No, the only person capable of getting you a job is you. If you have the writing skills, there are jobs out there. It just takes work. lots of work. And as little begging as possible.

Do you mean writing content for publication on the web? If not, though, the approach is more or less similar. If you want to get paid to write, you first must be able to prove that you have the writing skills. You can only truly prove that you do by being published. If you want to get published, you must write in the way the publisher likes. Anyone who has this kind of job - unless they were extremely lucky and/or had their daddy give them a job - will tell you that they didn't get a writing job before they started to write, but that they had been writing for a while before they had anything published, and they had things published for a while before they were paid for anything. There's no guaranteed fast and easy way in, despite what some people will say. That means you will have to write, and have your writing used, and probably without any pay for your labors. But never turn down the chance of sending something for publication that will get you some money. Getting paid is better than not getting paid. You should never NEVER pay to have something published. There are more scams out there than anyone should have to deal with. Increase the chances of your writing being accepted. There are plenty of wannabe writers, but only a few of them are published. My suggested place to start: a place that has the kind of writing that you like to read. Most likely this will be one with content aimed at your age group and interests (the target audience). You already know about the subject, you already know the style of writing that's there, and you already know the kind of people who like to read it. Writing about something that you know is best. If you aren’t interested in it, it’s for people you don’t know, and in a different style to yours, you make yourself fail before you even begin. For example, if you write about electronic games, send it to a site for electronic gaming. If you write for teenagers, don’t send it to a place serving senior citizens. Etc. etc. Then study the style of writing that gets published. Follow the same style. Try to write something that you think the place needs, but hasn’t done yet. That might seem a bit basic, but there are plenty of writers who haven't studied the market and send their articles to places that their writing does not fit. All that increases the chances that you will have something accepted. When you have had enough accepted you will be able to show a portfolio of your work and hope that someone will pay you for it. There’s a lot to it. You have to be determined and do the preparation before it will all fall into place. And if you are rejected, try and find out why. Knowing why your writing wasn’t accepted is the key to helping you write better for the target audience and publisher. And you have to write, write, and write some more. Best of luck!

You can write niche content and make some money via Google Adsense or Yahoo Publisher Network. Both are pay per click programs.
