Your Web Site – the Hub of Your Freelance Writing Career

Got a Web site? It’s amazing that many freelance writers don’t – get ahead of the pack, and discover how to make your site the hub of your freelance writing career.

If you’re not sure whether you need a Web site, here are five benefits to consider now:

1. You Establish Yourself As a Writer and Gain Credibility

Anyone can call himself a writer. Your Web site establishes that you can indeed write. Keep adding material to your Web site as the range of the writing and other services you provide increases. This gives you credibility.

If a buyer is considering two writers for a writing job, the writer with the most comprehensive Web site gets the job.

2. Your Site Promotes You Globally 24 X 7 X 365

These days, you can write for anyone, anywhere. Since the Web is global, it doesn’t matter where your clients come from. Anyone who uses a Web search engine can find you. If your site indicates that you’re a good match for what they need, they’ll hire you.

3. Saves Time – You Clients Can Brief You, and You Can Answer Most of Their Questions Without Wasting Time on the Phone or Via Email

In my early years as a writer, I spent a lot of time advertising, and on the phone. The ads cost big money, and explaining to prospective clients how I could help them took time – time which I could more profitably have spent writing.

Nowadays, I rarely speak to prospects. They fill in a Web form to brief me (describe their project), and most of your contact is via email or IM.

4. You Can Get Passive Income – Just Add Income Streams

The larger your Web site, the larger your online real estate. You can profit from your site’s pages by selling advertising, or by selling affiliate products.

Once your site is established, and your site’s pages are indexed by the search engines, you’ll be approached by advertisers who want to put their ads on your pages. Your site can earn you thousands of dollars each year without you doing anything at all.

5. Save Money – No Need for Brochures or Printed Writing Samples

Ten years ago I was a print shop and post office regular. I posted thick packages of material to editors and prospective clients. This added up to a lot of money, but it was the cost of doing business at the time.

I can’t remember the last time I visited the print shop. These days, prospects read my writing samples on my Web site, or as email attachments in PDF.

Your Web site is your freelance writing hub – the heart of your career. Start your site today, and experience the benefits for yourself.

Make money writing Web sites

If you can use a word processor, you can write Web sites.

Many writers shy away from creating Web sites… they imagine it’s too techy, too complex. It’s not. A small simple site can begin earning money for you very quickly. As a rule of thumb, if you’ve created a site in an area in which there are advertisers you can start earning five to ten dollars a day per site. Now $10 a day isn’t much. But what if you had ten sites all earning $10 day? That’s $100 a day, which is $36,500 a year, just from ten simple sites. What if you had 20 such sites, all earning you $10 a day – or even more – in fact, some sites will earn you $100 a day? “Super-Fast Money-Making Web Sites For Writers: Join The Web-Publishing Bonanza” shows you how.

Imagine… $1,000 A Week For Just Ten Hours

You can get paid to blog. The current rate for experienced bloggers is around $1,000 to $1500 a week for from two to five posts a day – VERY nice writing income.
