Earn from posts you refer or write.
Two ways in, and they pay differently because they are different work. Both are paid on publication rather than on a pitch — so a pitch we decline costs you nothing, and the ones that go live are worth having your name near.

A fee by length rather than a percentage of what the client paid — a percentage would reward chasing expensive tiers rather than writing well. Standard posts are not on this list because the client supplies that draft themselves.
We set these against the market rate rather than against what was left over. Five cents a word buys a beginner, and a beginner's draft costs us the saving back in editing — while quietly contradicting the page where we claim to edit properly.
What we will not pay for. Clicks, signups, traffic or sheer volume of pitches. Only a completed placement. Anything looser turns this into an affiliate scheme, and an affiliate scheme attached to link placements is how a legitimate sponsored-content business starts looking like a link network — which would cost us the thing that makes any of it worth buying.

We read every application. The code does not work until we have, because a referral from someone we would not publish is worth nothing to either of us.
