What do remote Writer jobs pay?

Across the 118 live remote writer postings that disclose a salary, the median is $80k and the middle half of roles falls between $65k and $95k. These are advertised ranges from real job postings, updated nightly — not an annual survey.

Mid-level roles median at $75k, Senior roles median at $81k. The jump between mid and senior is usually the largest single step, which is why "senior writer" is the highest-paid remote query band.

They cover only postings that publish a range — typically US-anchored employers, since several US states now mandate pay transparency. Roles from markets without disclosure norms are excluded, so treat this as the disclosed-pay market, not the global average.
