Make Money from Articles – 34 Websites That Share Revenue with Writers

How You Make Money From Your Articles?
There are many Content Revenue Sharing Websites that allow publishers to make money by sharing Ad revenue. The concept behind revenue sharing sites is straight forward. You create a free publisher account on the website and add your content. The website will generate revenue from the ads displayed on the page. The revenue will be shared between the website and the authors. The share of advertising revenue you receive varies from website to website. Typically this can be anywhere between 30% to 100%.
Although most websites work in the above fashion, some sites such as About.Com, Yahoo Contributor Network or Demandstudios.com offer a slightly different, more rewarding revenue model.  However, not everyone is accepted and they are better suited for experienced writers . All other sites are open everyone.
It is also important to note that most sites on this list are highly ranked and receive many targeted visitors every day. In addition to revenue, they offer a number of benefits such as improving your online visibility, attracting vast audiences as well as generating valuable back-links to your website.
How Much Money Can you Make From Articles?
From my personal experience, the potential for making huge sums from a single site is limited especially as many of these sites rely on methods such as Adsense where the revenue potential can be limited.  However in spite of this, it is possible to take advantage of revenue sharing websites. If you publish a large quantity of quality articles and take further steps to promote your published articles, you can increase your combined earning potential manifold.
The following revenue sharing websites can help you get started in making money from your articles .
