Taking a chance, I applied for a position at a website on-line to become their Kids Nutrition and Exercise writer. I now have the job and will actually receive a paycheck soon.
At "Examiner.com" you can search for a local city in the United States nearest to where you live. From there you can "view" all the columns that are available to write for locally. You immediately apply on-line, submit a sample article or link them to something you have already written on-line. Use this LINK http://exm.nr/AxeO10
I went through the 3 major cities in my area and found a topic I know about throuroughly and enjoy talking about. I often research this topic and I share this topic with friends and family. I've done this for 18 years. Writing about my topic is easy for me. It is already based on information I have stored in my brain, on my bookshelf and keep up on in the news. It is a part of my life. Similar to having a hobby.
Within 24 hours I received a welcome letter telling me that I will be a perfect fit for their group. I was speechless.
Once hired they will send you to their on-line university for training. If you already blog, this step is easy to get through. The university is on-line and available to you all the time. Your articles must be written in 3rd person and include photos and videos. You will need a head shot and a short biography.
Think about what you like, what you google about, what you pay attention to on the news and in local programming. If you have a child with allergies, then you know more information than a new parent on that very topic.
You will be paid according to how many articles you are writing, the traffic to your articles, how long a person is at your article and actually reading it. In other words, you want "subscribers" and you want someone to actually read, comment and LIKE your articles. If you have a large face-book audience, then you can ask your friends and family to join you on-line at Examiner.com.
The open positions are filling up fast. I personally recommend this part time position to anyone who is a stay at home Mom, a person who needs the extra income, and anyone who feels this is a career choice for them. Visit Examiner.com today and sign up!
Thanks for reading and best to you!
