is what Every web master needs.  If the webmaster has 20 websites it is impossible to keep up with the content that the site needs to rank well in Google.  Maybe you have tried internet marketing and gave up.  If you can just write you can write your way to a full time job with this.  I am wondering if it is a secret because Im not sure why everyone isnt interested in writing for good money.  You do not have to be an expert to write either.  You just need the ability to look up information and put it in your own words, how hard is that?

Here you can find out where you can get paid to write and get paid well:

How To Find And Use Ebay And Paypal Coupons

Posted by Brandi on 8th February 2009


Diana Ratliff asked:


Did you know EBay and Paypal have been giving away electronic discount coupons for some time and hundreds of users have been cashing in on them? Also called “redemption codes,” these special savings opportunities are little known but can save you substantial sums. And since coupons can be used on any item from any seller that accepts PayPal, your selection is huge!

If you have received a coupon for eBay via email, you are one of the lucky and select few. eBay and PayPal seldom send coupon or gift certificate offers to all members, only to those who meet certain criteria.

For example, sometimes eBay will use electronic discount coupons to entice a member back to the site. This means that if you were a fairly active buyer on eBay and suddenly stopped buying, they may email you an offer of a discount on your next purchase. This kind of coupon is usually accompanied by your email address, which means it is only valid for you to use and will have an expiry date.

Sometimes EBay offers electronic discount coupons to a certain group of members. If they are experiencing low sales in a particular area, they may send the coupon codes to users who have previously purchased those items.

eBay also offers more general coupons. Even though they may originally be emailed to targeted members, the offers can be used by other buyers who met the stated criteria. A good rule of thumb to follow is that if it doesn’t reference an email address, the coupon can be shared.

Paypal also offers occasional discount coupons by email for different promotional reasons. Sometimes they are for every user and, other times, they are for certain users, groups or areas. A recent promotion at Christmas time featured free shipping and discounts of $5 to $20 from selected online merchants. PayPal promotions are also run via electronic discount coupons and have expiry dates and conditions of use.

Where to Find eBay and PayPal Coupons

Coupons that can be used by others are often mentioned on eBay’s chat forum, and in forums associated with other websites that announce bargains and deals. You can also find these types of coupons by doing a web search for “eBay coupon code” (or “Paypal coupon code”), but many such links are expired and some may be fraudulent, so be careful.

Restrictions on Using eBay and PayPal Coupons

The most important thing to remember is that you must find and buy an item that accepts PayPal and then pay with PayPal. You will only see the discount when using PayPal as payment. If you have a coupon code and plan to use it on an eBay purchase, it is your responsibility to verify before buying that the seller does accept PayPal. You are still obligated to pay the seller for the item even though you cannot use your eBay coupon or gift certificate.

Currently, coupons are only valid for items listed on eBay.com, eBay.ca, and eBay.co.uk.

Make sure that the email address on the coupon is associated with your PayPal account; if it isn’t, add that email address to your PayPal account.

All eBay discount coupons have expiration dates.

How to Redeem

Generally, a digital discount coupon is a long code that you enter on the payment screen when you win an item. On PayPal there is a box labeled “Coupons, Gift Certificates and eBay Anything Points”. This is where you enter the coupon code number. If validated, the discount will be automatically deducted from the balance due. If your coupon doesn’t cover the total cost of the item, the remainder of the funds will be deducted from your PayPal account or the bank account associated with it.

The person selling the item has no indication that you have used a coupon (the savings come from eBay, not from the seller) and the sale goes proceeds as usual.

Given the fact that you can buy unique and highly desirable items on eBay at very attractive prices to begin with, the possibility of adding to your savings by using an eBay or PayPal coupon is not one to be missed. By making regular checks to see if there are any discounts currently available via eBay or Paypal, you can be one of the people taking advantage of these savings.

How to Cyberhunt and Tame Office Depot Discount Coupons

Posted by Brandi on 30th January 2009


Becky Caulkin asked:


Once bitten by the coupon bug, you’ll never shy away from it. Why would you, if you’ve found the best deal for an office table, computer printer, and reams of office paper? Plus, the money saved was your own. Surely, once you’ve found the usefulness of Office Depot discount coupons, you’ll want more.

Office Depot Coupons: How to Hunt Them Online

Sure, you started with a lot of misses – Office Depot discount coupons suddenly removed from the site, or suddenly expired. You have been also confounded by coupons with unknown expiration dates, which caused you a lot of irritation. Want to be a smart coupon hunter? Note these tips down:

* Coupons are not always available. If your favorite site does not have the coupon you are looking for, hunt in other sites. They might have it, but in most cases, coupons are not available if the retailer or manufacturer is not offering any for the period.

* The best time to go hunting for Office Depot discount coupons is during the first two weeks of the month, not during the last week of the month. At this time, coupons have expired.

* Before you make any online purchase with your coupon, see to it that the code is accepted because coupons can just expire anytime.

* Read the announcements carefully. Some coupons are reserved for first time buyers. If this is your first time to get Office Depot discount coupons, you’ll be rewarded generously with more perks and bigger discounts.

* Some coupons will indicate if these can be used several times, or if it can only used once per individual.

* Coupons cannot be combined with other discount offers, and do not expect that discounts will apply to shipping charges and sales tax.

* Some offers will require specific credit cards, so check these out before you click away.

* Don’t just copy it onto your PC. Write it down so you can refer to it just in case your PC decides to take a break.

Taming Your Office Depot Discount Coupons

If you’re a newbie, make the taming of the online coupons easy. If the site provides a coupon code, use your mouse to highlight the code, and press C so you can enter this later. No coupon code given? Activate the discount by clicking on the link.

When you get the code, you have to enter the code into the shopping cart, or enter the same when you’re checking out. You will always see a box where you can enter all types of codes – promotional, promo, promotion, key code, or discount. Click the submit area if this is your first time to shop online using coupons.

Some coupons don’t work. Perhaps they’ve been sitting there for long. Contact customer service and ask if the coupon is working or not. Or, if you enter the code and no discount appears on the order review page, don’t push it.
