Be a Freelance Blogger

Are you surprised we found 121 websites, blogs and online magazines that want your food and drinks articles?

Honestly, we knew this list wouldn’t be short — but we didn’t expect to find over 100 sites either. Nice!

So what will you find on this list exactly?

Websites and online magazines that specialize in food or drink topics? Yes, absolutely. And websites that say yes to articles on those topics regularly, even if food and drink are not the main theme of the site. (Everybody eats and drinks. We’re pretty sure you could pitch almost any site a food or drink topic and get a yes, if you know their audience well enough to target your pitch to their interests.)

And every one of these sites is known to pay freelance writers at least $50 per article. Most of them pay a lot more — some as much as $3,000!

Entertainment blogs… you mean celebrity gossip and all those clickbait-y articles I see on social media, right?

Hey, we’re not gonna lie. Those articles fall under the category of entertainment. But you’ll be surprised by the variety of styles and topics in this niche.

For research, you get to read even more online articles about those topics and keep up with your entertainment obsessions!

(Bonus points if you focus on reading publications that pay well. Like the ones in this list right here, with rates from $50 right up to $4,000+ per article.)

Can you think of a writing topic that weighs on people’s minds more than health?

It touches every aspect of our lives, every day… and that means you can find a way to pitch a health or wellness article to nearly ANY publication.

Lemme give you an example. When I say “freelance writing jobs at health and wellness blogs,” what comes to your mind?

Technical medical articles about new discoveries? How to get back into those slim-fit jeans? A story about a terrifying diagnosis and obstacle-ridden journey to recovery? How to juggle the challenges of aging parents? How to live with a pesky food sensitivity (and still eat your favorite foods)? And I’m just getting started…

If you’re a personal finance blogger and you want to break into health writing, you can pitch your editors ideas about how finances and health affect each other. If you’re a business blogger with an interest in wellness, you can blog about the return on investment in corporate wellbeing initiatives. Health and wellness are such universal topics, you can work them into your portfolio even if you’ve never written for a specifically health-centered blog.

Even better news: all of the sites listed in this post are open to pitches on health and wellness from freelance writers! And they pay rates ranging from $50 to hundreds (in some cases thousands) of dollars per article, so you can earn a good living from your work.
