Making Money with Online Writing
This is actually possible. I can make a living writing in a way that I love to write. I don’t have to write about subjects that hold no interest for me. I don’t have to scramble my brain trying to fill in blanks for some unknown site. It is possible to write what I love and get paid.
That being said, I’m not getting rich. There are people on the internet that are making thousands of dollars a day with their blogs, but I haven’t broken into that segment. As a matter of fact, I haven’t even figured out how to make dollar one on my blog.
How am I making money writing what I love? I’m glad you asked. I have been persistent. I started by working for sites that paid me only pennies to do posts on different forums. The posts I made were relevant and well written (spell checked and grammar checked).
From there, some of the forum hosts have asked me to write for their blogs. From there, I began to visit sites that have blog jobs posted (problogger.net is one that doesn’t charge you). Always I made sure that what I produced was the best it could be – spell check and grammar check once more.
Now the people that I have worked for are sending me to other potential employers with glowing references. My opportunities are expanding each week, and I am in a position where I can say no because of the money or because of the subject. It’s a great feeling to be writing – and getting paid.
