Freelance Writing

There are many ways to earn a living as a freelancer, some are more lucrative than others, but which ever talent you have, chances are you could be a freelancer!

Here we will look at what it takes to be a freelance writer and what sort of writing you could do to earn money.

Copywriting – Copywriting is the term used for businesses hiring someone to write about their services, products and the like. Copywriting can come with very high pay but some of the auction sites for freelancers are driving the price down for some. You may be asked to write articles, reviews, brochures, websites and much more.

Ghostwriting – Ghost writing is when you write something that someone else puts their name to. You may be asked to write an e-book or a print book. Fees associated with this can be extremely high depending on the type of book you write and who you write it for.

Public relations – Businesses may hire a freelance writer to pen their press releases, speeches, letters and so forth.

There are many ways to write for a living and if you have the skills, it isn’t difficult to break into.

The Internet is huge and if you consider the amount of websites that need content, this far outweighs the amount of freelancers!
