Where To Find Freelance Writing Jobs
Published on September 20, 2012
Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.
More and more traditional publications like newspapers are either cutting back or closing distribution to turn their focus online.
There are really tons of job options online for freelance writing in the way of article content, eBook creation, blogging and even ghost writing. There are actually more opportunities for writers today than ever before.
How many freelance writers out there would be selling their skills if they understood the opportunity we learn about and apply here at WA. Even within the confines of our community there used to be a jobs section where writers would offer their services at a fixed cost.
I often wondered why someone here at WA that has all the training available to understand how much money can be made by someone that is truly a skilled writer. I guess the trade off is making money on ones content as soon as it is completed versus publishing it yourself and the possibility of it earning 100's of times over through affiliate links or even Adsense ads.
Much of the content I publish on my sites these days is contracted through writers on elance and I work with freelance writers that obviously have a really good grasp of how to properly SEO and write engaging content that is perfect for Affiliate Marketers.
These folks could be making so much more money using the content they write for themselves if they had the benefit of the training and resources here at Wealthy Affiliate.
Getting back to the question that started this post, where to find freelance writing jobs, there are tons of sites you can sell your skills.
The question I guess I would ask in return would be....
Why sell the one thing that can make the biggest difference in your ability to make money online for pennies on the dollar.
I am sure there are plenty out there that probably make some extra money through freelance writing jobs online and I am curious to get your opinions on how you justify it versus using that content for yourself.
