For those who are really looking for an easy way to make money from the internet, well article writing is one real way you can do so and you can do it from Nigeria. I have already written a bit on what article writing is about and it basically involves writing about stuff, in your opinion on a topic or subject of interest. The focus of writing an article is to captivate the reader's interest and be able to tell the world how you feel. An article can be subjective or objective but the bottom line is to use words to make a point. Article writing is much like essay writing we did in secondary school so everyone can do it, even if it's only with your primary education.


What you will need:
To be successful in article writing, you would need to:
- Be good in constructing sentences in English
- Have good typing skills
- Be creative

Ways to make money from article writing
1. Getting paid to publish: eg Google adsense, Chitika, Ad Dynamo and others. You would need a website for this.
2. Writing for large publishers: eg. Hubpages. No need for your own website
3. Getting directly paid to write: eg. as a freelancing contractor on sites like your own website, iWriter, guru.com, elance.com and others. No need for your own website

How do article writers get paid in Nigeria?
If you were writing for your site, you get paid by the ad networks like Google or Chitika by them sending you an international cheque you can cash into a domiciliary account

If writing for larger publishers like hubpages and so on, they pay mostly by paypal. You may also get those that can pay by means of Alertpay but I don't know of those ones yet.

If writing as a freelance contractor, you get paid by escrow as the market platform holds funds and payments for you and can send your accumulated earnings by means of cheque or bank transfer.

What are you waiting for?
If you really want to start making money in Nigeria with little capital, you can start writing today and make some cool money. There are even a lot of website owners in Nigeria today who are looking for article writers and can pay you in cash. So work on your writing skills and you will always be able to make money from article writing.

@Seyi
Sign up for a free website like blogger.com and write a lot of articles. Publish around 100 articles on a particular niche and then sign up for Chitika or Google adsense and you will start making some income

You can always make money with free blogs like blogger.com. Just register for free and start blogging. After about 50 blog posts, you can apply for adsense.
