Not to come across as a jerk, but paying for Copyscape is probably the best thing you could do if it's actually important to you. The time you waste by using other content-checking methods is worth more than the $0.05 a pop Copyscape would cost you.
TextBroker offers services for a number of different countries including the USA, UK, Germany, France, Spain. There is also a Dutch version.
There may be more, but those are the ones I know off of the top of my head.
There are a number of boards that I have used to offer writing services, and I agree that sometimes it's difficult to get regular clients. However, you have to take what you can get, and the more clients you get, the more likely you are to find someone who wants to work with you on a long-term...
Well let's do a little bit of quick math with an example scenario. Suppose we're getting $0.05/word, we're writing 3,000 words/day, six days each week. Let's call it 50 weeks in a year for the sake of holidays and vacation or whatever, then $0.05 * 3000 * 6 * 50 = $45,000. This is giving you...
There are a few content brokers that I have written for that I would recommend to someone.
TextBroker seems like it's the most popular site mentioned in this forum aside from Associated Content. If you want to do well there, then get yourself a current Associated Press Stylebook (costs ~$25)...
I would personally recommend the premium version of Copyscape as an alternative over trying to game the system with a fake blog. The time you spend doing all of that to get around paying $0.05 isn't worth it.
My understanding is that Fiverr is a horrible place to do article writing. It's saturated, and the pay is low. Surely you have other options that will bring in more work?
I've seen a number of people say this on here, but it's simply not true. You can work normal full-time hours and make pretty decent money if you write well.
They pay very little upfront.
My suggestion would be to do whatever you can to improve your writing so that you can get to a higher level and get jobs that pay better. If you write an Open Order, then you can also send the client a short PM after your piece is accepted mentioning that you accept Direct Orders. This also...
I started out about five years ago writing part-time for Associated Content. I mostly wrote about chess because I was really into it at the time (rated ~1700 USCF). I wrote on and off for a little extra money, and I didn't take it very seriously at all.
A couple of years ago, Associated Content...
Depending on how long ago you wrote for them, prepare to get paid a whole lot less. Around 2007, you could get paid $1.50-$2.00 per 100 words on some pretty random topics. Now you will be lucky to get $3.00 per 500 words on random topics that they do not specifically ask for.
