here's how I made $300 last month (working 4 hours a week)

- Write articles (around $150).

- Make something (script, firefox addon) for a client (around $100)

- Google Adsense (around $50)

How do you make money by writing articles, and what kind of articles? Are you talking tutorials on some tutorial site that buys them or are you writing journalistic reports for blogs/news industry?

Or something else entirely?

Anything i can write about.

I find jobs on forums, problogger, blogs that accept guest posts...

Nettuts pays $150 if it's good enough

Do you know other good places to sell articles? Every now and then I come up with what I think is a nice easy to understand explanation of something and I'd love to write it up and sell it. Wouldn't need to be for a lot of money, but if I could make a decent amount to cover some expenses it would be nice.

Usually the topic are in math, statistics or philosophy. Nothing a professional (or smart undergrad) on these topics wouldn't already get, but something for other interested people.
