Which top 10 writing sites are the most profitable for writing, backlinking, and earning money?

This is a good question. I don't really have an answer to your question. I didn't think sites were banning HubPages.

However, I think that if you are looking to earn a good deal of money then you must select a good topic that is a) trending and b) people want to know about.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
