Websites for Publishing Writing
Are you looking for a new website to publish your freelance
writing? Many websites allow you to make money by publishing online,
including writing articles, reviews, paid forum posting, or poetry. As
you probably know, there are websites that pay a hefty sum for writing
and websites that pay pennies for hours worth of work.
That is why I have created this list of 101 websites for the freelance writer. (Since it's creation, it's grown to many more than 101 websites and gets bigger every month.) The list has the ranking feature. If you have experience writing for one of these websites, you can help make this list great by voting for your favorite website, or leaving a comment about a website that isn't current in the list. To vote on a writing website, simply click the up arrow to the left of the website link. Finally, some of the links direct you to reviews of the website to provide you with more information. The review will always provide a direct link to sign up at the freelance writing website, if you wish to do so.

Residuals
says:
wow! This is links galore...Thanks....Great lens.....Upfront is my choice...
says:
Residuals, cause I think better if we get the fee based on what we done.
deepa says:
residuals are best
ScentsWithBling says:
I am just getting started and can see the benefits of both. Really can't pick a side yet

Upfront
fathomblueEG says:
i say both because having several streams of income is better than one.
rihannsu says:
I've been working mostly for upfront pay. Squidoo is my first foray into revenue share.
gonweller says:
Both, but I get whatever makes sense
long term. Obviously, it's easier to get a nice solid one time payment
for full rights on an article somewhere like Constant Content, which
happens to be one of my favorites.
gonweller says:
Yes...both ;)
