Does anyone know of an online company that pays a low rate for articles...?
I have been looking at an online agent that requests anyone who can write for low paid articles. They pay only six dollars for a 500 word article and must have three versions submitted too.
They claim anyone can write 17 articles for a lousy $300 a week.
If you sign up and join then they expect your to select a minimum of five articles to be written by a dead line.
Then you may choose which articles based on the keywords(title of article) they place on the list.
Has anyone actually written for them and how much did you earn?
Sounds like a scam or a very low rate of pay for amateur writers who want to make some extra money on the side.

That's not really a "low rate of pay", considering that a professional freelancer can write a 500 word article in about 10-15 minutes. That amounts to at least $24 an hour, if you're good. A good freelancer could complete 17 articles in under 5 hours, and that is by no means "low pay" for "amateur writers".
You have to be fast to be a freelancer. How quickly you write determines how much you get paid. The faster you are, the more you're worth. It's that simple.
