How to Make money from Article Writing

There are many ways to make money online. Many you can learn all about from websites and articles online, but there are some, the very best, which aren’t covered. Article writing falls into this. There are many people who make a fantastic living off article writing. Take me for example. I provide article writing services and such like, and make a perfectly comfortable living off it. I don’t need any other jobs to live the life I want to live. I also have an incredible passion for article writing and this makes my job even more worthwhile and enjoyable.

Many platforms allow you to start out article writing, some where you publish articles, others where you can submit proposals for people looking for something specific writing, whether that be for a website or a magazine or something. One of these very portals, where I started article writing, is squidoo.com. On this platform, you set up an account, and create a lens, which is essentially a page on which you place your article writing on. You can then choose if you want to put extra widgets and things on, including ad sense advertisings and affiliate links to Amazon and eBay, which sell products linked to your article.

The most important thing to remember when doing this is to have an interesting and creative style of article writing, yet also make sure your article writing is informative and flows well. For example, if you are writing a music review or instructions on how to take a photo, they both require a different style of article writing, so make sure that they suit the style you choose to use. To publicise your article, post a link on facebook or twitter, and be active on some forums which link to your niche, and publicise that way. Another really good way to get public notice for your article, is a free service called amplify, or you could even use Google Ad Words to get hits to your article.

If you would prefer to work on a more couture and bespoke environment, the best place for freelance writers to get work is eLance.com. This provides a service which connects clients and writers together and because of the volume of people using this site, there is always somebody for you. There is a great workroom interface and it is a really powerful tool to make money in article writing.
