If you’re like most Canadian freelance writers, you know of more than one source of passive writing income that you can’t take advantage of because of lack of a social security number. Up until recently, Examiner.com was one of those scenarios.  But Examiner recently launched a Canadian edition. I’m the new Coronation Street Canada Examiner.

About Examiner

Examiner is a site that presents information on many topics. Guides are experts in their topic who run their own Examiner website.

The Pay at Examiner

The Examiner pay structure is based on page views and a rate that’s not published but is a combination of several things including readership / popularity. I have read about Examiners making a few pennies a day to a few thousand dollars a month.

How does Examiner.com pay?

Examiner pays you monthly via Paypal. If you earn money in the month of November and hit their minimum threshold, you’ll be paid around December 20

There is a lot of debate on various sites about whether or not the site is worth the effort but I won’t knock it until I give it a fair shake. That’s why I chose a fun topic. The soap opera I chose to write about is something that I watch for 30 minutes weekdays so to sit and write a post or two while watching my favourite show as well as getting to chat to others about it really appeals to me. If I make money at it—fantastic!

If you’re interested in becoming a Canadian Examiner or an American Examiner, feel free to visit Write for Examiner.com. If you find this post valuable, feel free to list me as your referrer: Dana Prince.

If you haven’t signed up for CloudCrowd yet, there’s still work to be done! You can work right on Facebook as and when you want (so long as there’s available work) and get paid the next day. In my first day on CloudCrowd I made $22 and was paid in the next 24 hours by PayPal but since then I keep missing the available assignments. I logged in today to see that they now notify you via email when you subscribe to be alerted about new projects.

Another great thing is that I earned $1.07 yesterday without working because people who have signed up under me did some work. My earnings comes from CloudCrowd’s end, not from the people in my personal crowd.  So conceivably, as long as you refer people, you can earn money.

The work on CloudCrowd:

CloudCrowd tasks vary. Some of them are:  grading website reviews, rewriting poorly written text, categorizing websites, etc. The way I see it, if you’re on Facebook several times a day anyway, you’d might as well get paid for it :) Join CloudCrowd :)
