Sell Your Writing Online NOW Blog

If you want to make money writing, you’ll have noticed that there are endless writing jobs. Unfortunately, the sad fact is that 95 per cent of the jobs pay a pittance.

(Actually, “pittance” might be praising them too highly.)

I’ve been writing for 30 years, so here’s a few words of advice.

STOP taking these “jobs.”

You can do better.

Here are three simple ways.

1. Create Packages of PLR Articles and Sell Them

“PLR” means Private Label Rights content. You can learn more about PLR here.

Many Sell Your Writing Online NOW SYWON members make their first real Web writing income by writing PLR.

PLR content, in the form of articles, ebooks and Web content lets you leverage the time you spend writing.

This is essential, because you need to get away from trading hours for dollars as soon as possible.

2. Write Articles for High-Paying Markets

Also, as soon as possible, stop writing for markets which pay you a pittance.

Of course, to write for $1 a word and more, you’ll need to lift your game.

Where do you find these markets? They’re everywhere. Most major sites pay for content. However, please understand that they don’t advertise this. Why would they? They’d be inundated with unsuitable material.

So, you’ll need to content the editors at these sites.

3. Develop an In-Demand Specialty

Markets which pay well want experts, rather than “writers.” However, they don’t want REAL experts. (Real experts in an area generally can’t write.) they want writers who know an area very well — who’ve researched and have written about a specific area.

The more you write, the more you earn.

I posted this to my writing blog, and I’m sure you’ll find the tips useful. Angela Booth’s Writing Blog: Top Ten Tips to Help You to Write Fast:

“Do you want to write fast and well? The ability to convey your ideas quickly and easily will help you in everything you want to do, so it’s a skill that’s well worth developing.

Writing speed develops with practice, however there are tricks which will help you.

Here are ten of my favorite tricks, developed over 30 years of writing.

1. Write First, Research Later

When you’re starting a new project, it’s tempting to spend time researching. However, you won’t know what facts you need, until you’re in the middle of writing, and often not until you’ve completed an initial draft.

Therefore, write your first draft without giving any thought to what you don’t know.

I use free writing to get down a first draft as quickly as I can. If I need to research something, I’ll put a note right in the draft, in brackets, or I’ll type ‘XXX’.

Writing a draft before researching helps to eliminate procrastination.”

Here’s a tip I left out: Only writing is writing. Thinking about writing isn’t writing. Nor is reading your email, responding to clients, or surfing the web. COUNT the words you write everyday. Just keeping a word count makes a difference.
