All the best..
 
Yeah about.com have been paying writers for articles for awhile now. You must have good writing skills and pass their test.
 
Monthly I think.

"Guides in their first two years must publish four articles every month with gaps of no greater than 14 days between articles, and update their blog one to three times every seven days."

"Contributing Writers commit to publishing at least 12 pieces of content every month."

And the best part they saying: "On average, a Guide in his or her first two years will make between $675 and $1,200 a month. The average Guide compensation is around $2,000 a month, though many Guides make up to $6,000 a month and beyond."

So, if you have enough skills, it will be very easy to write for about.com.
 
I'm still waiting for my application to be reviewed...would be actually pretty cool to write for about.com :)
 
Don't waste your time. They only hire professionals with tons of years of experience. I have years of experience in the fields and in writing/blogging, and Ive still been rejected multiple times.
