    Easy Writing Success - Dominate the Web 

    Make money writing on the Web, even as a complete newbie

    If you're a new writer today, the Web has smoothed your path to writing success. Not only can you make some money right away, you no longer have to spend years languishing in obscurity.

    There are major benefits in Web writing for new writers, with one major pitfall, so let's get the downside out of the way first. The pitfall is this: when you write for the Web you'll usually get no professional editing, and this can lead you into developing bad habits which are difficult to eradicate.

    So what can you write for the Web, as a bright and shining new writing star?

    Here are three venues which require no experience: writing Web content in the form of articles, blogging, and the "exposure" write-for-us sites.

    Let's look at these three venues in a little more detail.

    Write Web Content in the Form of Articles

    Web articles are short because of the short attention spans on the Web, and the difficulty of reading with any concentration online. Most are just 400 to 600 words.

    Even as a new writer, you can write these articles. Since the articles are in high demand by many thousands of Web sites, it's easy to get established.

    Blogs - Write Them for Others and Yourself

    Over the past year, blogs have gone mainstream. This provides huge opportunities for new writers, simply because established writers have far more offers of work than they can handle.

    Similarly to Web content articles, blog "posts" are short. Many are 100 words or less, others - "feature" posts, can be up to 800 words.

    Blog posts tend to be much like articles, and they're easy to write.

    Write for the "Exposure" Write-For-Us Sites

    These kinds of sites are everywhere. Although they won't do much to build your income, these sites are useful for new writers because they increase your experience of writing, as well as of the Web.

    Look on them as training wheels for your writing career.

    So we've looked at three venues which help you to get experience in writing - and some income too.

    Because you're writing, rather than thinking about writing, these venues can give your writing career some excellent results.

    Here are three results:

    1. You get confidence

    Writing as a career is all about confidence. As you work with editors and clients, you'll soon see that every writing job is different. And because they are so different you need all the confidence you can develop.

    Many writers procrastinate and miss deadlines simply because they lack the confidence just to get on with it and write. Web writing at these simple venues can help you to build your confidence.

    2. You get noticed

    Your aim as a writer should be to have clients coming to you. Trolling for writing jobs not only wastes time you should be spending writing, it can also make you a victim of various scams.

    Even as a brand new writer, think in terms of building your name. The bigger your name, the more income you will make: you can charge more for your services when there's lots of demand.

    3. You've built the foundations of a long term career

    Web writing, because it is paid writing, lets you build the foundations of your writing career for years to come. It's easy and it's fast.

    Dominate the Web, and you'll achieve writing success. There's never been a better time to be a new writer. You can parlay your skill with words into a great writing career.

    Write for Money - Five Easy and Fun Steps for New Writers 

    Yes, you can write for money... today

    If you're a new writer, congratulations. I wish I were starting my career today. You have unlimited opportunities to make as much money from your writing as you wish. These five steps will help.

    Just follow the steps - all of them. By the time you've completed all five steps, you WILL be paid for your words. There's an immense hunger online for words today; if you can write, you can make money.

    1. Write ten articles on any topic you choose (as long as it's not about yourself)

    Write ten articles. These ten articles can be on any topic you choose; basically topics for which there are magazines: fashion, mountain bikes, dieting...

    There's one topic you should avoid, and that's anything to do with yourself. Unless you've lived an amazing life, or write with humor, there's next to no way to make writing about yourself profitable.

    Here's the thing: you're aiming to write for people who will pay you, whether they're magazine editors or business people. These people all have an audience, and that audience is interested in a specific topic.

    To sell your words, you need to write about topics in which others are interested. So study magazines on a newsstand, and write ten articles.

    2. Create a small Web site

    Many of my writing students baulk at this one. Creating a Web site seems complicated. Agreed, the first time you do this, it may well be like assembling a toy for your children at Christmas - frustrating. You may want to swear a lot and kick things. Feel free to do it if it relieves your feelings.

    Nevertheless, creating a Web site is an essential skill for writers in the new millennium.

    And it's EASY. Really.

