There are so many online sites where you can sell your content but it's not going to be easy at first because new content writers are under priced because they are still newbies on the job. Site like Fiverr will give you a very good opportunity to sell your content. Once you get a good rating from clients whom you had a transaction with, it's going to raise your possibility of getting job offers.

You can't sell Ready made content in fiverr, you can only post your services or get writing gigs if you're lucky.

I didn't know that. Thank's for clarifying.
For me, it's kinda difficult to sell a ready made article. I guess it is better to find those sites who are buying ready made article and look for what they are searching for or what article they are in need.

"Site like Fiverr will give you a very good opportunity to sell your content."

Isn't Fiverr based more on providing a service to clients as opposed to selling pre-made content? Most freelance writers on that site usually are quite general with regards to their services, posting offers such as "Will Write an SEO Optimized 500 Word Article!"

I suppose you could be specific and say you'll write an article based on a certain topic, and then sell off your pre-made content as original work, but I think most clients are going to demand a very specific subject within a general topic.

I think that you have put it better than I could and I completely agree with you on this. I'm sure that if the poster follows this process, there is every possibility of getting to sell his or her already made content.

Thanks for making my point more clearer for better understanding. I really appreciate that.

Hmm, good question.

Well, ready-made content is obviously going to be a bit harder to sell than just offering a custom service. The easiest option that comes to my mind is turning to a content mill such as Content Gather. They have a wide selection of topics to choose from, and you can upload pre-made articles to their site based on the topic you've written about.

The catch is that you don't get paid until a third party buys the article for use on their site, and that can either take a long time or not happen at all. I believe that depending on the level you're assigned (I think it's based on bronze, silver, and gold star ratings) you do get a certain percentage of the articles market price before it's actually sold, but I think that even for gold star writers the rates are too low to depend on as a stable income.

I've been submitting work in content gather and it's either they reject it outright or post it in the marketplace with no buyers. There's only a very few people buying articles there and they actually want the best and hard to do ones for a measly sum.

The thing about selling an already made content is that you may find it pretty difficult to sell as we don't have that type of scenario in the world of freelancing now. All you could be able to do is to have your blog setup for you while you continue doing the things that you want to write on it.

It would be very hard to find because content writing should be based on what they need, or based on what they specified. Maybe you could post it in platforms that are relevant to your content and see of they would buy it for you. i suggest that instead of creating content in advance, why not market yourself on sites that are looking for content writers.

Does anyone know any other site besides content gather? It takes forever to sell a posted article in that site.

I think all article markets are like that - it takes forever to get a sale. From what I understand with the prevailing condition of the market, there are few demands and most are for technical articles or specialization. But in fairness to Content Gather, they inform the members of a job request from the buyers like if they need an article about a particular subject matter, the length and the price that they are willing to pay.

Ready made content to me is a pretty hard industry - I usually only write articles that I've been commissioned for, because otherwise trying to find a buyer for a pre written piece is tough. Hopefully some other members here will have some suggestions, since I'm curious about this too.

You are very correct my friend, it's very hard to get one to buy one's already written content. It's not that the content is bad but it's because it would be hard for you to know the needs of a site owner before writing your content, so it's very hard to know the heart of others. The only way you can be able to sell such pre written content is by listing it among the jobs you have done, so if anyone desires them, he or she will request for it.

That's right - I'm not a mind reader so if I just write about content that I'm interested in or think is appealing, it might not work for a website out there.

Easier in my opinion to just be directly told what someone wants, and then work with that in mind.

Exactly. This is actually why there isn't much sites available where an already written content is sold because clients have different kind of requests that would be practically different from what a writer have written about. This is why such contents are very hard to sell online.

I agree in most of their comment, a prewritten content is hard to sell. You need to find a targeted buyer wherein your articles would fit their need. I have not tried selling prewritten content but if there is a place where you can post for buyers to see, I will be interested as well.

I suggest just work first on increasing your reputation on the field and make yourself get noticed by writing some blog posts or post in forums. If you have a good enough portfolio, the better, but it depends on which field you're interested in. It might be easier to get into specialized sites, comedy/satire, or small news pages.

I agree with the above comments. I think it's very hard to seel your already made content because most of the websites don't work that way, they want writers to make articles about what the buyers want.
If you think you're a good writer then maybe you should start working for these websites rather than writing articles then trying to find where to sell them.

The funny thing is I registered in a site last year its a content mill type of site in which theres a lot of demand but the price is very low, the problem was I totally forgot the name of the site. That's why I'm asking you guys if you know such sites. It's not Livingston Research nor Content Gather.

Well, there are like tons of sites like those, but I've heard about Skyword, eByline, Clearvoice, and Contently. A friend writes on Topwriterslist, and he says the payment rates are very low, but the flow of orders are pretty good. Maybe you can try to stop by on those, so you can check if it was one of them. Personally, I don't have an account on them, so I can't tell you how good or bad they are.

It's really hard to find a good site to sell Ready made content but from all sites mentioned on this thread I managed to get into 3 of them which buys ready-made content with a minimum 250 words at $0.01, $0.02, $0.03 per word. It took me 2 whole days to research which sites are good and which sites are not.

