I took a look at RealWritingJobs and they seem to be good. You can sign up for a trial and cancel if you decide you don't like them.

I was reading through your articles and finding a lot of great information. Thank you for the help.

I have done some mystery shopping but stopped temporarily to concentrate on my “real job.” I still want the option of earning money as a “solopreneur” just like you (I’m planning on purchasing that book and the mystery shopping book soon) – thanks for being an inspiration.

One question. The link on your site to Real writing jobs.com looked interesting, but it is a paid subscription – Did you post this link and is it a good resource?

Thank you again.

I think the 2009 date is a typo. However, there is another excellent book about writing for eHow: How to Earn Passive Income at eHow. I have read and used both books, and found them equally valuable.

Hi Kathy,

I just went to order Janet Ford’s book and received the following message:

” I’m sorry but How to Write for Ehow has been temporarily taken down in anticipation of the release of my updated edition. I expect this new edition to be available approximately 11/2009.

Please check back often for updates to this highly anticipated release. You will NOT be disappointed! ”

Since the new edition was due out almost a year ago, is there a ‘new’ edition?

Diane

dear Cathy,
I am writing from Italy, and really appreciate your tips, even if sometimes, being US centered, are difficult to adapt to Italian reality, that is rather different in several aspects. However the basic facts are the same and I treasure all your advices. Do you think that some US companies will be interested in a foreign mistery shopper, doing misteries on their behalf in Milan and Northern Italy? I am working for many Italian companies and research institutes, but would love to work with foreign companies also because writing reports could be a way to polish my English,
thanks
Mirella

Nick, glad the blog is useful to you. Thanks!

There are many sites that will pay you to write. In my opinion, eHow is one of the best, but everyone has a favorite. You might look at Examiner, Suite101, Helium, et al.

Good luck!

Cathy, love your blog…..I was wondering what other companies or websites that will pay you for writing for them? Any further information that you share would be very helpful.
thanks

No, there is no fee to write for eHow. You must have a PayPal account (which is free) because that is how they pay you.

What is neat about eHow is that you make residual income. I wrote a few articles and put them up several months ago. Even though I haven’t been adding any new ones, I still get paid every month because those articles are earning money for me.

You might want to check out the ebook I recommend in the post. I found it useful in getting to know eHow.

Kathy,

A few years ago I took your class on “How to Become a Mystery Shopper” and I thought it was interesting but as of yet I have not become a shopper (I have your book). I find your information very valuable. My question is: is there a fee to get started on eHow? I enjoy writing.

Oops. It appears that the ebook I originally suggested is no longer available. There is another ebook I got when I was getting started that was a great help. I have changed the links in the article to go to Janet Ford's ebook, How to Write for eHow. It is an excellent resource. I used both ebooks when I was learning about eHow.
