7. Verblio is a blog and content writing service. When I first started, I wrote for them. There are a ton of topics to choose from, and they pay weekly through PayPal. You have to take a test to be accepted as one of their writers. It's a great way to get experience and extra money on the side. Some writers claim they actually make a living working only for Verblio, but you have to work your way up the scale to make high wages. Pay starts at $11.50 for a 300 to 400-word post, and increases beyond that. They offer jobs from 300 to 3000 words. To learn more about working for Verblio as a freelancer, click HERE.
