Have you ever come across opportunities on the Internet to write articles for money? We all have. Sites like Associated Content pay you for articles, but only about certain topics. And if you go to a place like DigitalPoint to try and get people to hire you, then you will be even more limited in what you can write about. What if there was a place where you could write about literally anything you wanted, and get paid between $10 and $50 for that submission? A place like that exists, and it is known as Fortitude. You can really make money writing articles about whatever you want!

 

Before I go on, let me tell you a little bit of the backstory about how I found Fortitude. I am a member of an article directory called Qondio, and from the moment I joined it, I loved the layout, presentation, and structure of the website. It quickly became my favorite article directory, and on top of that, it was PR6, so the links from it have a lot of strength. Recently I got an email from the entrepreneurs behind Qondio, saying they had a new project, Fortitude. It is an online magazine that aims to get the best amateur writers, and pay them a lot for their creative work. As the CEO Nick Oba puts it, “By allowing our writers to choose their topics and paying them to write about whatever they choose, we are harnessing the power of passion.”

Immediately, my one objection to the project was, “How can they afford to pay so much?” There are two reasons. One, they do not pay for every submission they get; you have to make the front page to get paid. However, a sizable portion of articles make the cut, and as long as you put effort and creativity into your work, some will make it through for you too. Next, they have an algorithm that determines how many articles make the front page, and how much gets paid out, based on a number of factors, including their own budget. This means they never pay out more than they can afford, which is a mistake many other businesses of this type have made.

In addition, there is a fee of $4.99 per month to be a part of Fortitude. Personally, I am glad there is a cost to get in. If it was free, there would be a lot more competition to get to the front page, and you would also have a lot of inferior authors crowding up the system. A moderate fee of this size ensures a quality supply of authors, and gives the site a little extra revenue to work with. Plus, most people who join will be able to make that back many times over.

I’ve already written a few articles for Fortitude, and it has been a total blast. On other directories, I sometimes have to write about topics I am not particularly interested in, but there, I can do anything and get paid for it. That’s a great feeling. I haven’t felt this confident about an opportunity in a long time, and that is why I am so adamant about sharing it with you. At the very least, please check it out!
