How much can you earn daily writing articles for others?

To tell you the truth, it all depends on your writing abilities. Being a native English speaker helps a lot as well as the work you are willing to put into it.

I'll let you know from the start, if you are not motivated enough - you will easily get distracted due to the boring subjects you might be getting paid for to write about. You need real determination to do this kind of job.

One of the best sites out there to get started with your article writing is fiverr.

Now, even though you might be able to earn $30-50 a day easily out there, I'm assuming that you'd want more.

So here's a tip: If you see a customer returning for another article, make sure you get their email and offer them even more of your services. Chances are, there's plenty of more work for you to do and this is where you'll be able to cash in the most money.

The more you write, the better you get, the more you'll be able to charge for your services.

Most decent writers out there start out with $0.01 per word, but like I said - the better you get, the more money you'll be able to charge for what you do.

In the end, all it matters is the amount of determination and work you put into the entire thing.

Other than that, you should be able to make atleast $50 if you put in a few hours daily in it.

Good luck.

There are at least three factors that can determine how much you can make as a writer:

1 - The amount of time you have to get the jobs done

2 - How fast you can get the jobs done

3 - How much you charge for your articles

Naturally you need customers but I know you already know that. So in my experience it comes down to productivity (time) and price. If you find a way to leverage either of those variables you will find that you can increase your income dramatically.

What you earn as an article writer depends on your own marketing skills for your writing services.

It's all about the markets in which you choose to compete.

This matters much more than your writing skills (assuming a basic level of competence).

If you choose to compete in the low-price markets represented by Odesk, Elance, Getafreelancer, Fiverr and the other sites mentioned above, and in similar threads, you're effectively labelling your work "Low Cost Writing" and you're choosing to compete with people who are living and working in countries where $5 is a full day's pay.

Many people with genuinely valuable writing skills start off with very low-paid projects, thinking that this will help them to move on to higher-paid projects. It usually doesn't, at all.

It's really important, I think, to avoid at the outset the mistake of imagining that it's sensible to "start off by writing for low prices" with a view to raising your prices after clients have seen what you can produce. When writing for online markets, it simply doesn't work that way: when you write for low prices you attract clients whose primary motivation is to pay low prices, and you lose almost all of them when you increase prices later.

It's a whole different world, but the advantages start with credibility, plausibility, professionalism and branding.

Writing articles for people is running a business. Businesses need marketing.

apart from fiverr, you can sell on webmaster forums as this one along with couple of other popular ones. pricing seems to be all over the place. over at fiverr, you will sell an article for $5 which is the rate there but fiverr will deduct $1 from your pay so you will actually get $4 for the job. there are plenty of people on this forum selling 500 words articles around $3 - $5 range with some charging more. good writers are hard to find for that amount of money but there are some decent writers providing good enough articles that serve the purpose. i see few threads on this forum with lots of positive reviews about the quality of work. you might dig a little deep and look at those service threads to have an idea.

if you are a good writer, then there will be no shortage of work, thats for sure. if you want to start a sales thread on this forum or on any other webmaster forums, then it is a good idea to give away a few review articles to established members in exchange of reviews so that they can review your service. if the quality is good, with some good reviews, you will have more work than you can handle.

Depends on how good you are and how you can sell yourself.

Those sell for as much as you can. And you very well and can write as well. If you write dirty, dirty you sell, you make dirty money. You write well you sell well to make you good money. It depends entirely on you. Alone will not make it good writing. You know how to sell it. Do you know where and how to sell is to sell.

I am not a writer, but the most I have made in a day from writing articles or press releases was $700. Got very lucky! Typically I will sell press release writing and submission for $150. I will never bid on any posting on elance odesk or scriptlance. It is a waste of time to even look at the jobs there!

Many freelancers earn much from article writing. They paid in accordance to their writing skills, how many articles they can produce a day and how effective is their write ups. But usually writers paid by per article or depends on the contract between the writer and the employer.