If I have a completed article I don't look for an aggregator. It is easier to search for "paying market" "$" and keywords for the article. Then you can directly submit the work to suitable paying markets.

Yes, would you kindly inform us where to find these "paying market". I am having a hard time where can I utilize my time as a part time writer. Some of the content mills are really frustrating and inhumane. I was once offered less than a dollar for a 600 word article.I can understand it of they are independent people who are striving to work it out in the SEO world. But these people are from companies. I can not believe that there are people who does not appreciate efforts from others. Sad truth.

I agree ready content sites take a bit of time to sell your content. I like them because the price paid is high compared to getting a writing client when you are still starting out. However you need to write on topics that are trending to get anyone to buy your content. People always look for content that is popular. At the moment I use article market and I have manged to sell a few of my articles. It takes a while though.

There are only 2 sites as of now which I think could be good earning sites when it comes to content making and selling, one is Constant Content and the other one is Crowd Content. I'm still going to do some research on "Article Market", "Merit Crowd". It's the last 2 in my list.

After 2 weeks of studying all the sites which supposedly buys ready made content. Not one of them bought my articles. I guess these sites doesnt really have buyers. They do have orders the problem is it takes 2 weeks before the article gets approved and worst the payout is every end of the month some do bi-monthly payments which is okay but the thing is they're paying so low that it's really not worth the time and effort.

A lot of sites readily accept content from new writers. Some of them however always review and rate the content to determine if it meets their standards. You have to be careful however to read all rights and regulations so you do not get conned. Also check for reviews from trusted bloggers for the sites you choose.

After months of research I now can conclude that there's no reputable site which buys ready made content. A lot are scams, shams. I reviewed 20 plus sites and worked on the more reliable looking ones only to find out that they're all shit sites. All ready made content buying sites are scams. Dont fall prey to them!

Thank you for giving us a heads up. I'm still new to this industry and looking for sites that are legit. It really takes time to research what sites are good for me. With this I can narrow my research down. I also think that selling prewritten content is not a profitable business. Because the clients has specific needs and your content may not fit.

This is a sad news for me because I was meaning to write articles for selling. Thank you for this information and although this is a discouragement, this will indeed serves as in good stead to be discerning with writing sites. I agree that scam sites are almost everywhere and the usual victims are naive writers like me. But I'm still hoping to find a writing site for my articles.

I've tried all the above-mentioned sites on this thread and all of them are unreliable sites. Some seems to be legit but they have a high withdrawal threshold and you won't be able to withdraw your money until you reach it, which you won't. I stopped looking for such sites because their all scams.

We appreciate your efforts and really taking time to check all the sites mentioned above. It must have been very time consuming for you. You really went miles and miles on order to check them all. It is just so sad that there are many sites that scams people who are driven to make it to the freelancing world. It is really hard to look for reliable sites nowadays. Freelancers and jobseekers should be very careful and keen to details that can be red flags for scam.

I have never tried writing articles for submission to sites selling ready-made content. I prefer claiming quick projects from content mills or writing for clients if I can find the time to write. They may not pay so much but at least I never have to bid or wait for a client to buy my work.

Sites like Constant Content prefer writers from first-tier countries. Crowd Content is a custom-content site so I'm not sure if it accepts ready-made content. After passing the initial tests, an applicant will have to apply for specific writing or editing jobs at the site (writing Best Buy product reviews, articles, etc.) by submitting a sample work based on the topics provided. I don't think it's a scam but it imposes stringent requirements for acceptance. Constant Content accepts articles and sells them to their clients. It is not a scam based on the experience of some writers who are actively posting in public forums. They pay as much as $150 per article but there is no guarantee that your work will be sold.

The funny thing is there's a lot of content mills which has a list of articles to be done and when a writer submits an article, it could be accepted and bought or it could be rejected. The problem is I've tried submitting 10 articles in one content mill site and not a single one was bought.

I also agree on that. An article which already done are more difficult to sell specially if that's not the one they are looking for. Right, get the topics that are more trending, everyone most talk about, from teens magazines, or even from news or better sell your article to popular people who make documentaries too.

Before blogging made it easy for anyone to be published online, writers had to create articles first and then try to find a market for them. Of course you'd need to have a target market in mind but that didn't necessarily mean that what you'd written would be accepted anywhere.

That's why I believe even if there are few sites where you can sell ready made content on the net, there are still numerous people who could be willing to buy articles that you've written. All you have to do is make a list of sites that might be interested in publishing what you've written and send them query letters asking them whether they'd be interested in taking a look at your article.

Nonetheless I'd suggest approaching only magazine editors. Unscrupulous blog owners could just steal your content and there's not much you can do about it.

There are a lot of sites out there who is looking and buying contents that they can also profit too. Surf into the internet and go into forums and join the discussion because it can lead you into the best selling place of your article. As of now that is the only advice I can give to you.

Ready-made content is so hard to sell. If there are sites that buy that or clients that buy that, I think it would take a lot of effort. First, you have to search for it and impress them because I am pretty sure that they don't spend their money easily because of that.
