TypeAMom.net is a place for moms to network and read more about parenting. They are currently hiring mommy bloggers. On Sunday, I got an acceptance letter from them. It has been a while since I applied, because honestly I had forgotten about it. The great thing about TypeAMom is that they currently pay 100% of adsense profits, so you won't have to share your adsense earnings at all, but you still get the increased traffic from blogging for a popular website.

Grading and Scoring Aptitude Tests Online
November through April, I stay busy grading aptitude tests. I grade these tests for two companies Educational Testing Systems (ETS) and Pearson. As an at home scorer, you are required to complete several hours of training before each scoring session. Training is paid. I personally earn $10-$20 per hour grading tests and it is one of my favorite ways to earn money from home. Their system measures your accuracy as you score tests. If your scoring accuracy drops below a certain level (usually 75%), you will be asked to retake the training. If your scores still are not accurate, you will not be allowed to score the project.

Writing for Squidoo
Squidoo is yet another place to write online and earn residual income. But, residual income is not the only reason to write at Squidoo. Links placed in your Squidoo "lenses" create do follow backlinks for your other writing. Squidoo is a wonderful place to leverage your articles by adding links in your lenses promoting your writing at other sites. Google recognizes these do follow links as quality backlinks. When the page rank of your Squidoo lens goes up, so will the page rank of the articles linked from it.
In addition to using Squidoo lenses to promoting your writing on other websites, you can earn residual income off your lenses as well. Lenses are usually slow to start earning residuals. Sometimes it takes up to a year. You can see your lens views and earnings by going to the dashboard and then stats for that lens. Recently, Squidoo added a feature that allows you to see your pending earnings on each lens also. Prior to this you could not see how much a lens had earned for the month until you got paid. Payments usually occur between the 10th and 20th of the month. To see the "pending" earnings on your Squidoo lens, go into lens edit mode. Click the "stats" button at the top of the screen. You will see pending earnings for the month and total earnings over the life of the lens.

Infobarrel
I put 4 articles on Infobarrel.com on September 8th and 9th. That was 1 1/2 months ago. My views and earnings are as follows:
Views Earnings Topic
106.....39 cents..Writing
185.....66 cents..Writing
30......00 cents..Consumer Credit
108....12 cents...Crafts
Infobarrel is a great place to write whatever you want. You can write in blog or informal style and earn some extra cash. If I have an article deleted from eHow, I put them on Suite101 if they are formal enough. If not, I put them on Infobarrel. The infobarrel website actually has a lot of quality writing. I am impressed with the websites development in a short amount of time. Payments are through Google Adsense, so it might take a while for payout. The minimum payout from Adsense is $100.

Writing for Bright Hub
Bright Hub is a new website hiring writers. The pay is enticing offering $10.00 up front payment + $1.00 payment per backlink to the article, and on top of all that residuals on the article too! You really can't beat that. The residuals can add up to a decent amount of earnings as well.
When initially publishing with Bright Hub, the title selection process was confusing. After being there several months, I have finally learned the ropes. Titles are available at the beginning of the month. Some "channels" simply give keyword phrases, rather than titles. At this time, the location of the available titles vary between channels. Some have them published under the channels writer community. Other channels have the titles available on a Google docs spreadsheet. However, in April 2010, Bright Hub is going to streamline it's article title selection process, so that may change.
If you sign up mid-month, or do not request a title at the beginning of the month, you may submit your own writing ideas to the managing editor of the channel. After your title is approved, you have until the latter part of the month to publish it. Bright Hub writing deadlines are usually a few days before the end of the month.
When you start you will have a lot of feedback from the editors about how to improve you writing according to Bright Hub's standards. I've written for other websites with editors, but I have never had so much interaction with them. Bright Hub has very specific criteria for it's writers.
According to the Bright Hub contract, writers must have a predetermined number of views by the end of their first year to remain a writer. Bright Hub articles rank well with search engines and get good exposure, so that shouldn't be a difficult task, however, new writers are limited to only 5 articles per month between all channels until they have reached proficiency. This level of proficiency is determined by a "score" that isn't clearly defined. Many Bright Hub writers have reached this proficiency level and are not capped at 5 articles a month.
