Some tips to writing online

I've been writing a lot lately. It's been messy, so I've tried to focus my efforts. There's obviously the blogging that's going to be consistent for two more months until my research project ends. Since I get to watch a LOT of movies and television, and they're the subjects of a lot of online searches, I thought I'd make hay while the sun shines and try earning money.

Wish it were as easy as writing good pieces though. Especially when it comes to online writing sites. They pay 0.5-3$ for every 1000 views of all articles published by the writer. So it's not so much about the content as the searchability and the quantity of articles. But it's a good start because besides all that practice, it gives enough material for print and non-internet media to evaluate your potential and experience.

After a lot of trying and testing, I decided to settle on Suite101.com. The major advantages are the higher pay-per-thousand-views, more financial incentives for rookie writers or seasoned ones writing for specific categories, MANY learning tools, major first article feedback for EVERY category, and great collection of articles.
