Fast writing equals fast profits, whether you write to promote your site through writing articles or simply earn cash writing articles

Writing articles for websites tends to bring in varying amounts of money.  We've all come across the people who pay a dollar for a five hundred word article - now this might be an acceptable way to start if you have no portfolio of work behind you, and you want to get some experience, but if you follow the advice contained in this lens you won't be writing for a dollar for long!

You can also write articles for different reasons:

$$$  purely to earn money

$$$  to promote your affiliate products

$$$  to drive traffic to your websites

Whatever your reasons are for wanting to write articles, the one thing you need to aim for is SPEED.

This lens is going to tell you how to write faster without compromising on quality.

It will also reveal:

$$$  where to find paid work

$$$  where to post your articles for free to promote your website and increase your traffic

$$$  how to get more sign ups for your affiliate programs with the help of writing short articles in double quick time

Okay, no more time to spare.  Let's get going and see exactly what becoming a faster article writer can do for you and your business.

Making good use of article directories 

If your website needs traffic, then writing and submitting articles to online article directories is one of the best ways to get that traffic for free.
Here are some of the directories I have found to be very useful; I will be adding more over time.
Ezine Articles
By far the best one on the net today. If you only submit your articles to one article directory, make sure it's this one.
If you have ever looked up information on anything online, you will probably have noticed some results featuring articles from this directory. Don't underestimate the power it can have to send you traffic to your website - a well written article can literally provide you with traffic in just a few hours or less.
Search Warp
Capable of sending you thousands of visitors from just one well written article over time, Search Warp is an excellent addition to our list of directories.
Easy to use and providing great stats for you to look at, you'll be able to see at a glance which articles are performing the best, allowing you to alter your approach accordingly.

Time To Be Modest. Grab Some Ghostwriting Jobs Now 

Ever tried your hand at being a ghost for someone else? I don't mean trying some kind of unearthly activity here - what I'm referring to is an activity in which you can be published over and over again and be paid for every time, without your name appearing anywhere as a result.

There is a huge demand for ghostwriters online, and you might actually be surprised at the amount of work that is available. You can be ghostwriting an e-book one day, a huge batch of articles the next, and finishing the week with some press releases and short reports too.

Being a ghostwriter means staying in the background and watching someone else take all the credit for something you have written. Some writers like to be recognised all the time for their work, and if you are one of those you might not be cut out for a career as a ghostwriter.

But if it is a steady stream of work you want, and you don't have any preference for seeing your name in print or on various websites, then you should start looking for ghostwriting jobs right now. Having your own website to point potential clients towards can be a big help, but there is no reason why you cannot grab plenty of ghostwriting gigs for yourself by bidding for work on the various online writing job sites which are available. Once you have some experience and completed jobs under your belt, you can start building a website that you can point people to.

But how much money can you make as a ghostwriter? Is it equal to a nice part time income, or is there enough cash out there to make a well paid full time ghostwriting job a nice reality?

Let me speak from experience here. I am a full time ghostwriter and copywriter now, and I earn far more than I used to in my old job. I can certainly testify to the fact that there are plenty of online ghostwriting gigs out there which can pull in valuable work for you - you just have to start looking, start bidding on jobs and keep going until you build up regular streams of reliable work.

So if you think ghostwriting for other clients' sounds like your cup of tea, perhaps it's time you got started.

Grab some work from Get a Freelancer 

... and start earning some money right now!

This site is a hive of opportunities for people wanting to build up a portfolio of work, build their speed and earn some cash.


Don't worry too much about what you'll be paid to begin with - concentrate on getting some experience and getting those first few jobs under your belt.


Once you've done that you can begin to put in higher bids. And contrary to what you might believe, a lot of people don't go for the cheapest bids! There is plenty to get you started, but you won't price yourself out of the market when you get more experienced either.

Writing guides to help you increase your writing speed

Another source of writing jobs that may just bring in a bit more than a dollar each... 

Click through the link below to discover another source of work you will want to look at. Remember, it's a good idea initially to limit the amount of work you take on, at least until you become familiar with just how many articles you can write in a specific time period.
Then after a while you'll find yourself agreeing to write something really bizarre - like eighty five articles on conservatories in two weeks, as I did recently. That job alone brought in several hundred dollars, so believe me when I say it's possible. You just need to get yourself out there and KEEP GOING. You are the only person who stands between you and the success you want.<
