✍️ Earnings on articles: a source of stable income 📈
Everyone who has asked the question of how to earn income on the Internet has come up with the idea of earning money on articles. Many reject this idea for themselves due to their insufficiently developed writing talent. But is such a refusal justified? And is it really possible to earn money by writing articles?
Article writer as a profession
Let's start with the fact that there is such a profession as a copywriter. This is a person who professionally writes various texts. The most familiar text for the average person is a simple article. That's what we'll talk about today.
Options for writing articles and choosing a direction
Thus, a copywriter is a person who writes articles. With the condition that he writes them completely from scratch. If a third-party source or several such sources are used when writing, then the text is already rewriting. Such texts are valued slightly lower than copywriting. If you know a foreign language very well, you can pay attention to such a direction as writing translations. This is also a very popular occupation, because there are many foreign articles that may be of interest to Russian-speaking users who do not know a foreign language.
Spelling and punctuation
Knowledge of the rules of the language in which the text is written is mandatory for the author of the article. But even in the case of imperfect knowledge of the language, there is a way out of this situation. To bring the article to an ideal state, you can use the services of a proofreader. Of course, you will have to spend a little, which will inevitably affect the amount of income. But it is worth it, since articles with grammatical and punctuation errors are of little use to anyone. This is due to banal competition. And many resources that sell articles do not allow articles with errors to be sold. Therefore, this fact should be taken into account if you are going to make money on copywriting.
Selection of topics of atics
Of course, articles of different topics are valued differently. This should also be taken into account when writing articles for sale. This issue should be addressed by studying the popularity ratings and demand for various topics. Many resources provide such a list. It is from this list that you should choose the topic closest to you and start making money online.
But if you have not found topics close to you in the top, then do not get upset and take on a direction that is unclear to you. Of course, training is only welcome. But writing an article on a topic that is not clear to you is very difficult. In addition, it will take a lot of time. Therefore, it is wiser to choose a topic that is close to you, even if it is low-paid. And here you should take volumes. Even if you write more, the process will go easier, and the texts will be of high quality. Then sales will grow, and there will be an incentive for further work.
We are writing an article
Before writing an article or after this process, it is necessary to come up with a bright and catchy title. It is this fragment that the reader and potential buyer see first. The title should interest both the first and the second.
Often, a short description needs to be made for a written article. A kind of summary. Here, literally in two or three sentences, its merits should be revealed and outlined. Often, it is by this fragment that the buyer evaluates the writing style of the author of the article.
Where can I sell articles?
There are two main groups of options here. The first group includes options
earning money on articles on the Internet, and the second is sales, directly, physical.
Let's start with real-world sales. You can offer your articles to a variety of publishers, editorial offices, and other printed publications, of which there are a great many.
In the case of selling me on the Internet, everything is very similar, but to some extent even simpler. Sites, thematic resources and other portals may be interested in your articles. But you will have to look for a customer or buyer for a long time. And here, article exchanges come to the aid of a novice author.
There are now quite a few sites where articles are sold. The largest of them are Writeraccess, Textsale and Etxt. Each of these platforms for selling articles has its pros and cons. Having familiarized yourself with each of them, you can choose the best option for yourself. Practical results of test sales will be especially relevant here. They will best show the true alignment of priorities. Both in relation to the topic and in relation to the platform for sale.
For example, I work as a customer with a content exchange.
[Writeraccess], because it is very convenient to create a task, deposit funds into the account, the exchange constantly monitors the quality and uniqueness of the content, and also has its own article store, where you can buy several ready-made articles on the required topic.

How much money do people make writing articles for sale?
This question especially worries all beginning copywriters. And it is simply impossible to answer it unequivocally. There are certain minimum values, below which it is simply impossible to set the price. But that's not all. After all, there are always people who strive to get quality content as cheaply as possible. If you have gained a rating and trust, then the price should be gradually increased. Well, the maximum values can reach simply astronomical heights for common sense. But the reputation in this case should be appropriate. Here, it is unlikely to do without personal acquaintances. In any case, copywriting is the area of activity in which a person is constantly improving. If he does not write carbon-copy texts. And that means experience comes, the rating and quality increase, the client base is developed. This is definitely worth doing.
It is possible to earn money by writing articles. Despite the apparent ease of such work, in practice, this type of earnings is conquered by few. But if you show persistence and constantly learn, then it is quite possible to achieve a refusal of the need to wake up at the same time every morning. And go to a boring job.
