Once approved as a freelance writer, you will be assigned a dedicated, experienced and receptive editor. You'll get to work directly with your editor to hone your skills and build your writing portfolio, all while getting paid!
And about the pay....
Current rates range from $10 to $14 depending on the article topic. Writers know how much an article pays before locking it. (cool, right?)
Submitted articles are edited in batches of at least five articles. They will typically edit and pay batches within two days of when they are submitted for editing.
WiseGEEK writers are asked to write at least five articles per week, or 20 articles a month, on average.
If you would like to apply, you can get started online. You first submit an appilication (which includes a resume and writing samples). If your application is approved, you will then be invited to test as a writer for WiseGeek. This is done in 3 phases, and you will be paid during this testing process. If you pass the testing, you are then accepted as a writer with wiseGEEk.
