What are some good (free) online resources for finding freelance writing jobs?
I all ready visit Writersrow.Com on a daily basis for freelance writing job leads, which often leads me to Craigslist.Org postings, but I am wondering if anyone in the Yahoo! Answers community knows of other sites that I can visit that don't require I be a member or subscribe to a service to contact people. I also try looking at MySpace Classifieds, my local online classifieds, Monster.Com, etc, but I'm usually disappointed with my results. What I'm looking for are the more "underground" websites - nothing main stream, that are safe and reliable sources for me to find freelance work. Because I refuse to work for a paycheck and I refuse to give up half my paycheck to put gas in a car that I, honestly, don't have. :) Thanks for your help!

Many online magazines look for freelance writers. The hard part of the deal is that you will initially work for nothing, in hopes that you can or will eventually be hired on as a freatured columnist. My suggestion would be to research what online magazines interest you and contact the editors from there. Have samples of your work attached and treat it like a "real" job. When they see you're serious, and you get a few things published from there, you'll have a better looking resume and at least some experience. Good luck!

If you want to make money online, go for freelancing jobs. The Internet has opened up many freelance opportunities, expanding markets and helping to build it into one of the largest economic segments for many economies. You dont need to pay to get the job. Development for freelancing has been especially high for software development, website design, information technology, and business documentation. Freelance practice varies greatly. Some require clients to sign written contracts<!--while others may perform work based on verbal agreements, perhaps enforceable through the very nature of the work. Some freelancers may provide written estimates of work and request deposits from clients. Get more information on the website. You can almost find any freelance job you want. http://freelancejobs.awardspace.com/ Payment for freelance work also varies greatly. Freelancers may charge by the day or hour, or on a per-project basis. Instead of a flat rate or fee, some consultants have adopted a value-based pricing method-->based on the perceived value of the results to the client. By custom, payment arrangements may be upfront, percentage upfront, or upon completion. For more complex projects, a contract may set a payment schedule based on milestones or outcomes
