December 2016 - Update

Merry Christmas; Happy Holidays!

Here it is, the end of 2016 almost, and about the most I can say regarding "freelance writing" right now is that I have not been engaged in very much of it myself, unless we want to consider maintaining my own blog(s) as something akin to 'freelancing'.

Mostly, I've been posting multiple paged articles at my "Just Saying My Piece!" blog, where I ramble about various trending topics and issues and offer my personal slant on them, and sometimes even offer my ideas and thoughts for solutions to some things.

I have also updated "MY LIST", highlighting in red those sites which appear to have become 'defunct', and in yellow those sites which are relatively 'new' to MY LIST. 

While some of these sites might be considered "content mills", I think many of them are seeking to build quality content collections in efforts to grab their 'share of the market', as it were, and many of them appear to be 'established', though sometimes that's tough to tell.

That said, I still recommend researching these sites and finding out for yourself if some of them might be a good fit for your particular goals.
Keep plugging!  

2016 - June Update

Not too much new this time. I did some more 'tweaking' on MY LIST, updating 'current status' of some of the sites that have gone-by-the-wayside, so to speak. 

Plus, I've added a few "NEW to list" entries, though I have not yet participated in these. Actually, I haven't been contributing at any of MY LIST sites, since I've been concentrating pretty much on my "rant blog" (Just Saying My Piece!) and some of my other sites.

Hope some of you are still plugging away at some of these potential opportunities for some residual and/or upfront revenues. Heck, it's not a 'get rich quick' thing, but it can be helpful, y'know?

Just sayin'...

New Year Updates!

Well, it's 2016 already, and it has been another 'while' since my last update here, so I decided to clean up "MY LIST" again.

As many of you likely already know, the online "content mills" are sometimes a 'fragile bunch', if you know what I mean. In other words, if a content site doesn't get the traffic it needs to sustain itself (and its contributors?), it just won't stay around very long.

As I attempted to clean up "MY LIST", I found a number of sites that are now "defunct": "404 Not Found", "Domain Name for sale", etc.




Like many things, the 'cream' rises to the top, and those 'cream-sites' continue to plug away at it; surely in hopes of maintaining status-quo...no...to do better than the status-quo, else they, too, won't make it!

In addition, the whole online content scenario continues to go through dynamic changes. With mobile technology and 'the Internet of Things' (IoT) growing fast, written content might become less and less in demand, thus, 'content mills' (etc.) will have to grow with them or fade away.

Anyway, have a look at the updated "MY LIST" if you're looking for sites that are still (apparently, anyway) engaged in seeking written (etc.) content.

It is still possible to earn ad revenue through some of the sites on "MY LIST", and we know the Internet is still seeking written (etc.) content, so we can keep at it...we just have to learn how to "roll with the waves", y'know?
Just sayin'...

It's Been A While!

Wow! Time does fly when you're havin' fun, doesn't it?  Ok, so I'm not havin' THAT much fun, but I try to make every day as "fun as possible" one way or another.

That said, I thought it way past time for me to update this blog, since my last post was in February (yes, this year!).  I have not been so actively engaged in too much further research into the writing opportunities out there lately; mostly because I haven't been doing much writing for other sites myself lately.

Instead, I've been trying to build up my own "web presence" with more of my own blogs; various topics, various strategies (seriously?), various everything, I guess.  I'm 'learning-as-I-go', pretty much, so it can be a slow process.

Anyway, I hope to get back into MY LIST pretty soon, to update that, since I have not done it in some time.  The way things like this go, some of the content-seeking-sites make it and some do not; so it needs updating, for sure.

Meanwhile, you can still use MY LIST for a 'launching pad'; just keep in mind that some things in the list might be out of date and even 'web page not found' category, y'know?
Just sayin'...

Best of luck; let me know in the 'comments' how things go, if you want.
Thanks.
