How I make a living through writing by Suhaibu(m): 10:23pm On Jul 19, 2013 |
I’m a freelance writer. A decent one I’d say. I have been in the business for a couple of years… I have written a couple of hundreds of articles – from how-to formats to product reviews to Q&A style to blog posts – you name it. I mostly find writing assignments on many freelance marketplaces including oDesk.com, Elance.com. My fellow Nigerians the truth is there is market for almost everybody on the Internet. Think about eBay.com, a place where you can sell anything imaginable (including your used underwear) Think of Etsy.com, for example, where you can sell anything arty (including pottery made of clay). Think of Fiverr.com, where anyone can sell anything sellable for just $5. The market is there, but what’s not there is… laziness. People don’t make money online without doing anything; people make money by putting much effort on their venture. I can recall the last time I slept during the morning hours, as I do my writing assignment as early as 6: AM (excluding weekends). Some successful Internet entrepreneurs will tell you they don’t even sleep (that much) during the weekends. I have written more than 500 high quality articles to clients and web masters. Some of my clients include: Weekly Trust (http://www.weeklytrust.com.ng) Modern Politician (http://www.modernpolitician.com) Muchbetterthanthat (http://www.muchbetterthanthat.com) I make between $100-200 monthly. I received the payment via: GTBank wired transfer service and PayPal Bottom-line: Don’t buy into get-rich-quick scheme. Believe me, I have seen many people that lost their cash on the process. If you believe in the phrase, “get what you work for,” then start digging on the online business that TRULY works. If you have writing talent, freelance writing business could be your best bet (if you can invest N25-35K to buy a laptop computer, or just N20K to purchase a London-used Blackberry). If you don’t have writing talent, but want to learn the art of writing for pay, I have recently build a website dedicated to train you to do the business. It’s just a blog that you’ll hop in to read, at your spear time, and leave. And it’s for free I have published my first article on it… today. You can visit the site here: www.haibtext.com If you like what you read, you can subscribe to get the next articles ship directly to your inbox, as soon as fresh ones are published. The aim of the blog is to truly empower our people. The internet has brought many opportunities… and we shouldn't be left behind. I’ll be posting articles here too. Just to get as many audiences as I can. Thank you for reading my lengthy confession 3 Likes |

Suhaibu....nice post. And it's obvious you are willing to provide value instead of running after the quick buck. Most would yap about making 5000 dollars writing articles and want to sell a crap shoot book about it. |

halmat: Am good at writing but don't have 20k for laptop. How can i go about it? Hiya, Buy a London-used Blackberry. Bold 2 (9700) is OK, and follow my blog. I'll write a post detailing how to use BB to do freelance writing. |

Mr Murdah: Suhaibu....nice post. And it's obvious you are willing to provide value instead of running after the quick buck. Mr. Murdah, Yeah! And they'll never detail HOW they're getting what they're claiming. And $5000 for an article is bogus... That's the sum of some best books on Kindle. |
