Well its a curious thing when sometimes something you aren’t looking for suddenly starts working! After months of getting increasingly frustrated with the whole online marketing game an opportunity appeared from left field!
I am on record for saying that content isn’t king
but oddly enough I now have people wanting to pay me for it! Its all Mark Knowles’s fault, he employed me to post regularly on a couple of blogs about luxury destinations and Australasian Property Investment
On the back of finally getting a positive balance in my paypal account I looked again at freelance writing opportunities. I’d initially thought about making money as a writer online but figured out that in Australia I could make more money cleaning than I could by writing for 1c/word which seemed to be the going rate on the well-known freelance writing sites.
I kept looking though and found some other options. I’ve now sold a couple of articles at Constant Content and today had an article accepted at a travel site: so if anyone wants to hire me as a writer please drop me a line!
Lissie, I like your new look. It’s very cool to hear that you’re making money doing freelance writing. I enjoy your writing so I’m sure others do, too.
While I won’t be writing for others, most likely, I do plan on providing my own content to sites that I currently publish and maybe more. I’ve also hired a writer for a new outdoor lighting site I’ve got up because I know I don’t have the time and she does an excellent job.
Way to go!
Cheryl
It’s so neat being paid for stringing together words. I love it!
