All About Associated Content

Associated Content is a place where you get paid to write and submit articles. What makes them special from other paid to write sites, is the fact that you get paid up front right away as well as get a small amount for page views.

You can make anywhere between $3 - $10 per article that you write depending on topic and quality. I usually average about $4 for each of mine.What I love about Associated Content is the fact that you can write as much as you want. There is no limit. So if you had the goal of making $40 a day, you would know that you needed to come up with and write about 10 articles a day to make it happen.

You must live in the United States to be able to write for Associated Content.

Also, when you submit an article you need to make sure it is at least 400 words and is of decent quality (good grammar, spelling, etc…). The topic can be about anything you wish as long as it is informative.

Some great suggestions for original articles are: Resturant reviews, Product reviews, Company reviews, How-to Guides, Interviews, Real Estate Buying Tips, Stock or Investing Tips, City Activity Guides, Breaking News, Concert Reviews, Tech Advise, Travel Guides, Research Papers and More… Your options are almost endless.

Keep in mind that they don’t pay for short stories, poems, or movie reviews.

Your earnings on Associated Content are only limited to your ability to think of and write new articles. You could actually turn it into a full time job if you wanted to.

The reason why I have not made more from Associated Content is because I get writer’s block very easily and have a hard time coming up with new topics to write about. Some people have a gift for writing, for them Associated Content really pays off.

The payout is about 3 times a week. You are paid for every article that has been approved at those times. Every time you get an article approved they will give you an offer of a certain dollar amount that you can choose to accept or reject.

The payout is done through PayPal. Click here to see proof of payment.

    great job giving AC a good review. I didn’t think of concert reviews! I’ve got a few of those I could write! Thanks!

    I, too write for Associated Content,. and even when they deem an article is unsuitable for payment, they are quick to praise my content. I had written an article about the Tuskegee
    Airmen when they got the award last month, and although they decided it wasn’t an article they could pay me for, they did ask that I publish as an unpaid article because they felt it had value. Thanks for giving them this glowing review.

    I also like Associated Content. I have made about $70 with them so far, but I don’t write articles all the time for them either. :) Good luck in your venture to pay off your debt. I hope you make it.

    I spend about 3 hours a day working online. I look at it as a part time job that allows me to stay at home with my children. So this really works out well for me.

    It sounds like a good system, although I would be careful if they want to publish too many of your articles (because they think they are good articles but still don’t want to pay) since they are earning money from every article that appears on the site from advertising.

    Hi Amy,

    Nice that you add a pic of you and your husband. I would like to see the little kids too :)

    You look lovely.

    Finally, just what I’ve been looking for. I joined today & I hope your ref link is working right. I also hope you get some kind of commission on behalf of me. Would hate to see someone else get it.

    Is it hard to make money off of Helium?

  14. Amy Bass on September 3rd, 2007

    From what I have heard it is not hard to make money off helium. I just haven’t personally had the time to do too much with it. :)

    Amy
    Looking at your stats for Assoc. Content, what percentage, if any, is your Assoc. Content income residual? Are you still submitting numerous articles each month?

    Thanks and best of luck.

    I just signed up because of you. Thanks for the lead. I hope this can help me get back on my feet and start making money again.

    Hi, I just started using associated content. It seems like a lot of work for a little money. On Helium a partner bought a three paragraph article for $60.00 in the first week. I was hoping that associated would be better. I sent them one article just to test it. The payment was low and it doesn’t look like anyone is viewing it. Good luck.

    This sounds like a writing sweatshop to me. Several dollars PER article?! As a young freelancer, I typically make between .50-$1 PER WORD, and that is on the low end of the spectrum. I can’t understand what would propel someone to do this, other than a burning need to see one’s name in print. I am not trying to be aggressive, I just feel that as a writer you shouldn’t sell yourself short.

    I like Associated content. They are very fair, and even if you receive no pay for an article, you get page views. I receive about 10,000 page views a month and I don’t even advertise. That only comes to about $30 for page views, but in addition, you get paid for writing per article. I started out making about $4 per article, and four months later am seeing $5.50 or more. So you get paid more the longe ryou write there? I write there becuase it’s easy, and I don’t have to wait three months for something to be approved. If I need some extra money for a special dinner this weekend, I can write for two days and have the money in a few days. Some say they work full time, but I don’t see how. It takes thirty minutes to write a quality article. If you wrote two an hour , you would make $11 an hour. If you worked eight hours, you would make488 a day, if they bought everything and you got $5.50 per article. Plus you can’t keep up that pace. One day I thought I’d try it. After three and a half hours and seven article, I was burned out. They accepted six of the articles for payment. Anyway, it’s a little extra money, immediately and it’s fun.
