First off, most of these sights pay with PayPal (they pay with check too but paypal is recommended for fast payments)

Then go sign up at one (or all) of these sites. I will give a little description of how they work money wise.

Triond

Triond is a publishing company. You can publish your English essay, a guide to a game or simply anything! Once you upload it, it is sent to Triond to be reviewed. The only reasons they won't accept an article is if its inappropriate, similar to another article, plagiarism or has too much spelling errors / grammatical too. Once published, you will earn 50% royalties from the ad sponsors. Once you get $0.50 they will pay to your PayPal account.

Day Tippers

Day Tippers is a site that pays for you to provide tips. You can submit tips, stuff that can help people out with daily tasks and problems and they will pay you $3.00 for every tip that you submit, to your PayPal account. Day Tippers pays amazing, but has a very high standard in the tips they accept. I submitted about 7 yesterday and 0 got accepted. Make sure you post high quality stuff that's very original!

Hub Pages

Hub Pages is similar to Triond. They pay to PayPal. Except you cannot upload stuff to the site, you must right in on the stuff they give you (very similar) and you earn points for the amount of traffic that you earn to your article. Hub Pages is teamed up with Google AdSence - this is a much better site for getting traffic.

Notes: The way you make money with the first and third is by telling people. Tell your friends, tell your family. Make a post or banner on your blog or website saying to read your pages and articles! You may see that you have only made a $0.50 revenue with a months work and quit. But you start getting more money for each article. Once a article gets read a lot, it may get published on the front page, and more people will see it, comment and you will get even more money!

Good luck!
