How to Be a Freelance Writer
I started off my online marketing career as a freelance writer. Although that was more than 3 years ago, my freelance writing gigs helped me quit my full time job and launch my Internet marketing business as well. Freelance writing is definitely a good way to earn some stable money.
Although there a really good freelance writing available, in this article let me give you and idea of what you can do:
- Gost write for other people’s books and ebooks
- Write articles for website / blog owners
- Become a regular columnist for offline / online media in various topics
- Become a paid blogger using paid blogging services like Review Me
- Become an editor / proofreader and help improve someone else’s work
- Become a web copywriter and charge for every web copy written
Being an editor requires more of a critical eye and amazing grasp of grammar and writing styles. Not everyone has this specific set of skills. Since copywriting involves a lot of creative thinking, you may not be able to get opportunities easily. If you can write a proper sentence in English, most other types of writing is good for you.
Ghost writing, paid blogging and content writing are what any ordinary joe should focus on.
Ghost writing can potentially add between a few hundred to a few thousand dollars into your bank account every month, but the flip side to this is that no one will ever know who you are or appreciate the work you’ve done. A big market of ebook publishers are looking for ghost writing services.
Writing for blogs or other online media is a good idea since you usually get credit for your work. If you write for blogs, chances are you get a link back to your own site. This gets you more exposure than you can dream of, especially if the blog gets a lot of traffic. For the sake of your freelance writing career, writing on blogs is actually much better than ghostwriting.
Another way of making money from freelance writing is paid to blog. The basic idea is that you have your own blog, and look for pportunities in paid blogging networks. A lot of advertisers want to generate buzz about their products, and they have money to spend too. How much you can demand per article written depends a lot on the popularity and traffic of your blogs.
The plus side to this is that technically you own the web content you have written, which means you can always make income using your growing blog with Google Adsense or even affiliate offers.
