Hello Warriors
I was wondering what can i do to make a good pocket money for myself without spending a penny. Some good soul directed me to write articles and i dived into the mainstream immediately.
Having only worked for a week, I made $200. And the best part is, I never spent anything on advertising my services. May be the luck saw my home, but I worked really hard to do it.
Writing articles becomes a fun activity if you love writing. If you are looking for a quick start, I suggest that you start with article writing as it also open many doors into internet marketing.

  • Perfect example of someone who absorbed the
    information and took action.

    No information paralysis, and turned writing into
    a passion... Def good steps for a beginner. You'll
    be surprise in how much you learn in 90 days from
    now.

    • Yeah I am looking forward to do some more of it but being a software engineering student restricts me from working too much as i have to maintain a balance between work and study. So far so good. =)



      Thanks warriors,
      Well, i tried a total different strategy and went to the owner of new websites and presented them with my offer. They threw in the order for me. Wrote only 22 articles in total in a week, on the keywords that they provided me.
      I can see some new orders pouring in my mail box, as i write .....

    • An attractive article does not have to be long. If its juicy enough to grab the attention of the reader till end and then finally makes the reader to take prompt action .... then your job is done .... that is a powerful article...
  • Congratulations man!

    Keep going . rinse and repeat .

    Mike
  • That is one good way to get business. Go out and find it. Keep up the good work.

    Congratulations! I'm very happy for you. Keep doing it well and you will keep having the dollars. Now, you don't need to pay for a special or classified advertisement.

    All you need to do is to acquire a $10 domain related to your service, get hosting, install wordpress, put your samples and testimonials, name your price and you will have more jobs.

    Cheers.

    ADVICE TO WHOEVER CARES:

    Please don't go into article writing service because you need a quick cask. You may never get the quick cash if you lack the necessary skills. Learn the skills first. For example, you must know your grammar and spellings. You must know the language, English, to an acceptable extent. Quality matters in this business. So, if you are looking at the money without looking at the work involved, you may be totally disappointed.

    Article writing can fetch you more than $200 per day, week...if you take it as a business by learning the requisite skills first.

    • Thanks buddy... I am planning to build a small website for my writing services, but i cannot overlook the importance of my engineering studies.

      The advice is really helpul and clears the doubts of "quick cash" in article marketing...
    • Infact, anyone who would look at the financial outcome but doesn't pay attention to the work offered in return for it will never succeed Great advice.

    Hey my friend,

    just read your post where you stated to made 200$ a week with article

    article marketing myself, and have been doing it since quite a bit,
    and I´m ready to start such a project myself.


    Thanks for your support,

    Gerald

      Good luck

    • Thanks guys... Have an awesome year ahead....

      No problem bro.... just drop in any of queries in my mailbox, i will try my best to respond to them....

      lol ... thank you Wilson, I do not want to accelerate this right away... taking it to the greater heights with caution is my strategy ...
  • I'm happy that you've finally found something that worked for you.

    I'm a writer as well. I'm releasing my book this summer, but I usually have a hard time writing about stuff that I am not interested in - such as a lot of the things people wanna hire you for.

    My only tip to you is to create a affiliate website about something that interests you. If you don't get rich by doing that - I'm willing to switch names.
  • Keep writing mate, but remember when doing article article marketing, content creation and keyword research are the most important things online. How many articles you write a day ? and do you do keyword research ?

    Best Regards,

    Alex Fields.
  • Well done, love seeing success stories - it's all about taking action!
  • so far ... the keywords were provided by the clients so i didn't really had to brainstorm alot.
    I can summon up 3 well-researched and juicy articles a day....
  • Congratz mate. Usually ladies are asking from me "How to make money online", Actually this is the best job for them to start IM.

    Regards

  • Congratulations! As a newbie myself this is very encouraging!
  • That is just the start! Congratulations and think of how much you'll earn if you are in vacation? Wow, you will be tripling that $200 or better!

    • thanks for sharing your story, I have also started to get into writing articles for others and for my own marketing. I actually really enjoy writing and it has always been a strength of mine.

      I have written a few articles after responding to an add in this forum and now I am thinking of advertising my services to bring in some more work.

      This thread is great motivation for a newbie to IM to just take action and start working!
  • Keep up the good work. I write 10 articles a day and have had good success.
  • I really like this method, it's different to the typical " article writing service ".You're approaching websites, rather than website owners looking for you to write content.

    Great Work!

    Thank you for posting, its got me thinking.
  • Instead of appreciating me (which I like, actually) why don't you guys post your ideas about how you get work from different people looking for article writers!!!
  • great work 6th player...

    all of us need motivation now and then... success stories and also sharing your avenues for making money to others makes us keep the fire a lit
  • that's cool.. i suggest you to invest a little bit .. to go more highter with your earnings
  • 6thplayer,

    Congratulations on your payday. Keep prospecting and you'll soon be earning $400 or more per week. There are any number of forums on the web looking for writers. You probably already know the old standbys. Here is a way a friend of mine gets business.

