Freelance writing can be a tough job at times. Finding clients and finishing tasks takes a lot of time. It’s a risky career and you’ll never know when the work will slow down.
That’s why it’s always good to know how else you can earn extra money by writing.
Here are some great tips you can try:
Start A Blog
This is one of the best things you can do for yourself. Do you have a hobby? A passion? Are you skilled in a craft? Blog about it.
There are so many profitable niches out there that you could write about. For example, you could create a lifestyle blog and write about beauty, fitness or mental health. You could also give writing tips, share reviews, talk about parenting or even knitting.
It’s a great opportunity for you to build a platform and earn some extra money with affiliate marketing and Google ads. With a small investment, you could earn a great income.
Edit and Proofread
Editing and proofreading are perfect tasks for any writer because you are already very good at editing your own articles and stories. Just implement those rules on your tasks and you’ll be good at your job. Look up these jobs online on JobRack or Upwork.
