Need to proofread comment minutely

Finally, if you really want to write something serious, write for money. Believe me, once you begin to get paid for your work , your writing can improve manifolds simply because you’re not going to get paid if you don’t write good.
*************************************
Good is an adjective. Well is an adverb. A manifold is a part of an engine. Please proofread your work well.
The portion above the **** line was picked from this link (I’ve corrected the language after receiving the comment).
Good is an adjective. Well is an adverb. I know this and I don’t know how I mixed them up while writing the article. I’m thankful to the anonymous person for pointing this out. He/she did not leave an email otherwise I’d have sent a personal thank you note. Reminds me: the older content should be routinely checked for proofreading (grammar, spelling, punctuation, etc.) errors. This is more so important for a copywriter because people expect — justifiably — you to be adept in the language you use to communicate.
