The pay is Sh. 50 per article and workflow is constant. For those who are very good we can give special projects that may pay even up to Sh. 75 per article. Therefore 50 is for regular daily articles and special rates for special articles for the best writers.

To make the long story short, here is the email that I am going to send to all those who are interested. Therefore if you read the below and are still interested then send the sample and if it impresses me work starts immediately.
Hi,
Thanks for the interest in article writing.
You'll be given a set of instructions for each article and are to adhere to them to the letter.
The general things that you need to note are the following:
• Never change the keywords. If the keywords are "white apron" then let them remain that way, not "white aprons" e.t.c. They need to be kept intact.
• Always meet the word count. If instructions say 400 words, don't write 399, 400 should be least, though you can add if you want.
• Spread out the keywords, don't let them all pile in one paragraph or one part of the article.
• NEVER REPEAT 5 CONTINOUS WORDS FROM ANY SOURCE UNLESS IT IS A PROPER NOUN E.G. NAME OF A PERSON, PLACE, INSTITUTION E.T.C. EVERYTHING ELSE SHOULD BE PARAPHRASED.
• Always use the active voice in the articles...not passive. You can google that for more clarification.
• Don't send any work without doing spell and grammar check.
• Let your work have good flow and be interesting to read.
• Choose attractive titles whenever you're not given topic
• Avoid writing "I" in any article
• Payment is 50 bob per 450 words. Note that we go by the instructions therefore if instructions said 300 words and you wrote 400 words, you'll be paid for 300 words. I have special tasks that I may assign once in a while and these may go up to even Sh. 70 per article.
We have guys earning up to 16k a month since they do 10 and above articles a day. It is work which you can do as part time or straight from your home so no hustle. Remember you need an internet connection and a computer.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Write for me one 300 word article with the following details so that I can see your understanding of the above.
"Title: Tips of the main admission tests of London School of Economics
Keyword: Uk University Admission Exams"
Instructions:
1. 300 plus words.
2. Keep the title same as original.
3. Use key word 4-6 time in article body. Make it bold in every usage.
4. Save the MS word file with the title given

Kshs 50 is way too low. Some magazines/publishers can pay that much per WORD let alone for 300 words...
Even the very prolific writers you speak of, who earn 16k per month, mist be doing that full time and not part time. To write even 4000 (edited) words a day is quite an effort.
Anywy, good luck with whatever you are doing. Perhaps share a link at some point.

@Pierce and Djinn
Thanks for the opinion. The rate keeps going up as you progress. Most freelancers start off earning a dollar per 500 words, as you go on the rate increases. I share the kadollar or slightly more with my writers. If it was for a magazine/academic writing probably the rate would be high as you've stated. That is because there are only a limited number of writers for those. As for online article writng, there are way too many freelancers doing it so rate is low at the start.
Like I said better rates will be coming as we go along. Watch this space!JOIN MY FREE MINI-COURSE FOR WRITERS. CLICK HERE

50 bob per a 450 words article is a big joke!

For some that sh 50 per article is a joke or even an insult but for some it may be a path to bigger better things. For some the pay may not even be important but the avenue to expose their talent and work. For some they may not any job, so instead of lazing around surfing FB the whole day why not do something constructive. Lets not discourage others simply because we think the pay is not worth our time.

@Mpenzi you are right it follows the same concept why u do unpaid internship you write for 50 bob and learn what this online writing jobs are all about and you begin getting the jobs yourself.A seasoned writer just needs 2 hours a day to write 10 articles making it 500 a day make that in 30 days gets u a clean 15,000ksh.
