Websites like Freelancer.com is full of potential clients who are willing to work long-term and pay you per hour. However, there is hard to make money online through that site if you are new and still doesn’t have a well-established profile with good reviews. On the other hand, you would even find yourself stuck in the middle of many writers who can write great proposals and offer bids that seem too low to even compete with.
Good thing, there are a few websites who are willing to pay you hundreds for a single blog post that meets their criteria.

Entertainment Websites
Listverse
Listverse is a good website to make money writing online if you can produce a unique and viral-worthy content. They accept 1000-word blog contents with 9-10 list about a trivia topic that is lesser known. They pay $100 per accepted blog and pays through PayPal. You simply have to create an article that meets their requirement and send it directly to them. They will let you know if your article is accepted and will pay you instantly.
Their sister website, KnowledgeNuts is great for starters if you can write a 500-word trivia content that will “fascinate” the editors. I wrote for them before and both my articles were accepted.I was paid $10 per article.
Cracked.com
Like ListVerse, this site publishes list articles (minimum of top 5 instead of Listverse’s top 10). Unlike Listverse, Cracked seems to care about their writers and is willing to guide them like they are their staff. This site has a forum page where you can interact with fellow writers and editors. If you are a first timer, it’s easy to get lost in their system but rest assured that the editors are patient.
If you are patient and willing to learn new things while writing online, I recommend joining Cracked. If you are active on the forums and determined to get your ideas published on their site, you would start earning $100 per article published.
