When internet marketers are trained properly, they are told to outsource what they don't enjoy, or have trouble mastering. For many, seo content writing falls into this category - great news if writing is what you CAN do!
Nowhere is this more important that with SEO content writing: article writing, e-book writing, blog writing and social media posts.
You see, writing is not everyone's specialty, and even if it is, many internet marketers find it a time-consuming part of their campaigns. While they understand that SEO content writing is vital for traffic and link generation, they often prefer more stimulating stuff - product creation, filming videos, recording interviews and the like.
For them therefore, getting someone else to do their article writing - and all other types of writing - makes good business sense. As with any other industry internet marketers are more productive when they are doing things they enjoy.
The Work Is There - Go Get It!
If, like me, writing is your thing, then this industry is providing a 'business on a platter' for you. There is so much work available for writers who have learned how to create SEO (search engine optimized) content - and it's not difficult. And the beauty of it is, just about anyone can do it - from teenagers to the elderly, particularly if you have some expertise in the topic area.
Internet marketers are not looking for journalists for this work - for one thing, they won't pay journalist rates. And it is not Pulitzer Prize writing that they are seeking. They want material that is topic-specific, with correct keyword placement, good grammar and spelling.
Knowing how to assemble a good article is perhaps the first step, as article marketing is one of the most often used techniques for getting links and traffic. Articles can be added to free publication sites, and posted on the marketers website as well - great, original content.
How Much Will You Earn?
There is no easy answer to this. When you start out, you must expect to work for less than ideal rates per job, especially if you are using one of the many freelancing sites to find jobs. Here you need to develop a 'reputation' and rating from previous clients in order to build credibility with prospective clients.
If you complete your task to a high standard, you will be offered repeat business. As you build a relationship with the client and demonstrate your reliability and quality of work, you are in a position to ask for more per job. Do the right thing by your client, and they will reward you with loyalty.
I never deliver substandard work, and make sure I maintain my standards. And I recruit writers as well, some I have had for several years, others never get invited back.
Bottom line? Research what is out there, get good basic training, and give it a go. Don't expect to make millions initially, but work on building a strong, high quality client base, and like me, you will have the beginning of a great, rewarding, home-business.
