Make Money Writing : Top Ten Writing Tips for 2010
Posted on: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 13:39:00 +0000
The Web is built on words. For savvy writers, that means opportunities. Leading copywriter and writing teacher Angela Booth has just created her top ten tips to help writers to make money in 2010: http://www.freelancewritingezine.com/2010tips.html
Angela writes several popular blogs, and offers a free weekly writing tips ezine for professional writers. She believes that there's never been a better time to develop a high-powered freelance writing career. She says: "Oddly enough, the economic downturn has been good for writers. As businesses strive to cut costs, they move their marketing online, and they also ramp up their ecommerce efforts. This means there are many more opportunities for writers, particularly in writing Web content, and in blogging."
Unfortunately, she says, many writers both new and established, find the Web intimidating. She receives questions every day from writers asking her how to find writing jobs online which pay well, and how to make money online.
She says she created her Top Ten Writing Tips for 2010: http://www.freelancewritingezine.com/2010tips.html to help writers to plan now for their best-ever year. She encourages writers to be both productive, and professional, because they'll be amply rewarded.
In 2010, she encourages writers to set production goals, as well as marketing goals, and to ensure that they have a Terms of Service Agreement which they send to prospective clients. She reports that few writers understand that it's necessary to set their own terms of service, as well as their rates, and that clients appreciate transparency.
She says that writers always want to know what they should be charging, but in a free market, it's up to writers to set their own rates.
"There are no standard rates," she reports. "New writers often get upset at what they perceive as low rates, but they are not experienced enough to realize that the best writing jobs with great rates are never advertised. They go to known writers who have contacts, and who market. Becoming a known writer isn't difficult. Writers who make getting known a top priority in 2010 will succeed far beyond their expectations."
