#Iwriter not accepting new writers trial
However, reaching elite status on your own is not the impossible trial it seems.
#Iwriter not accepting new writers free
I’m hoping they see the error of their ways and drop the program in favor of a free service or at least pay the writers for the content if they plan to use it. I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment of iWriter’s fast track program. Here’s a screenshot of the email, with my comments in red (click to enlarge): Actually, the iWriter email wasn’t so bad, it was the stomach-turning SCAM it led to. Normally I’d just shrug this off as a bad site and move on, but iWriter lined themselves up in my sights with an appalling email. I checked the site just before writing this and the only job available to beginning English writers was a 500 word piece on Indian Real Estate that paid a whopping $2.63 and came from a client with a 53% rejection rate track record. Beginners make about half a cent per word, which is ridiculously low so low that I’d immediately dismiss it as a possibility for my fledgling writers. iWriter was pretty low on my totem pole for review, as the site is extremely sparse on jobs and much like the scam seemed to perpetuate, drew newbies in with the promise of high pay that wouldn’t manifest until several months of pittance-pay grunt work had been plowed through.Įssentially, the idea is that you start off as a beginner at, and you aren’t able to move up to the higher ranks (premium and elite, respectively) until you’ve cleared at least 30 jobs. My readers know that I will typically walk through every aspect of a writing site, detailing procedures like applying to write for pay online, the experience one can expect once approved, and even pay frequency – iWriter breaks the mold because I don’t feel they deserve that treatment. FYI, the check I got in the mail for the returned money came from Egypt.” I got my money back, but only after going through 8 weeks of annoyances and yelling matches. After a month, I started raising hell about it being a scam. I signed up when I first joined TB (Textbroker).
Update, 3/9/15: A fellow writer on one of my worksites had this to say when asked “Is the iWriter Fast Track Program a Scam?” Freelance Writer Guide Asks: Is iWriter legit or is iWriter a scam?
