Become a Web writer: how to get started

Read my ebook, Writing For The Web for more info

I get at least a couple of questions each week about writing for the Web, all with the same theme “how do I get started?”

It’s simple. Sell your writing skills online.

Yes, it really is as simple as that.

Dozens of my writing students have developed Web writing careers, with part-timers earning a thousand dollars a month, and full-timers earning a lot more than that. Once student earns $2,500 per Web sales page she writes.

However, if you’re a beginner, it’s best to start simply, by writing articles.

Sell your skills

You can sell your skills at out-sourcing sites, or at countless forums. Once of the most popular is Digital Point.

BTW, I’ve started a new Web writing blog, Fab Web Writer, to help you to dig for nuggets in the Web writing gold rush. Enjoy.
