Yes, Constant Content.
If you have never heard of this site, you might want to check it out. CC lets you post articles and pretty much anything you can write at prices set by you but what really separates them from the rest of the crowd is the rights.
You can give over full rights or partial rights for different dollar amounts. If you will let someone use your material but not claim it as their own, that's partial rights. This is great because you can sell the same article multiple times. Full rights means they can claim it and slap their name on it. Naturally, full rights are usually more expensive.
The dilemma many people face with CC is the very strict approval system. Be prepared to have your articles commented on and sent back to you. This could happen once, twice, or not at all.
If you get frustrated easily and don't like criticism, this site WILL piss you off. Once you get the hang of it though, it's good money!

Also, the editors are so picky, it is maddeningly frustrating. I know they want quality articles but some of the reasons for rejecting articles are tenuous at best. They lose a lot of good authors that way. Some I know now work direct with publishers to avoid the annoying editors altogether. Constant Content lose money because of this. I also buy in web content for my sites, as I do not have time to write it personally. Frankly I do not care if all the commas are perfectly positioned and neither do my readers. We want quality, readable articles not perfect punctuation. Constant Content sweat the small stuff too much, whilst some of their best authors circumvent their petty editors.
