WriterAccess is a content writing marketplace owned by Rock Content, and it’s been connecting businesses with writers since 2010. It’s more structured than a general freelance platform because writers go through a vetting process and get assigned a star rating from 2 to 6 stars based on their writing samples and experience. That star rating directly determines what pay rate you unlock and which projects you can access. The platform is primarily geared toward native English speakers in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and South Africa. Once you’re in and rated, clients come to the dashboard, you claim orders, write, and get paid twice a month like clockwork.
