BFly1 How Can A Teenager Earn Money Online For Poetry Writing?

If you’re fortunate enough to have been blessed with a talent for poetry writing, why not try to earn some money from it? As many experts will tell you, earning money from your hobby or passion is one of the best things that you could do. Because who knows? Maybe one day you can turn your passion for your hobby into a full-time living. So if you’re wondering how can a teenager earn money online for poetry writing, you could be on your way to earning a living from something that you love.

So to answer the question how can a teenager earn money online for poetry writing, one website you can submit your poetry to is AC. AC is a website that will pay you upfront for the poetry that you submit to them for publication. In fact, they will pay you anywhere from $3-$20 for your poem. Moreover, they will even pay you ongoing residual payments for your work. So not only do you get paid an upfront payment for your poetry, you can also earn money month-after-month for life! Not bad for doing something you enjoy.

In order to get the highest payment for your poetry at AC, make sure that when you submit your poem, you submit it as an exclusive. By submitting your poem as an exclusive, you’re telling AC that you have not published your poem elsewhere. when you do this, you will receive a higher payment for it.

Signing up for AC is quite easy, however, to earn money through AC, you will need a Paypal account – as they currently only pay through Paypal.

Also, if you’re wondering how can a teenager earn money online for poetry writing, another website that you can check out is Online Publishing. At Online Publishing, a teenager can earn money online for poetry writing through the residual income that they pay you each month for page views. Online Publishing doesn’t divulge exactly how much you’re paid, however, they promise that the more page views your work receives the higher your payment will be. Therefore, to earn more, you will need to market your article the same way I discussed in How to Earn Quick Money Writing Essays. Online Publishing pays you via Paypal and in this respect, they are similar to to AC. However, overall, if you want to know how can a teenager earn money online for poetry writing, AC is your best bet because they not only offer you and upfront payment for your poetry, they offer residuals as well.

    i am 15 and i write some poems and i dont know what to do on the web pages that u listed is there any that you can be 15 and still make money for writing poems.

    let me know.
    thanks

  3. Admin says:

    Hey Serjey, sure you can make money from your poems. Just sign up at the websites listed above and start submitting your stuff. It’s easy, trust me! :)

    Amber

  4. serjey says:

    i did but it doesn’t help it sais $0 , it also sais that only over 18 you can get paid, under 18 you get nothing. or should i start an acount i have paypal acount and i need to make some extra “pocket money”

  5. Admin says:

    With AC you do need a paypal account to get paid by them. And I don’t think that they’re going to check to see how old you are.

    As long as your work is good then, that’s the most important thing. If age thing is really an issue, then try to get your parents or an older sibling or other relative to help you. Get a little inspiration from reading this story.

    After you sign up with AC and submit one of your poems to them, they will reply back to you and tell you how much they can offer you for it. Then, you can start earning pocket money from your poems. Try it to see how it works.

  6. Hi people!!!!
    Jees Ive been looking paid writing websites and it is hard to find them. But luckily i have found a few. AC is one. And another three are:

    www.hubpages.com – uses google adsense for payment!!!
    www.helium.com – another paid website (SERJEY YOU DONT HAVE TO BE 18 ON THIS WEBSITE!!!!) also uses paypal!
    www.triond.com – another paid writing website uses paypal!

  7. Amber says:

    Thanks Shafi for the tip. I was aware of the other sites you mentioned but I wasn’t aware of triond.com. Come and share some more of your tips on our forum here: teenmoneymakingideas.com/community

  8. AC doesn’t pay upfront for poetry. They pay upfront for articles, but not poetry or prose. Additionally, you have to be 18 to receive payment from AC as well. I love AC, but I don’t want anyone to be surprised when they discover they can’t get paid until they are 18 or that poetry will not pay upfront.

    Keep writing!

    Love and stuff,
    Michy

  9. tishawn says:

    hi my name is tishawn and iam just woundering if this is a real deal or just a scam because I have been writing poems for almost my whole life. so if someone can fill me in on something that will be very kind. Thank You

  10. Amber says:

    Tishawn,

    You will be paid based on the amount of views that your poetry generates. If your poem generates a lot of views then you will make that much more. At the same time if your work doesn’t generate a lot of interest, you don’t make as much. That being said, even if you don’t make a lot, you’re still getting paid for something you love and already do. I think that’s a pretty good deal.

