UPDATE: Please go here for an updated list of websites that pays up to $300 (or more) for your guest posts.
Are you a freelance writer who’s tired of websites offering $1 for 100 words or $10 for 1,000 words? Well, there’s good new for you. I have a list of some good quality blogs and websites that pay you to contribute content.
I have already featured around 10 websites that pay you to write articles. But the problem is... they're either networks or big publishers so their acceptance rate is low and a good percentage of them accept only U.S./U.K. writers. That’s not all, you’ve to be an established writer to get into their network. And then I recently featured over 90 random websites to make money online for anyone and everyone.
Now today I’m going to focus on specific blogs or websites that pay you to blog. This time I’m going to exclude networks so you can contribute your content directly and get paid. In other words, these blogs will pay you for contributing guest posts and may even hire you as one of their in-house writer.
You do have to offer extremely high quality content to match their publishing standard but you don’t have to be an established writer. Some websites may give preference to writers who have an active social media presence.

Yes, that's right! It's the 7th Blogoversary of Minterest. I started Minterest (maheshone.com) as a personal finance blog back in 2006 and later in August 2007 I started blogging about "Money, Internet, Investing" (yes, that was the first tagline of Minterest and now as you can see it's -- tech. marketing. mashups.).
To be honest it was "Just another WordPress site" literally and I was simply rehashing topics that were of "My interest". But there is one thing... I was learning. I loved WordPress and that experience from Blogger.com to WordPress.org was awesome.
