Freelance Writing with ConstantContent
Constant Content is what I would call a content broker. They don’t buy content directly, but offer a marketplace where writers and buyers come together. Writers put their work up on consignment, so to speak, and if/when a customer purchases it, the author gets paid and CC keeps a cut. The author […]