  11. Robert Seabrook says:

    There were two websites on the list, AC and online publishing. I was wondering wich one most people like more.

  12. holly says:

    where and how exactly are you doing these things? how is the money coming in and where to, where are you posting this ‘poetry’

  13. linh says:

    so if your under 18 you won’t get paid?

  14. Amber says:

    linh, right. You have to be 18. BUT, you could always get an older sibling or a parent to help you out and have them sign up for the account for you. And they can collect the money for you.

  15. tiffany says:

    what you don’t get is, AC doesn’t pay people under 18… trust me, i submitted a BUNCH of things on there and each one said i couldn’t receive payment until i was 18 … it sucked!

  16. Amber says:

    tiffany one thing you can do is get an older sibling or relative to sign up for an account and then submit through them and pay you the money you make.

  17. asma says:

    hhiiiii
    I am 18 and want to know, if i send you the peotries? is there a selection process, do you have a genre, or I should just write and send them to you?
    how would you pay me?
    thanks
    ASMA

  18. Amber says:

    Asma, what you’ll need to do is go to the AC site and sign up. You can do that by clicking on the link for AC in the article above. They pay you via paypal and you can write in any genre you like. Good luck!

  19. luvme says:

    dnt hv a paypal acccount…infact no bank account…dont any sites pay the users directly through post or something…

  20. Amber says:

    If you want to make money online then at the bare minimum you need to get a paypal account and a bank account. These are the methods that a lot of sites use to pay you. A few send you check thru the mail but then how would you cash the check with no bank account?

  21. Simran says:

    hey guyz!!!
    i m 15 n wanna earn money n i was totaly excited wen i saw dat i can earn money by publishing poems as i already have 2 wich r not at all published. but i have dis little prob….paypal!
    cummon i dunno all dat bussiness of d bank accounts n all dat! i mean if der is any other way u can pay plz let me knw i will b obliged 2 give my poems………

  22. Jeff D says:

    Amber, You don’t necessarily need a bank account to cash a check. You can always cash the check at the bank it’s drawn from with an ID Card or Driver’s License. And there is another really good way for teen-agers to earn money without spending $$, It’s called Article Marketing. You can easily make A LOT of money just by writing articles about your favorite products! How hard could that be? In fact, you don’t even NEED a PayPal account! :)

  23. Amber says:

    @ Jeff, thanks for the reminder about the alternative way to cash a check. And you’re right! article marketing is a GREAT way to make A LOT of money! :)

  29. tinku sher says:

    sometime I laugh sometime I cry
    looking up at the sky
    all I see god looking at me
    still don’t know whats wrong with my life

  30. Amber says:

    Hey tinku, nice poem!

  31. Amber says:

    @Gerry, did you read this article?

  32. akshita says:

    is it assured that i’ll be paid for my poems?I’m jst 13 bt surely i can get my parents to make the account.I hope this isn’t a scam or fraud cuzz it really hurts when ur cheated.and do the Ac pay to Asian countries also?

    • Erica says:

      @akshita You will need a PayPal account in order to get paid. PayPal only allows those who are 18 years old and above to register for an account so you might want to get the help of your parents for that. To be sure you can look around AC and get a feel of the site so you'll know what to expect before signing up for an account. Let us know how that goes; we'll be happy to help you with your other concerns if any :)

  33. Sushant94 says:

    Well doesn't AC pay per click? i mean, that same old system where a massive 1000 views give a dollar? I made an account on AC! got a poem published but then had just 2 views! making friends is just time consuming! so is selecting favourites and all! I wanna know how do you get payed just for publication! I don't find that on AC! So is there any special check box or an option i gotta choose? Help! (asking this cuz this article claims a pay of 3-20$)

  34. @Vernalysa says:

    hi i am 18. i have loads of unpublished poems and i wanna get get published and earn money as well. haven't checked AC yet, but i shall try definitely. but i would like to know how they can pay just for publishing, where the money comes from.