    He emails website owners a free review on the wording of a paragraph or two on their landing page. He suggests words and placement to make the info flow better. He's done pretty good money wise as a result.

    Just a thought.

  • I would have loved to join in this writing business, but the most unfortunate thing is that paypal does not accept people from my country. Does anyone know how I could still get into this business?

    Keep it up dude. Cheers=)
  • Wow, KingOfSeo! You're only 15, very talented age don't mean nothing huh? lol Yo, can we talk man, I want to learn how to do SEO... It's embarrassing a 18 year old getting info from a 15 year old... 3 years difference! -_____-
  • Great job! Keep up the good work. Hope I could have the same income for just only a week as what you've received. What site did you submit your articles? I am also into article making but haven't reached that large of money for a week. Maybe, I need some persistence and hard work.
  • Well done dude! Great way to earn extra income! May you scale up your business and earn your 1st $400, $600 per week soon!

    Cheers,
    Lester
  • Thanks Warriors,
    I want to draw the attention of new article writer to this important factor.
    If you don't like writing then you should not waste your time tapping your fingers on the keyboard. Do something else that is not boring to you. Though article writing is a good way to kick start a career in internet marketing but it is only for passionate writers who are persistant in their work....
    GOOD LUCK ...
  • Wow Great news! How did you do it? Do you care to share?
  • Thank you for sharing your success with us. It motivates many of us to keep on going, and with a positive attitude.
  • The thing I like about your wonderful success is that you did it different. You thought out of the box and I like that.

    Congrats on your success. I hope you make a ton more.

    • Sounds like a dead-simple, no brainer way to make sales pretty quickly.

      Kind of reminds me of some of Travis Sago's new bum marketing methods. Instead of just writing articles & posting them on article directories hoping for sales ... offer your articles to webmasters directly who'd love to have the content.

      You could even simplify it one more step by making a series of articles and offering limited sets for one lump sum = turn the same articles into more money. (The basics of plr)
      • [1] reply
  • Although I don't really need the extra money from article writing, I really like the idea of practicing my writing that much. If I get paid WHILE I'm practicing, well that's just icing on the cake.

      You´re the first guy who I met that didn´t need money from Article Writing, why then not do it yourself for practical reasons?

      I bet that everyone wants to earn money who consider writing articles!
    • lol... that is just too cool ... keep practicing ,,, keep earning ...
    • congrats and i hope you do twice as much this week
    • Im just getting into article writing right now.

      I recently purchased 260,000 private label rights articles that are very high quality and in all the right niches. These will generate lots of new traffic if I can spin 10 articles a week, has anyone seen results from posting just 10 articles a week? I am not trying to target keywords but will SEO each page to include main words in article. What kind of results can I expect?

    HI
    you are absolutely true that article writing opens many doors.
    However i am a writer too, i also worked hard; but cant get much as you did.
    Can you send some details about your way........
  • Write Articles or Get 165,000 PLR Articles. What's your choice?

    Articles are great resources. You can definitely make money writing articles. Though the process is slow but it pays in the end. These articles can be used for various purposes.

    Although many people just submit articles to eZines with link back to their website, but articles can be used for blogging, creating news letters, using them in Auto responders and many more.

    I have thousands of PLR articles which I use for various purposes to generate income.
  • That's right, a good idea.
  • I think without the powerful content, there is low probability that your will get many sales.... What do you think???
  • Now that you've experienced some success with article writing, think about going beyond that into creating and submitting articles to article directories for yourself, and also writing PLR article packs that you can resell multiple times. While it is nice to pick up instant cash just writing articles for others, don't neglect the longer-term approaches I've listed above as well.

    • thanks Lewis,
      I actually have increased my income to about $400 a week ... it fluctuates but i am happy with it... and i am just a beginner ... =)

  • I am also into writing and I have earned a little out from it. But, haven't earned that large amount for a week only. Great job and keep up the good work! Can you share the site where you submit your articles. Give me some idea please. Thanks.

    • I have always tried to not pay for any kind of traffic. There is so many online resources that are completely free so why don't use them instead? I have never and will not pay for traffic Google sends me free traffic everyday.
  • It's all about taking action, isn't it. Unfortunately procrastination reigns with too many of us.

    Congratulations on taking action and spurring the rest of us on.

    Focus for 2011 - I keep telling myself.
  • Hi, I currently own a blog I started recently called theadvantagesanddisadvantages.com ... I posted 2 articles but have not seen any traffic at all I made these articles seo friendly and posted the focus keyword etc... how come im not getting any traffic haha... I feel discouraged but I know I am missing something... backlinks? Without backlinks the article wont go up in the serps???
  • Glad to hear that you have developed passion in writing, keep it up.
    what article you post in your article marketing, blog or blog commenting?
  • Keep up the good work, man.
  • This is amazing! What kind of articles are you writing about?
  • Thanks for sharing!

    $200 a week is a lot more than a lot of people are making. If you don't mind writing content then that is awesome. Now, how can you take it to the next level? Perhaps you can work on getting more clients and then slowly start outsourcing the writing. Then you'll have a business.

    Congrats!
