Earn Six Figures as a Filipino Article Writer

Earn six figures as a freelance writer? It may sound impossible but it can be doable. Research shows that Freelancers (including freelance writers) are making up a bigger portion of the US workforce. An estimated 57 million freelancers make up for 35% of the US workforce.

But what does it have to do with Filipinos making money online as a freelance writer? Simple, if there are a lot of writing jobs in the U.S., then some of them may be hiring remotely or offshore. In fact, some foreign freelance article writers may apply to those jobs then hire cheaper freelance writers to write it for them. It’s like they applied to delegate the task at a much lower cost so that they can earn without doing anything.

Anyway, be sure to stay away from such middle persons and apply directly to earn more online. But of course, you may have some questions such as how to look for article writing jobs on the internet? Luckily, with technology, Filipinos can find article writing online jobs on many platforms and websites. Below are some of them:

Content Creation Marketplaces:
Constant Content
WriterAccess
ClearVoice

Freelance Job Platforms:
Upwork
Freelancer
Fiverr

Online Writing Communities and Forums:
Reddit's r/forhire
Freelance Writers Den
Absolute Write Water Cooler

Again, there are many chances for Filipinos to earn dollars (even euros) as a freelance article writer. In fact, there are even companies and content agencies that will hire freelance writers directly.

Word of caution though, the possibility of being scammed exists. Remember to be cautions especially for online writing jobs or pay that sounds to good to be true. Stay away also from low-paying gigs. The aim is to earn, not to be stressed (besides, if the pay is too low, you may be even paying more for electricity or data consumption).

That’s just about it, research and vet clients before accepting any work. Run if there are ridiculous requests like unpaid samples with unreasonable demands.

Be sure to unlock the full potential of being a freelance article writer by reading the link below to discover valuable tips, techniques, and resources for Filipino article writers.

Writing Sites that Pays (for online article writers)

Writing Sites that Pays (for online article writers)

Article writers today are lucky. They can easily make money on the internet from their article writing skills at the comfort of their own home. Because of technology, article writers can find job opportunities and apply for them online. On top of this, there are many online tools available that can help these writers with tasks such as editing and proofreading.

But some readers may say that it is not that easy. Article writers applicants still has to consider that there are other job seekers vying for the same job or position. That may be true, but good thing though is that while applying for an article writing job, these article writers can publish their own content on websites that pays and earn passively while continuing to apply for article writing jobs.

For instance, there is Hubpages. HP is an online publishing platform where writers can create articles and earn money through advertising revenue generated by their articles. But don’t expect to get rich on Hubpages, unless you are a prolific writer and have many viral articles enjoyed by internet users. Anyway, if you want to know more about Hubpages, read: Another Payment from Hubpages (by the way, they pay by PayPal).

However, if you are a serious writer, you may consider looking at FundsforWriters. It is a website that offers grants, crowdfunding opportunities, and contests for writers, and a freelance submission process for articles between 550 and 650 words. I haven’t really tried it, but I haven’t seen much bad things to say about the site. If you’re serious about making money on the internet, it might be good to checkout FundsforWriters, they say that it is about 10 U.S. cents per word, but better validate this with your own visit and research about the site.

In case you are into crypto and blockchain, you might be interested with Steemit. It’s not a purely writing site that pays, but its users can earn online money, or should I say cryptocurrency. Basically, it is a blockchain-based blogging and social media website where users can gain cryptocurrency called STEEM, for publishing and curating content on the website. If you haven’t heard of STEEM, don’t worry as there are numerous digital coins out there aside from Bitcoin.

That’s just about it. Maybe I’ll post about crypto next or how to make money with toys. Stay tuned and be sure to come back.

Ultimate Globe Cheap Prepaid Promos Tips

HURRY as these cheap Globe prepaid promos may not be available for long! This post explains and discusses amazingly cheap Globe prepaid promos that is suitable for online classes (students) and WFH (Work From Home) setup of online freelancers and workers. Nowadays, Globe offers numerous prepaid promos so be sure to select the best one that fits your needs and budget.

Globe prepaid promos are now super cheap that my current favorite one (GO50 for students) appears to be only 7pesos per 1GB. This cheap Globe internet promo can only be availed via GCash and its inclusions are below:

5GB for anything (browsing, streaming, app updates, online games, Netflix, etc…)
1GB GoSURF Free WiFi
1GB for Learn and Work (Google Suite, Coursehero, Zoom, WhatsApp, Spotify, Telegram, Wikipedia)
Unlimited texts to ALL networks
1 GCash Voucher
Free 3 months online class at Shaw Academy (courses include Graphic Design, Digital Marketing, Photography, etc…)

In fact, Globe’s GO50 for Students prepaid promo may actually be cheaper than 7 pesos per 1GB. However, the computed value is only from dividing 7GB from the 50 pesos. The unlimited texts was not included in the formula simply because I am more interested and only using its data offer.

The promo’s duration is good for three days. Basically, this means that the promo will expire on the third day and any unused allocation will be forfeited. Do not worry though as this promo is stackable. Some readers may not know this, but Globe’s prepaid bulk MB data offers (GO and GoSURF) are usually stackable (KUDOS for this one Globe!)

To put is simply, stackable means that any existing or unused MB of the last promo will be carried over to the expiration of the new / re-enrolled promo so that nothing is wasted.

