Best Web Sites for Finding Freelance Writing Jobs

For the several few months, I have set Google alerts to notify me of sites that post new writing jobs for freelancers.  

By far, I’ve found that the sites listed below are updated with the greatest frequency, and contain the greatest variety of better paying freelance writing opportunities.  Without further ado, I give these sites the WriteSuccess Seal of Approval, and urge you to bookmark them (or set Google alerts as I do to receive email notifications that these sites have been recently updated):

Think I’ve missed any good ones?  Your suggestions and recommendations are always welcome!

If you’ve never set up a Google alert, you’re missing out on using a terrific free online tool.  Here’s how to receive automatic e-mail alerts on the latest writing jobs posted on the Web:

1. Go to Google.com
2. On the top menu bar, click “more”
3. From the drop down menu, click “even more”
4. Select “Alerts” from the top left-hand column of choices

You can set up your alerts here, choose how frequently you wish to be notified, and to what e-mail address you want notifications sent. I recommend setting up at least two different alert, one under “writing jobs” and another under “jobs for writers” (you can actually set up as many variations on this theme as you wish, and go back later to delete the alerts that aren’t bringing you the results you seek).  Then just let Google and e-mail do the work for you.
