Life123.com Launches Writers Community Portal

October 27, 2009 9:00 AM EDT

BOSTON, Oct. 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Life123.com(TM), one of the fastest growing "How To" websites on the Internet, has launched its Writers Community - a portal that allows talented writers to publish quality, informative content on Life123.com and get paid for it.

Previously, the site's content, which has been read by over 12 million users this year, was created by writing professionals.

"We sincerely believe that our payment-for-traffic structure is easy to understand, and will let writers get paid fairly while building an audience," said Ben Joslin, General Manager of Life123.com. "Most writers want to share what they know through their writing, not spend time figuring out complicated revenue-share systems or index formulas on where they stand."

According to comScore, 1 in 5 internet users visit a "How To" website every month, which means that new writers can easily build their audience. The Life123.com Writers Community offers a very simple formula: drive unique users to your article, and you'll earn cash, up to $20. The reward is as simple as the interface, which early users have called "easy," "intuitive" and "smooth as silk."

"Our Writers Community takes quality writing seriously," added Joslin. "All aspiring writers will undergo Editorial review prior to publishing. We are not seeking tens of thousands of writers; we are seeking to augment our current professional freelance staff with a smaller community of writers who believe in the Internet's ability to deliver great content. We believe good writers want to be published in a community of other good writers."
