You have to answer a ton of questions to make money...but it may not take long and it could be fun. Who knows. What to write about? Well, do you have a blog? You could write about homeschooling. Maybe do some product reviews. That would give you some writing practice and a place to show your ability.
See, there is the issue. I'm not an expert at homeschooling (yet.) My son is 3, i cant homeschool him yet and have never homeschooled anyone before. So i couldnt do a product review.
You can review preschool material. Why couldn't you? You would know what works for you. You don't need to be an expert to write a blog. You can write from the perspective of a first time homeschooler. You can chronicle your journey. You can list resources you have found. After a while you can use your blog to get sponsorships and free items. Now, this will take time...but if you want to write you need to write. I have written for free more times than I care to admit...lol. I still feel like I write for free. lol. I am building up my skills so move on and write for more money..takes time. But if you are interested in starting a blog to house your writing on being a mom and making the decision to homeschool, I think that would be great. I know several online groups you can join.
I took the chacha test and got 100% lol. So now i have to do a lot of training stuff to do. This seems fun! I like doing searches so it'll be something fun to do to make a few pennies lol. When im not doing that though, I registered at Helium and have a blog started. I also am looking through all the stuff on ratrace.com This is exciting!
Yippy! 100%. I hope you have fun on ChaCha. I have considered working for them many times but never did. You can visit Mom Bloggers Club and http://www.weteachgroup.com/ That will get you kinda involved in seeing what other bloggers do and give you a place to ask questions and such. I'm on both of those places. I'm the moderator for the homeschool group on the We Teach site.
I got into ChaCha, too (long time ago... quit after about a week), but I didn't like the inability to avoid certain types of questions. That may have changed since then. Some people make big money on it, though.
I probably wont be able to do ChaCha. I did the readiness test but my computer messed up on 3 of the 10 questions so it just looked like i took a really long time answering the questions. They aren't going to let me be a guide with that bad score. Bummer!
Just wanted to give you a quick update and let you know that i started as a guide on ChaCha today and did it for like 3 hours from my kitchen table. I made about 3 or 4 bucks, lol. Not much but a few hours here and there will be a nice little bit of extra money and it's super easy.
