Getting Hired

Make Your Application Stand Out

Explain what makes you an expert in the subject matter. As you list your qualifications, be sure to mention places, events, and happenings in your local area to demonstrate your expertise in a local light. In a month, or less, you will hear back from Examiner.com. Examiners are independent contractors and they choose what they write about and how much they write. Most examiners spend 4-6 hours per week writing for examiner.com, but there is no minimum currently in place to stay active.

How Much Will You Make?

The articles you submit to examiner.com earn per article view. Your articles show up as news in search engine results, so earnings often spike immediately after an article is published and then drop off over time. Make sure you include locations and helpful information to other people in your city. My experience is that earnings are approximately 1 cent per view. Because earnings are based on views at Examiner, be sure to promote your articles to get the most traffic from them. High paying keyword phrases are not as important as traffic.