    I promise you if you take yourself to Blogger, it will take you less than three minutes to create your first site.

    So go and do that NOW.

    You're back? Great.

    3. Post your articles to your site

    Now post all your articles - yes, all ten - to your new site.

    Create a small sidebar with a "Hire Me to Write for You" notice. Ensure that there's a way for people to contact you: include your email address and your cell phone number.

    Congratulations. You're now a writer - all you have to do to make money is to keep writing.

    4. Post three articles to article directories

    Choose three of your articles, and post them to article directories online - but create a "resource box" or "bio" first.

    Your resource box is a chance for you to sell your new writing skill. It also provides a link back to your site, so people can view samples of your writing and can contact you.

    You can craft your resource box in any way you wish. It can be extremely simple, as in "John Smith writes about fashion and finance, and he's available to write for you today. Contact him at his site _____________ (the URL of your Web site.)"

    5. Approach Web sites for writing jobs

    Finally, approach sites to write for them. Which sites? That depends on the topics you're comfortable writing about. Whichever topics you've chosen, there will be thousands of sites covering those topics.

    Check the About page of likely looking sites. If they hire writers, they'll often have Editorial contact information. Sometimes they won't. Contact them, tell them who you are and what you want.

    Before you know it, you'll have several clients for whom you write. And you'll get paid to write for money. It's just as easy as I've described - have fun.

    Article Writing for the Web - Top Five Secrets to Success 

    Great tips to help you to make money writing articles

    If you're moving from print to Web writing, you'll find that there are sharp differences in styles. Since article writing for the Web is highly lucrative, it's worth learning how to do it well. These five secrets will ensure your success.

    Firstly, let's talk about WHY article writing is so lucrative online. Understanding the needs of your customers is vital, and those needs involve the search engines. The people buying your articles use them to get traffic to their sites, and ultimately to make sales.

    Unlike print articles, articles for the Web are written both for people, and for search engines, so keywords are vital.

    So let's look at your five secrets for success.

    1. Keyword-rich titles are essential

    Clever article titles using plays on words like puns are disastrous online, so while you can be clever and creative in writing titles for your articles, ensure that the words you use are those words (keywords) by which your articles will be found on the search engines.

    Although you don't need to be an expert in search engine optimization (SEO) to write articles for the Web, your article buyers will appreciate your care in writing keyword-rich titles.

    You'll often be provided with keywords to use in your articles by buyers. If you aren't given the keywords, do a little keyword research yourself.

    2. Keep sentences and paragraphs short

    In print, your sentences and paragraphs can run on for many lines. However, on the Web readers don't read: they scan. So write short sentences, and keep paragraphs short too. Use more sub-headings and bullet points than you would for a print article.

    When editing others' writing, I can always tell whether an article writer has written for the Web before. Dense, long paragraphs just aren't appropriate on the Web.

    2. Provide useful information

    There's a wide range in quality of Web articles. Some articles barely deserve the name. They can be summed up in a sentence (the title) and are 400 0r 500 words of waffle with keywords inserted like raisins in a pudding.

    Article writing is becoming much more competitive. As more and more Web sites struggle to get traffic, the quality of articles becomes vitally important.

    When you write quality articles, you'll sell more of them, and you'll be able to charge more, so aim for quality - provide useful information and your career will thrive.

    4. Have you answered your promise to the reader?

    Web articles always make a promise to the reader; either explicit, or implied. Read your articles carefully to ensure that you've kept that promise.

    5. Target your articles - who's your audience?

    Before you start writing an article, think about the reader. Who is he or she? Why is she reading your article?

    For example, let's say you're writing an article about dog training. This is a wide topic, and has many potential audiences. Your audiences may include: new puppy owners, owners of older dogs with behavioral problems, professional dog trainers, or vets.

    You'll write a completely different article for each audience.

    Therefore, if you're not sure who the target audience will be, ask the person who's buying your articles. If you try to target several audiences in one article, you'll confuse everyone.

    So there you have my five top secrets to article writing success. Take them to heart, and you'll soon be a pro.