Again, subscribing to another GO50 for Students promo will automatically rollover the unused allocation. However, for readers planning in using a different promo, be sure that it is another bulk MB offer to ensure that the allocation will stack to the expiry of the new promo.

As mentioned, this particular Globe promo is a great choice for online classes (students) and for WFH (work from home) workers or online freelancers.

As we all know, online classes need video (Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, etc…) which requires considerable amount of data. GO50’s 5GB open access allocation and that extra 1GB for Learn and Work is perfect for students. And if you’re lucky enough to live on those areas that has GoSURF WiFi, then you get to maximize that extra 1GB GoSURF Free WiFi.

Based on actual experience of two students enrolled in online school, approximately 3GB is consumed. One is only up to lunch time while the other is up to 4pm – and both are using Google Meet (Google Suite). Because of this, one does not have to worry about unused allocation as it would surely be consumed before the third day.

And on the rare chance that there are some left, then simply subscribe again to GO50 for Students as it will be used for the remainder of the week. Naturally, give the students a break after a tiring work week and let them use the remaining allocation since, this Globe prepaid promo’s allocation it can be used for anything (browsing, streaming, research, etc…)

Of course, the same logic applies to WFH setup and online freelancers because the promo’s allocation is open access – again, it can be used for just about anything.

Big files can be a part of online studies and WFH workers / freelancers if they needed to download something (things to do, tasks, etc…) or upload items (submission of output and / or assignments). When this happens, it might not be a good idea to use the allocation of GO50 for Students.

This is the reason why PPU is a good tandem for Globe’s prepaid bulk promo. PPU will not be discussed here due to it being extensively discussed on another post: Globe No Capping Unli Internet

However, for context, PPU stands for Pay Per Use. It is not actually a promo but a setting wherein users will be charged 15 pesos for 15 minutes if this setting is turned off. The purpose of turning ON this Pay Per Use setting is to protect the subscriber’s load from being deducted when they accidentally activated their mobile data.

It would be wise to use PPU for downloading or submitting big files to avoid unnecessary usage of the allocation of GO50 for Students. The technique is to:

Collect all the links and big files that needed to be downloaded or uploaded. This is to ensure that everything will be done in 15 minutes
Use another Globe SIM card with only 10 pesos load. This is to make sure uninterrupted / no capping internet for the next 30 minutes
On the other sim card with only 10 pesos load: turn off SurfAlert (to use the PPU setting), activate mobile data, then start with the download and uploads. Doing this step will give the user unlimited internet use for the next 30 minutes. If Globe’s internet speed is fast in your location, then those big files that needed to be downloaded or uploaded can be done in a jiffy.
Once the download and uploads are finished and the 30 minutes is not yet over, then its internet all you want for the remainder of the time allotted.

This is another cheap promo that I am eyeing on. Based on its description, it has the following inclusions:

6GB open access. Internet for Everything
28GB (4GB Daily) for Learn, Collaboration, and Productivity apps
7 days
Available only for Globe At Home mobtels

Although this Globe promo doesn’t have that much inclusion as GO50 for Students, it does have plenty of allocation for Learn, Collaboration, and Productivity. I am assuming that these ones will also include services for students’ online classes as well as tools for WFH workers and online workers.

Haven’t tried this one out yet due to my ongoing subscription of GO50 for Students. But will definitely try this one out after it expires since its total volume of 34GB for only 199 pesos is approximately 5+pesos per 1GB. Now that’s CHEAP!!!

Be sure to come back for more updates. For the meantime, feel free to check out the following informational posts.

Online JOB PROBLEMS for New Grads

Choosing an online career can be quite problematic especially for new graduates. A dilemma is understandable for people who already has an existing job since they have to consider different factors such as tenure, benefits, etc... but the same thing can be said also for new graduates. Although the factors are different from those who are currently employed, the circumstance is somewhat similar as there are also various aspects to think about.

An online job problem new graduates may encounter is competition. Similar to traditional workforce, online job openings are limited and can be filled up pretty quickly. New graduates must remember that there are also other new graduates. If these other new graduates cannot secure a position from conventional jobs, they would also be looking for online opportunities.

Competition from "older" graduates (or those from a previous batch) who cannot secure a traditional job also exists. Additionally, they may even accept a lower their rate just to grab an online project since they are vacant for such a long time already.

Another problem new graduates may have is lacking experience. Even online clients are looking for those that have experience or who can work with minimal supervision. Simply because they don't want to invest much time training and guiding new recruits to the online corporate world.

A career dilemma is another possible problem new graduates may have when choosing an online career. One reason for this is that they might feel ashamed from their parents if they cannot find a job (working online not yet that mainstream and some even have negative views about it) given the amount of money and time invested just to acquire that collegiate degree.

It is also possible that they would be downed by the fact that there is no job opening for their finished course or degree. For example, a computer programmer graduate may be forced to accept a data encoder job. Currently, online job openings flooding the market are Virtual Assistants, Transcriptionists, and Data Encoding.

These are just probable problems or realities new graduates must face when looking into an online career. It is still a job and like any other jobs, it is not simple or easy money. But patience is a major ingredient to succeed. Though a reliable client also helps in a huge way.

Anyway, for those who are still waiting for replies to their online applications and can write as good as the samples below

then give Hubpages a shot. Hubpages is a writing site that pays and is a good venue to earn passively online.
