Breaking 100!!
Moderators: Celeste Stewart, Ed
There's a price list with a pretty good ballpark figure for how to price your article. They have also made it so that you can edit your price if you realize you've made a mistake or just want to change it. I think it's under "submit articles"...and I've seen it somewhere else. lol but can't remember where.

Hey all!
JohnS ... don't edit me in the forum, I can write sloppy here, LOL. No offense taken, I'm just pickin at you!
I think someone asked about pricing low to reach nearly 100 (I'm still not there yet!) but no, not at all Kitagirl (I think you said it).
I signed up here at the end of July and by mid August I was really getting serious about writing here because to be honest, at first I didn't realize the potential here. $3000+ later, I realize it though.
There's no tricks, there for awhile I pretty much wrote for every single request that was posted and my articles sold, some like hotcakes. Sometimes it's like that if a specific category is hot or if a client really likes what they're getting from you.
My advice ... write for the requests or any topic that you're specifically connected to because it shows and that makes a sale too. You never know just 'who' is looking or what kind of content 'they' need.
I've heard some writers complain but there are a lot of sites on the Internet where a writer can make money, C-C is one of them. I'm self employed so I can't afford to put 'all' of my eggs in one basket so I spread my eggs about to earn a good wage. I work 10 hours a day and 99% of the work I do ... is from the Internet.
I know several writers here that do the same but if everyone passes the word around about C-C, we may be able to put all of our eggs in one basket because C-C is getting lots of attention ... we need more to gain more work.
I'm crossing my fingers that everyone will make the effort to help spread the word about C-C because I'm hoping that the new year will bring lots of money!!
