Sites That Pay Guest Contributors





You may not be able to get a steady stream of paychecks from these sites, but they do pay for accepted articles from guest contributors. And, many offer a byline. This is a great way to build out your portfolio of writing samples without doing it for free.
As you can see, there is no shortage of places to find freelance writing jobs. A little perseverance will have you a new gig in no time.
You should be well-equipped now to get out there and produce some writing samples! Here, I have a few bonuses for you as well: check out Beyond Your Blog’s list of “Over 1,523 Publications That Are Paying Writers!” Then, if you need help sourcing freelance writing gigs or pitching to them, check out Gina Horkey’s free writing course, “Kickstart Your Freelance Writing Biz.” It’s a great email series available to beginning writers that covers writing samples, portfolios, finding jobs, and pitching. And, yes, it’s free! Pick it up here.

Important Tips

Follow the application instructions – provide links to examples, share your background and keep if brief. Watch for immediate disqualifiers like “Put ‘Color Me Bad' in the subject line.” Clients do this to ensure you can follow directions. Miss it and your email is going straight into the Trash.
