When it comes to writing book reviews and getting paid for it, Online Book Club owned by Scott Hughes is the biggest platform that I offers this. I would be writing a series on how you can make the most out of this site and this is the first part. I would just touch the basics here, and get more in depth as I update everyday.
So basically, Online Book Club is the first site that paid me money for doing anything online and I am still having those goosebumps till today almost two years after.
It is pretty simple to become a book reviewer on the site. You just first of all need to register as part of the site on onlinebiokclub.org. After that, you navigate to the review team page and register as a book reviewer. Make sure you confirm that you have never written a book when prompted or else you won't be allowed into the review team.
After you have joined the review team, you have to go and set your preferences before you are offered any book. Basically, you set the format that books are available for you so they know which books to send to you. Done with that? The Select Tab on the Review Team Page takes you to where you can pick books to read and review.
Note that as a newbie, you would only get free books for your first review. After the first review, and your review is accepted by the editors, you would be eligible to pick paid books.
It typically takes 21 days maximum from the day your review is published for the site to send your payment to the registered PayPal account. It comes much earlier most times though. It is a wonderful platform that I believe is completely worth it. I would be sharing experiences on writing an acceptable review that would get a user of Online Book Club paid in the next section of this series.
