How to Promote my Content Writing Service?

Check out Nick Brighton's Content Cash Cow.
Check out some of Nathan Segal's posts.

They do not give you a detailed plan but if you
take the information they provide and create a
plan then you can make some serious money.


Now. And far into the future.
Especially if you are a competent writer.


Beleive it or not but less of those exist than you
imagine. Even among professionals and
college professors.

I remember reading a post that read, "all content
producers are wasting their time."

Maybe he is so hostile towards writers because, for the life of him,
he cannot write. Bless his soul.

He is among those who sits there and lets the blank page torture him
until he has no choice but to fill it with puke.


Also, you can find high paying projects; outsource
them to a competent writer, and keep a part of the
"commission."

You can make a lot from writing.

Actually, you can establish a legitimate business that
provides killer content to companies and bring in six
figures a year without having to write any of it yourself.

And this will only be one business in your stable.

Anyway, I haven't made a dime online. Except for selling
old textbooks and a graphing calculator on Amazon.

And writing a few articles here and there.

So, take my post with a grain of salt or two.

Have you considered using any online freelancing sites, like oDesk, to get some clientele?

There was a WSO that ran some time back called "Freelance Article Writing Secrets"

I'd highly recommend that you get that and implement what it teaches you.

It's really going to help you boost the amount of money that you'll make with article writing.

People need to know your service exists, they need to know if you write quality.

Everything else deadlines, communication etc is a given.

How will they know, spend some time dishing your work out for FREE as an introduction. You will be inundated then sell to them. 1 FREE article for every 10/20 ordered perhaps.

If you are emailing your FREE article across include a sales letter.

For SEO backlinks to your site from high PR ranking sites will give your site a boost in Googles eyes. What can you offer the website owner to for him to give you one, copywriting and if you are good, maybe business comes your way.

A really helpful post for me. I will try to adhere to your words. Let us see if I be able to have some success with your ideas.

Craiglist is an option for me. But, then again the advertisements will be region specific. I want to reach all possible global clients. I never hard of Kijiji, so if you could enlighten it a bit more, that will be helpful. I do not know how to market my business through twitter either. Additionally, it will also be pretty helpful if you can name such forums where I can post my service.

Thanks to both of you for your ideas. I will keep these in mind.

Will it be good if I post some quality articles on Ezine and other prominent article directories to get some quality backlinks?

hi there I wish for the best for you project.
For you to be able to get good traffic and exposure to your newly discovered service for the benefit of other internet marketers who were in search for high quality and professional content.
For you to be able to get good clients, try posting your resume and skills to jobsites online also linking back your site.

Second, write articles as many as you can and submit them to article directories. bookmark your sire as well plus the articles that were approved in article directories- you can go here for top social bookmarking sites "socialmarker.com"

you may want to take advantage of video marketing too to intoduce your service to people.

Hope this helps.. more power.

When I first started, I got almost all of my clients from WF.

I have since branched out into different areas of writing and marketing - it is amazing what you learn from the Warrior Forum .

Good luck in your new venture.

My basic plan for my writing service has been:

-Make website with samples and testimonials
-Post in Warriors for Hire and get some testimonials and orders
-Bump thread when I don't have work

That alone gets me plenty of work. I'm never lacking in work... in fact, more often than not I am up to my ears in it, which is just how I like it!

If you enjoy writing though, I suggest you look into other options for passive income as well. I do earn plenty writing, but taking time to set up passive income will help you reach your monthly goals with less active time spent. Personally, the mix of active income through writing and passive income from my sites works better than I could have ever imagined.

Thanks for the link. I will definitely check this out and let you know if I have any questions.

Actually, I already have a site. But, it needs some design change and I will do it soon. I never ran a thread here in WF, but started some in another big webmaster forum (I think you can guess the name) and got some clients. But, the problem is that those clients are not willing to pay more than pennies. I mean the average rate is around a cent or a little bit more per word, which I feel is very insulting for a writer (I know there are plenty of people who will work for that rate and I don't want to anyway show any kind of disrespect to them). I don't think that's a good rate for me to work.

The perfect mixture of passive income+writing articles should work best for me. Thanks for your advise, it is indeed helpful.
