Making Money with a Freelance Writer
Listen to this article as an mp3 file
How lousy are you? Did you take the time to write your own articles?
Let me tell you there are easiest way to "write" an article. One solution is to hire someone to write them for you...
But finding the right freelance writer to produce your revenue generating articles can take a bit of time.
However, if you find one that can easily take on another regular client and the two of you work well together.... then that one difficult search will turn into a lot of profitable articles and more money into both pockets.
When you start your search, you may want to begin with a very small group of articles, just in case you happen too hook up with a writer that you are less than thrilled with.
(You want to test his/her skills first, right?)
It is important to keep in mind that there are several different types of writing and each writer might be highly skilled in one area, yet lack in another.
For example, there is creative/fiction writing, biographical writing, news writing, general informational article writing, critical writing, copy-writing, poem/verse writing, technical writing, medical writing, essay/report writing, and sports writing.
Although a writer may be highly skilled in one area, many freelance writers spread themselves out into others areas as well. So, it is critical that the writer you choose can produce the type of content that you need.
Is everything making sense so far? If not, I'm sure that with just a little more reading, all the facts will fall into place.
To find a freelance writer, you can look at various freelancing web sites that will allow you to post the specification of your project and your budget.
From there, writers will make bids on your project and provide you with writing samples so
that you can get an idea of their skill level. Make sure that you choose a writer who gives you a sample of the type of article that you are looking for.
Here's another example: if you are looking for a copywriter, do not hire someone who only sent you a sports writing sample. He or she may be an outstanding sports writer, but copywriting is about selling (a product, service, or yourself) to your web site visitors.
As a general rule, the more you are willing to pay per article, the more bids you will get from quality writers who know how to entertain and inform your web site visitors so that they keep coming back for more.
Writers know that you will eventually make a ton of money off of each article or content piece.
So although $30 or more for a 500 word article may seem like a lot, when you think about the service they are providing you and the time and effort that they put into your piece, then you will realize that it really is not a lot for that one article.
If you pay for quality, you will be amazed at how much you will eventually make off of your articles.
Of course, it's impossible to put everything about freelance writing into just one post.
But you can't deny that you've just added something new to your understanding, and that's time well spent.
You can't predict when knowing something extra about this subject will come in handy, so you should file this post where you can find it again (maybe Digg it?).
