An Article On T-Nation Costs USD 400
« on: October 05, 2014, 11:36:25 PM »
Each author gets about USD 400 for an article on T-Nation. They post 20 articles a month. So, 400 x 20 = USD 8 000 a month for articles.

Snake oil pays well.

The only person who might be getting that much is Romano.  Other than that, most of them are getting about 50-100 bucks an article with ....still a great amount though.

That sounds more like bodybuilding.com since they do over $100M a year in revenues.  Looking at T-Nation, I'd say the whole company after expenses clears $8k a month.

There are some good articles on T-Nation but most are just crap pimping Bio-Test supplements.

I know for a fact that Rippetoe, Thibadeau and Alan Aragon get paid about USD 400 - 600 for an article.

That's a $400 credit at the Biotest store! Total out-of-pocket expense to T-Nation? $2.46

I have a few friends that writes for T-Nation. One just now told me they started at $350 back in 08' and some of the more popular writers were getting up to $1200. One is a poster on here but If I told you I'd have to kill you....before he kills me.

No you don't you idiot.

I know for a "fact" that CT is on a salary and not a per article deal.

A shitty salary at that. 

For better reference, and fact, Weider (ex US) pays M&F / Flex columnists between £200-£1000 per month.

Sounds like a terrific opportunity.

We have some very talented writers in Queensland, including some up and coming youngsters.

OMG I remember this guy from years ago.  He acted like he was the second coming of Coleman with Stephen Hawking's brain.

Fuck, does this mean not everyone on Getbig is jacked, ripped and uber successful?!

Again you are wrong.

Tim Patterson owns the whole thing and TC is his gopher.
