Sell Your Writing Online NOW Blog

Want to make real money from your writing? You can, if you know how. Thousands of other writers are already doing it, so if you love writing, you can do it too.

Words are big business on the Web, and if you can write, you can write your own paycheck, once you know how it all works.

Over the past 12 months, several companies have poured hundreds of millions of dollars into developing Web content. One company is even rumored to be in the process of creating an IPO (Initial Public Offering.)

This last is amazing to me: a company which focuses solely and completely on WEB CONTENT is issuing an IPO? This means that Web content has arrived in the money markets, and it’s not hard to see why… there’s big profit in it.

You can take advantage, and can profit too, if you get Web writing training.

Let’s look at what Web writing training can do for you.

1. You Can Make Money Writing About Your Passions

I’m passionate about many things: the Web, and writing, just to name two.

Being able to make writing writing about my passions is sheer heaven for me.

In a sense, I’ve always made money writing about my passions… in the 1980s, when my sons were tiny, I made money writing for parenting magazines. In the mid-1990s, and up to the present, I’ve made money writing for computer magazines.

However, writing for the Web makes mining your passions to create an income much easier. These days if I become passionate about something, I’m much more likely to create a blog or a Web site on the topic, and monetize it, than I am to write magazine articles about it.

2. You Can Make Money Writing About What You Learn

What are you learning in your daily life? The constant changes all around us ensure that we’re all learning. All you need to do is notice what you’re learning, and you can make money from it.

Here’s a big tip: if you’re starting out in an area, you’re in a prime position to make money from it. You’re writing at a level that more people understand, because there are always many more beginners in an area than there are experts. Once you reach expert status yourself, it’s difficult to write for beginners for various reasons, the main one being that it’s hard to get back into a beginner’s mindset.

3. You Can Make Money As a Totally New Writer

Yes, you can make money when you’re just starting out. You can earn as you learn.

This gives you amazing opportunities. You no longer need to practice the writing craft for years on end until you’re a highly professional writer — you can make money as a beginner.

4. Are You Already a Professional Writer? Web Writing Training Lets You Turn Writing Into a Million-Dollar Business

On the other hand, if you’re already a professional writer, training in Web writing lets you spread your wings. You’ll begin to understand the truly unlimited opportunities the Web offers you. You’re ready to aim not just for a great income, but a superb one.

I was speaking with a Sell Your Writing Online NOW (SYWON) graduate student a few days ago who told me he’s creating a new blog, and that he’s confident that he’ll be able to sell it for a million dollars within 12 months.

Will he do it? I’m sure that he will. He’s created similar sites, and sold them. He knows what he’s doing, and if he doesn’t hit his million-dollar payday, he’s going to come very close.

I know that many writers are frustrated by the Web. They get stuck in low-paying writing ghettos, and know that they can climb out, but don’t see how. If you’re in this position, you’re on the first rung of a ladder. When you get the weekly Web writing training you need, you’ll climb that ladder. The higher you climb, the better the view.
