    Hi! What is the best way for a good writer to earn cash online as quickly as possible? Is it selling article writing services? Selling PLR content packs to other marketers? Selling short niche reports or ebooks directly to consumers?

    Due to some recent unexpected (and very large) expenses I've found myself in a position where I need to earn about an extra $1000 cash before the end of May. I can devote about 3-4 hours per day and have no problem with "hard" work.

    Any help or ideas would be GREATLY appreciated... thanks! :)

    Hello that's a big question and I'm sure there are many who will have different answers. Many based on actual experiences. There are people who pay alot of money for good unique fresh articles. I think there's some sites online you can bid on article writing jobs for people. Hopefully someone else will be able to tell you more.

    Check the warriorforum under warriors for hire, this should point you in the right direction. Please update this when you find any specific sites. Also google search ghostwriting services. I hope this helps.

    If you're really good, above the average I think is better for you to look for a decent blogging/social media permanent/short term job contracts. Running for the article market, competing with the masses and sell your mind jewels cheap...is that what you want, need and desire ?

    The best way is probably to go join some freelance sites like guru.com, elance.com, odesk.com, getafreelancer.com, etc. If you have writing experience and examples of your work, all the better!

    If you can meet the standard of Constant-Content, selling a few articles there can solve the problem. The average rate for a 500-words article is $80 to $100.
    The problem with getting writing jobs at guru or elance is that the rate is rather low, at 1 or 2 cents per word.
    You can consider joining Associated Content, and rewriting news articles for submission. I have seen a few ex-journalists submitting ten articles per day.

    You could write at Associated Content. They pay like $2 each article. A few years ago I used to write about 10-15 articles for them each day.
    It's a shame Ehow is gone =( I'm getting an extra $400 each month from them.. but there aren't many revenue share sites except for InfoBarrel, Hubpages, and Xomba. If you do well with keyword research, you'll could make a lot more..
