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. I highly recommend everyone who can write, or want to write, to get a few writing gigs as a legitimate and sustainable way to improve your cash flow.

Although there a really good freelance writing tips available, in this article let me give you and idea of what you can do:

 

 

1. Gost write for other people’s books and ebooks

 

 

2. Write web content for website / blog owners

 

 

3. Become a regular conributor for offline / online media in various topics

 

 

4. Become a paid blogger using get paid to blog like PayPerPost

 

 

5. Become an editor / proofreader and help edit someone else’s work

 

 

6. 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. Copywriting is another highly paid skill that requires creative thinking and therefore it not really in the reach of most people. 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 lot of content publishers and ebook sellers are on the lookout for ghost writers or ghost writing services.

Getting credited (and perhaps a link back to your site) is a great reason to be writing for blogs and other similar online media. If you write for blogs, chances are you get a link back to your own site. By doing so you expose yourself and your name, while building credibility and repertoire. It’s much better for your career if you write on blogs or anywhere else where your name is published.

The final type of freelance writing you can do is sponsored blogging. Basically, you setup a blog and start writing from “paid blogging” opportunities. Advertisers want to create buzz about their products, and they will pay you to participate in doing it. The popularity of your blog determines how much you earn per post.

The good thing about this is that technically you own the blog articles you have written, which means you can always earn money from your growing blog with Google Adsense or even affiliate offers.
