Hello I am here to learn more about making some living online. Currently I'm a writer for hire. Since English is not my native language I have hard time getting clients. I put up a blog hopping to earn some affiliate income. I am not sure if I can give links here, but I will look around for the kind of board where I can put up the address for reviews.

I'm a father of two wonderful kids. Right now they are the one inspiring me to stay up at night and wake up each morning.

I hope I find the company of other people who are taking the same journey I have here.

  • Everything in this world either began as a dream or an idea and we all have to start somewhere.

    Welcome to the Warrior Forum, and the world of internet marketing. This forum has a lot of great information. You will have a lot of information to sort through if you are just beginning, don't let it get you down.

    I would recommend you start with a goal and work towards that goal. Maybe instead of looking for people to pay you for your writing you should start writing and marketing your own books and products.

    I found that by marketing my own products I can earn a comfortable living and I end up earning more. Why get paid only once to write something when you can sell it over and over again.

    Good luck!

    Ben

    We all share your story in some form or fashion. Just in case writing is not going to work out for you, I recommend either identifying other services you are qualified to offer or learning said skills. Don't have all of your eggs in one basket!

    If you wanna write English, know the difference between hoping and hopping. The same for Joe Robinson, know the difference between fashion and passion. Alright, guys?!

      You have never heard the phrase "in some form or fashion?"

      Do a quick Google search for the phrase, educate yourself, and don't try to be condescending to other members. Trust me, there are plenty who have a better grasp of the English language than you do.

      Oh, and I think you meant to you "want to" over "wanna" :rolleyes:.

        You're right on that one Joe!

        I've never heard the phrase "form or passion"

    You are in a good start, just make sure when you dream you should make way to achieve it. Achieving something you ever dream of is definitely a great achievement. You've got your inspiration, for sure you can make it even further. I am also a dreamer and for sure the rest of the people in this room too

    Ha ha the "hoping" and "hopping" thing reminds me of an old front page newspaper headline series that ran around Easter one year (scary, this is 20 years ago now). A friend of mine had it cut out and in his desk blotter. We're almost at Easter again. The first words of four headlines were big and bold, with the rest of their content in much smaller font.

    The big words were Hip, Pit, He, Hop.

    I don't know if being a writer is the best way for you to make money online, especially because English isn't your native language. I mean, if you feel confident in writing, then more power to you, but there are tons of other ways to make money online...writing is really only a small portion of what you could do to actually make a living on the internet. Forums like these are a great place to get ideas, though. Good luck to you--dreamer.

    Hello and welcome to the forum. It is important to diversify. Rather than just writing, use other methods of cash generation as well. Also, instead of writing for others, write for yourself...an ebook, short report, etc and sell it yourself. Start with your passion and find like minded people to offer your product to. Hope this helps.

    If nobody hires you for a writing job, why don't you start by creating your own blog site and post your original article. And slowly create your own ebook.
