How To Get Started As A Freelance Writer Online

Freelance writing is a great way to earn an income online. People will always need content for their websites, blog posts, articles, eBooks, reports and more. There will be plenty of demand from customers once you start to build your reputation. You can pick and choose from paid online writing jobs that really appeal to you.
Having said that, it's important to differentiate yourself in some way, so that client's pick you and not somebody else. Let's look at how to get started as a freelance writer on the internet.
Determine Who You Are As A Writer
What services will you offer as a freelance writer online? Will it be producing articles, reports, eBooks, sales copy, etc. Which packages are you going to offer? How will you get clients? Why will clients seek you services rather than someone else? You need to create your USP, or Unique Selling Proposition. Remember that there's a lot of competition out there and you can't offer the same old thing everyone else is offering.
Who Are Your Clients Going To Be?
Draft a list of characteristics your ideal client has. Then, consider where you might find clients like this. Where do they hang out? What are their top needs? What will convince them to hire you? Your client base will go up and down over time. When you're first starting out, you'll feel like you just want to take any work you can get. That's okay because it's a learning process. Just make sure you don't take on too much too fast.
What Makes You Different?
There's going to be something that sets you apart from other freelance writers out there. Maybe it's your experience, background, the packages you offer, your speed or consistency. Perhaps it's your ability to innovate or be creative. Whatever it is, figure it out. Why would a client hire you? Remember that businesses aren't just hiring you to write for them. They're hiring you to produce results.
Get Better, Fast!
What if you don't have much experience as a writer yet? What if you are experienced but need a refresher on what's working now? You have to be on top of things for your clients.You need to do some fast research and fast practice. Find one small but high demand type of writing you can quickly learn and offer to businesses. Concentrate on a subset of a skill and then you can work on getting better at the skill overall.
Set Up Shop
There are always freelance writers wanted on websites like Freelancer, Upwork and Fiverr. But these sites will take a cut of your earnings and the sooner you set up a website for yourself, the better. You don't need to be a tech-wizard to set up a website these days. There are plenty of online platforms that can get your website online quickly and easily.
