Online writing job in Kenya

Article writing is a profession practice done by many people around the world
and many manage to earn a full-time salary online and from home.

The benefits of working online from home writing articles are many and
include having the freedom to set your own hours based upon the amount
of money that you want to earn.

All money earned online from home does not require the usual deductions
for travel expenses or food purchased outside of the home.

There is no need to have had journalistic training although this is of
enormous benefit as the standard of English and the grammatical quality
is very important.

Each writing task may have different keywords that need to be used within
the titles and content although these will be clearly stated within the
details of the assignment before accepting the job.

Online writing in Kenya is a job that many highly qualified individuals
would love to do but lack the opportunity or the resources.

We at ewriter, have made online writing from home possible by breaking
down the barriers of unemployment and enhance entrepreneurship in Kenya
from receiving payment online.

Payment Issues

We pay by MPESA.

Most writing jobs online only pay via PayPal which makes it very difficult
for Kenyan online writers to receive payment.

ewriters pays Sh120 for every approved 400-500 word article by MPESA.

Any work carried out for the Kenya ewriters will be paid for every week
and is subject to approval by our editors.

Do you have the skills?

Writing articles may come naturally to some people whilst may need some
practice by others.

However, the standard that we expect is very high and we urge that only
those with a strong written command of English should consider applying
so that you do not waste our time or yours during the article approval phase.

To be fair, if you feel that you are capable of writing quality content
and want to make hundreds or thousands of shillings a day, take our
entrance test and see if you have what it takes to become a ewriter
article champion (or queen of course).

How do I Join?

Firstly, sign up for your M-pesa and then simply take our writing test to demonstrate
your ability and you could be earning cash online without leaving your home.

Remember to first let’s know if you have an M-Pesa No before taking the test.

Then, after will send you our invoice to enable you make claims for
payments after a week of working. We will reconcile the invoice and
make payments immediately.

If you are interested apply using this email Address keithwilliums@gmail.com.

4 sites that pay you to write as a Kenyan freelancer

With the increase in competition in the job market, being able to secure a well paying day job can be very hard. Here's a look at 4 top sites that can help you as a freelancer in Kenya earn money on a part time basis:

Odesk.com - This is a site for global freelancers and there are a lot of Kenyan freelancers who are through Odesk. What exactly happens at Odesk, is that you as a contractor bids for an advertised writing gig and if selected you work and get paid.

Hubpages - Hubpages is a good site for a long term ambition. At hubpages, you write about any topic you like and they you earn is by applying to Google AdSense. You are paid 60% of the revenue that your ads generate.

Kenyaplex.com - This is a Kenyan site and is best suited for students because you just earn "pocket money" and therefore not well suited for the Kenyan freelancer who has rent to pay, but a few coins and educative material won't hurt!

Uvorcorp.com - If you are familiar with academic writing, then signing at this site can guarantee you good money as a Kenyan freelancer.

Freelancing in Kenya is becoming a lucrative activity, with faster and cheaper internet connections and I believe the Kenyan freelancer can make a living out of freelancing.
