Freelance Writing Jobs

Freelancing, or telecommuting, means working from your home computer to write or complete a project for a company or even just another individual person. Projects typically include things like writing articles or blog posts for websites, or pamphlets for a local business.

These writing jobs often require you to do almost no original research, since the job typically requires you to write on an introductory level, and not to delve into advanced topics.

Most writers typically earn between a half cent or two cents per word, depending on the difficulty of the project, the experience of the writer, and the timeframe for completion of the project.

This doesn't sound like enough to make a living, but keep in mind that if you can type at 50 WPM, then you can be earning as much as $60 per hour.

Freelance writing jobs are a great way to earn extra money around the holiday season, or to supplement your income during trying times. Many people take on these jobs and eventually turn them into a career because they like them so much.
