You know what, Celine? I was actually one of those persons who were lamenting the sorry rates in freelancing. I’m new to this and I didn’t know what I was worth, until I read your blog. So I decided to make a stand and you know what? The client actually agreed to my rates with some “persuasion.” If not for your “You know what you’re worth” advice, I would have caved in to a much lower rate. Thank you.

I don’t really do paid-to-review schemes, so I can’t give you my experience/opinion on that. I do post online job listings here at Frugal Pinoy each week. Many of the jobs I post are of the niches you mentioned.

I recommend searching for the top blogs in those niches (foreign blogs) and looking for a “Submissions” or “Write for us” page and applying through there.

I am thinking of joining paid to review schemes to increase online earnings. Do you have any sources where to find available jobs in the niche of entrepreneurship, personal finance, investments, and self-motivation?

‘think of your rates as an investment that your client will have to make to ensure success’

I like this specifically to reinforce our way of thinking as service provider or writers.

Thanks for the tip!
