The other day someone who reads one of my other blogs wrote to ask me if eHow is hiring at the moment.   So, to answer anyone who has the same question:

The beauty of it is, eHow is ALWAYS hiring.  At least that’s how it is right now, and they don’t hint at any changes in the near future.   It’s very easy to start writing for eHow.  All you have to do is register at the site, and sign up for the Writers Compensation Program (WCP).  The only requirements for signing up for the WCP is 1) have a PayPal account and 2) be a citizen of the United States.  People in other countries may write for eHow, but at the moment eHow only pays American writers.

There is no official screening, interviewing, or hiring process at eHow.  All you do is regsiter and start writing.   While eHow doesn’t screen writers before they start writing, they do have a review system in place.  Some writers have been banned from the site for violating the rules regarding what kind of content a writer can publish on eHow.

Basically, if you can write and abide by some basic rules, you can make money online by writing for eHow.
