Here’s the Shortcut I Took to Earning $100/Month Writing Online

Actually, I have more than one shortcut anyone can use

So you’re a writer looking to start earning some money online for your words. Or maybe you’re not a writer, but you still want to earn some extra cash online and you have a computer.

You’ve come to the write place. (Get it? Super dad joke vibes, I know)

Earning $100 in a month from writing isn’t like pulling teeth. Instead, I’d compare it to shooting an arrow. If you do it enough and aim in the right direction, you’re bound to hit the target a few times.

The first part of that is easy. Sit down and write an article — or piece of an article — every day. Sounds easy… because it is easy.

Congrats, you’ve started shooting your arrows.

Now, let me help you aim in the right direction.

Constant Content

The first place you want to concentrate most of your arrows is at Constant Content. This platform is always hungry for more articles.

I’ve sold articles on all kinds of topics and frankly, some were not my best work.

The more stories you write and publish on this platform, the more chances you have to make sales.

But the platform gets a lot of traffic, which increases your chances of making sales. Learn more about it below.

Copify

The second target we’re aiming at today is Copify. While you can’t just write away on Copify, requests for copy come in quite often.

The more requests you complete, the more you can earn. Simple.

Most requests range between 300 words and 1000. The more words you write the more you earn.

The only excuse for not earning money on Copify is that there were no requests. Which actually happens quite often.

Substack

An awesome feature about starting a Substack newsletter is it can double as a blog. Substack archives all of your previous emails on a blog-style website for new readers to go back and view.

These archived posts don’t have to be email communications, either. They can just be blog posts. Blog posts that can be put behind a paywall or integrated with some affiliate links. I think you see where I’m going here…

If you don’t, allow me to spell it out: I earn extra income via writing on Substack every month with affiliate links and paywalls.

The more you write, the bigger your subscriber list will grow and the more information you can post for readers.

Takeaways: $100/month is achievable

I only mentioned 3 platforms writers can start firing article arrows at.

There are a lot out there, and it only takes a little searching to find.
