Hello Everyone,

I heard some people saying that their clients pay them $150 per article.

Is it possible?
If yes, then where is that market?

You can check my articles in the link below.

Am I not trying in the right market?

or

Do I need improvements to get paid that much?

Please PM me or post your suggestions.

    Are you offering your services at any freelancing sites?

    You need to build a serious reputation to be paid the higher amounts for writing.

    Do you have regular clients who you can call on for testimonials of your work? Can you prove your writing has increased their bottom line?

    Do you have a specific topic you specialize in to the point where you can command that $150 per article?

    There are a few writing sites like Buy Website Content, Order Articles - Constant Content where I think the authors can charge a bit more. Are you a member at any of these types of sites?

    It boils down to marketing yourself.

    Wow...$150 per article. That is pretty steep. I pay my article writer $15 per, and they are top notch. DOn't believe everything you hear.

      I have news for you. There are article writers who do command this much for articles.

      It's not BS, but you do need to prove value.

      It's not much at all if you are selling something like solar panels, and one sale will make you thousands of dollars.

    Yes, people really do make that kind of money, but not for writing the kind of article you can "research" on Wikipedia and pound out in 45 minutes.

    As for where the market is, primarily offline. Brick and mortar businesses tend to pay a lot more for content than do Internet marketing types.
