What Makes Drakan the Best Fantasy Game Series Eve

I have worked as a regional freelance journalist for the past three years, and have been a contributor to Associated Content since October of 2006. The following is a comparison of several aspects of the two journalistic forms.
Upfront Money: Hands down in favor of regional freelance journalism. While Associated Contents’ length requirements are much smaller than traditional printed press (approximately 1/3,) a 1500 word freelance article will net you $50-$250. 1500 words written for AC will, in all likelihood, will net you approximately $15 upfront cash, or $0.01 per word, compared to a traditional freelance article where you will earn $0.03-$0.16 per word.
Residual Money over Time: Hands down in favor of Associated Content. I currently have 40 articles fermenting on my CP page, all of which still get page views. My most successful Associated Content article: “Top 10 Ways Myspace Can Ruin Your Life”, has easily made as much money from performance pay as I would have made from a low paying freelance article. Further, “Top 5 Ways World of Warcraft Can Ruin Your Life” has doubled the initial surge felt by the Myspace article. In traditional freelance journalism, you are unlikely to see another penny after your initial payment.
Availability of Work: Again, hands down to Associated Content. While freelancing for a traditional print magazine pays considerably more, their need for content and writers is considerably less. The maximum amount of articles you can sell usually breaks down to 1/issue. That’s one article per month with max pay $250 for a monthly magazine, if you can beat all the other journalists to the job. With Associated Content, the sky is the limit; write as many articles as you like.
