The best exchanges for copywriters
Etxt.ru
Text.ru
Miratext.ru
Contentmonster.ru
Work-zilla.com
Work-zilla.com– you can find my detailed review of this resource in the article where I talked about it. There are also many orders for copywriters on this site.
Monica.pro is a young resource that is confidently gaining popularity. Compared to other exchanges, its main advantage is that there is no need to search for orders. You choose the topic that interests you the most and write articles, which is not a copywriter’s dream? Next, the editors either accept your work or ask you to revise it.
The requirements for texts and design are quite feasible. The cost of 1,000 characters varies depending on the chosen topic from 40 to 60 rubles for beginners. With constant cooperation with the content workshop and high-quality work, the cost of 1,000 characters can rise to 120 rubles.
- Register.
- Take a test on your knowledge of the Russian language (spelling, punctuation, syntax).
- Attach your article on the chosen topic and write a short essay about why your articles can be useful and interesting to readers.
- After successfully completing all tasks, you receive an invitation to join the team of workshop authors and you can start creating.
This resource offers a very convenient payment system where you can withdraw your earned money both to an electronic wallet and directly to a bank card.
If you think that making money always means getting up early for work, physical labor, routine, and so on, then you are mistaken. A method that is based on writing articles is gaining momentum on the Internet (and has been for quite some time). Ultimately, people can sell them using the best article exchanges on the Internet.
Based on all the progress, quite a lot of resources have appeared on the Internet where this type of income is assessed and people receive money for what they write. Consequently, it is very difficult to understand such services, since there are many of them. Some have excessive requirements for texts, others have few customers. What to choose in the end? Now we will figure it out by considering all the disadvantages and advantages.
The first exchange I would like to highlight is ETXT.RU. Perhaps this is the most adequate and acceptable article exchange on the network. Accordingly, one of the most popular. There are quite a lot of customers registered on the resource who buy articles and place various orders.
On ETXT.RU the average fee for 1000 characters is 30-35 rubles. This resource is ideal for those who are just starting to join a large company of copywriters. There is a system in the form of a user (copywriter) rating. At first, the newcomer will earn small amounts, and the attitude of customers towards them will be more loyal. But more reputable copywriters with a high rating can choose orders and sell their articles at higher prices. This means the price is 35-40 rubles. So, if you are a beginner, then ETXT.RU is a great option to start with.
The next exchange, the second one I would like to mention, is . A very good exchange, by the way. It is attractive because payment is made in dollars, and the number of characters is taken into account along with spaces, which, as a result, increases the cost of the article. In addition, earning in dollars is now more reliable. On the service, it is possible to write comments for money and other interesting tasks for which you will be paid.
The only thing that can stop you is constant moderation. Each article is checked. Therefore, to stay afloat on Advego, you need to write very good text.
TEXT.RU– this is the third exchange that I want to tell you about. Both rewriting and copyright are welcome here. It will be especially useful for a beginner to start here with a rewrite and evaluate their capabilities. If you feel like you are no longer new to this business, then accept orders and sell your works at higher prices.
Unfortunately, despite its attractiveness, there is little work on this resource when compared with previous services. But you still won’t be left without work.
Another fairly popular exchange on our list TEXTSALE.RU. There is no moderation of articles on it, which simplifies the work of many. Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether you are a beginner or a professional copywriter. There is enough work for everyone. Payment is made in dollars. There are few customers, and they don’t pay much. Therefore, selling an article here is a matter of time.
And the last, fifth exchange in our list of TOP -5 best article exchanges - COPYLANCER.RU. This exchange is for more experienced copywriters. On it you can write articles yourself and sell them, as well as accept orders. Beginners receive 20-25 rubles per thousand characters, a kind of copywriting exam. If you do a good job, you can receive orders for 100-150 rubles per 1000. There are payments even more expensive, but this is for professionals.
Moderation is strict, sometimes even very tough. Articles are checked manually and very meticulously.
You had the opportunity to learn about article exchanges, which are the most popular among copywriters. But the list is not limited to this. If you know of other article exchanges for copywriters, please share with us.
With the general availability of the Internet, making money from content has also become available. Let's consider the most proven and popular copywriting exchanges, the best for making money on the Internet among performers and customers.
Content exchanges are sites where authors sell their articles and purchase them by customers. As a rule, a content exchange refers to sites where the purchase and sale of articles takes place. But in addition to this, there are trading platforms specializing in other materials. For example, there are sites selling copyright photographs, drawings and logos. But they are present in smaller numbers than those specializing in articles.
The sites register both customers who buy their articles from freelancers or order what they need, and authors who do all this.
Writers come to such sites in search of additional income on the stock exchange via the Internet. In order to start making money from texts, you need to start taking orders in the general feed, where tasks from customers fall. The user also has the right to upload his work to the article store.
Many sites do not charge admission fees for orders. Such sites are called open. There are also closed and semi-closed. They take some fee from freelancers so that he can take tasks from the general feed.
In addition, all authors undergo text tests for professional suitability. Typically this is a literacy test. But some exchanges also offer to write an essay for a new user. The higher the test result, the more likely it is that the customer will choose a contractor for his order.
For each order completed or article sold, the user receives a rating. The more successfully completed tasks a contractor has, the higher his rating and reputation among customers. Customers also have the right to leave feedback on the work performed, this can significantly increase or decrease the author’s reputation.

Customers also do not miss making money on finished articles. But to do this, they buy articles from newcomers at a low price and refine them. They check for errors, structure and insert keywords. After which they put it up in the article store at a higher price.
Many sites do not prevent this type of earnings, but some allow you to sell articles only of your own authorship.
- Copywriting
This type of work implies that the article written by the author will be entirely his own. Authors who perform this type of work, as a rule, completely study information on the topic, or write about what they are well versed in. The uniqueness of a copywriter’s work varies from 95% to 100%.
- Rewriting
This type of work is much easier than copywriting, since the author is asked to write an article based on what has already been written previously. The uniqueness of the rewriter’s work is up to 95%.
- Translation
Everything is simple here. It is necessary to translate the text given by the customer into the required language.
- SEO copywriting
The same copywriting, with the exception that the article will be “tailored” to certain key phrases. The performer must insert them into the article so that they look natural.
So, the top 2016 includes:
