Do you get paid for contributing to experts123?
Yes! All the Experts123 contributors get paid for the content that they add to the site. Revenue-share assignments get paid per page view, and work for hire assignments get paid a flat rate up front.
You have to be accepted into the paid contributors program to begin, and then once your account reaches $20, you will receive payment through your PayPal account.
Read the Assignments FAQ for more details about the payment breakdown.
Amy is right: Experts123.com does pay you for RSA articles. When I started writing here, they even paid on acceptance for special assignment articles (only a few of us were lucky enough to cash in on that), which was great while it lasted. Now all we have are RSA payments. What Amy didn’t mention is that you have to have, literally, hundreds of "clicks" on your articles before they start earning money you can actually collect. Amy is one of the top contributers here, but I seriously doubt she has earned the requisite $20 to collect one dime of her earnings.
I’m not complaining. Experts123 has been very good to me… in every way except monitarily. But they are honest and tell you exactly how many hundreds of hits you need to actually get a check.
I am the #1 contributer to this site (I’m not bragging; I just have way too much free time on my hands), with over 140 articles to my credit, most with more than 10 "likes" each, and would guess that I have had more hits than anyone else on this site, though I may be wrong. So far my RSA articles have not earned enough for me to receive a single paycheck.
Still, the folks here allow you far more freedom to write in your own personal style than does any other site of its kind (I wrote several hundred articles for Demand Studios, each worth $15, but I had to follow their Hitlerian guidelines to the letter or the editor would reject my articles; it paid, but was tedious as hell).
So don’t expect Experts123 to pay your bills or put gas in your car; it ain’t gonna happen. But feel free to write for the hell of it and enjoy the freedom they afford you. Besides, it’s excellent practice for the day that you land a paying internet writing job.
