The 5 BEST Writing Platforms that Pay Beginners

It's hard to find writing platforms that pay. Especially writing platforms that pay beginners.

There are scams. There are super-high payout limits. There are false promises.

In this video, I review and confirm **five writing platforms that pay beginners.**

I've split these five writing platforms that pay beginners into two different types:
1. Audience-based writing platforms that pay beginners. On these three, you post content and earn money based on how many people view it.
2. Client-based writing platforms that pay beginners. These two are geared around clients, who post jobs, that are then accepted by you.

I know how hard it can be to find writing platforms that pay, so I am giving you my guarantee: I have tested and earned money from these five writing platforms. They really are writing platforms that pay.

This video is about: writing platforms that pay, story writing platforms that pay, writing platforms like wattpad, websites that pay you to write 2022, free writing platforms, novel writing platforms that pay, content writing platforms, writing platforms for authors, best writing platform to earn money, creative writing platforms, fiction writing platforms that pay, platforms that pay writers, who will pay me to write, where can i earn money by writing, how can i earn money by writing, how can i get paid for writing

Quick update from the future (fev/2024): now Medium is now requesting you be a paying member to get paid... Which is so annoying like you need to buy scissors to open the scissors package.

Based on your advice in a previous video, I started writing on Medium. I have increased revenue each month. I love writing there.

I've been a 4-star rated Textbroker author for 14 years. In the beginning, there was plenty of work and I was averaging about $600 a week. But, unless you're on an actrive team that has plenty of work available or you have direct order clients, you will not find any work. There have not been open orders (general pool of assignments availablke to anyone in that star level) for months now, and the teams have dwindled from more than a thousand to fewer than 100. If not for the direct order clients that I've worked with for years, I would starve. I do think platforms like ChatGPT have killed freelancing to some extent judging by the amount of work available since last year. I've had several clients disappear for a while and reappear who have admitted they were using AI platforms for their content.

The requirements on Medium have changed a little, you need to be a paying member, but you no longer need 100 followers. You have to apply and Medium has to approve you.

I have been writing on Medium for awhile and this is the first time that I am hearing about having at least 100 followers thank you for the info. I had written to them before as I have had articles with many views but no pay. Now I know why.

I'm going to try a couple of these sites. I don't really care about the money. I'm a writer and I've rarely shown any of my novels or short stories to anyone else and this might be good practice to get me over my anxiety about getting my work out there. I started a book series last year and finished 3 books and have anxiety about publishing. I also have some other novels and short story collections. I just recently started thinking about publishing.

Thanks so much for this! I’ve been thinking for months about being a writer and having it as a means of income. It all seems daunting, plus the imposter syndrome and self doubt isn’t helpful, but you definitely gave some digestible advice.

3- Vocal

Omg 💕 you’ve saved my life! I tried Upwork and I had such a bad experience that I’ve not tried to do freelance writing in a while. I didn’t know I could just write what I wanted and get paid! And that there are platforms that could be better for writing specifically 💛✨

[hyperborean]

I found this video by chance and was amazed how well-structured and well-thought your comparative analysis was. Thank you a lot for the really useful information

[L.W.t.D.]

I’m on Medium and I absolutely love it. I haven’t posted I publications, but will post in them today. This will gain more followers for me and will allow my writing to be shared with others. Thank you always Zulie.

Thanks for this summary. I am a 5-star writer for Textbroker UK as well as their lead blogger (for official TB Expert Centre blogs). Having been a professional content creator for almost 14 years, I can say that TB is one of the best online platforms available. However, Open Orders have dwindled to nearly nothing (thanks to ChatGPT). Authors will only really survive on Team Orders and Direct Orders (which all writers to set their own price per word). Having said this, the only real way to make money with TB involves VOLUME. Without getting into details, there were weeks when I pulled over €700 euros. The catch is that you pretty much have to write about anything that comes across; requiring a wide knowledge base. Unfortunately, work has dried up in recent months and even Direct Orders are hard to come by. Here's hoping for better times...

The brush as a mic is quirky and I adore it... That needed to be said.

I’m a seasoned advertising writer and published author who is seriously looking to branch out into content. You are the first YouTuber I’ve seen who seems to be of, for and by the (content) writer. Fantastic, thanks. Subscribed.

I'm very new to freelance writing and had no idea those platforms existed. Thank you for the reviews Zulie.😊

The musical piece in the background combined with your particular pitch and yaw in voice is exquisite.

[courtnyroderick]

You have such a calm presence ❤ glad I found ya! Thank you for your time and work. I'm in a job program currently, in the early phases, just brushing up on skills right now. Started posting fiction on Medium again and the following is a slow but growing and it feels amazing. Not earning yet but I'm ok with growing naturally. I agree that selling creative work is harder. I've been experimenting with creative nonfiction and lyrical essays to weave my interests more outward. I would tell any creative writer like me that there's a way to bridge the gap! Just a little research and inspiration. Poets and writers magazine has a feature where you can look for the kind of magazine that match your writing style. I always get a ton of ideas from them.

Thank you for giving real honest advice instead of just giving us the mindset speeches 😂

[warpwarrior]

Been searching for almost an hour on how to make income from blogging/creating content online and first coherent breakdown of different online options. Thank you!

[thestorynerd]

I’m a fantasy writer and simly sounds right up my ally. Thank you! 😊
