Outsourcing Your Content Writing

November20

A lot of webmasters use articles to provide content for their readers to enjoy, or to promote a product. If your website is a small one you may be able to handle the article writing on your own. However in some cases you will definitely need to consider the services of a ghostwriter to help you.

A ghostwriter is a person who writes anonymously, meaning their name does not appear as the author of the article. The webmaster who pays for the article to be written, also pays for the rights to the article.

There are several reasons one may decide to use the services of a ghostwriter. I have listed 4 of these reasons below:

1. Your website is growing and you can’t write fast enough. Your website visitors will only continue coming to a site that provides consistent fresh content. A website that doesn’t provide new content for their visitors is like inviting friends over for dinner and serving them leftovers from last week. I can assure you they will not quickly return to your house for dinner! Nor will your website visitors return to your website if they find the same content over and over. What need is there to return?

Serving up fresh content is a must if you really want your visitors to return. If your website is growing fast and you don’t have enough hours in the day to write you should outsource this task to a ghostwriter. The fresher the content is, the more traffic you will have. That’s the reason blogging is so popular: the content is always changing. If you want visitors you really must provide constantly updated unique content. A fast-growing website means you will also need to update fast and that usually means you need help. Outsourcing to a qualified ghostwriter can help you keep that traffic coming.

2. You can sell but you can’t write. Yep, it’s true that some people can’t write and you may be one of them. In fact, you may even think you don’t need articles because all you are doing is “selling widgets”. On the contrary, you do need content of all sorts even if you aren’t planning to use articles to drive traffic to your site. You need: product descriptions, pre-sell pages, thank-you pages and about-us pages to name a few. You need all sorts of informational pages on your site or it will become a dull, boring blight on the internet landscape. The truth is your site will die if you don’t keep it alive with interesting information that keeps people returning.

Ghostwriters to the rescue! Thankfully, there are people who can write and who love to write. A ghostwriter can provide you with custom articles, product descriptions, pre-sell pages, thank you pages - even press releases, relieving you from the task of writing so you can focus on selling and customer service.

3. Time is limited and you simply don’t have time to write. Many webmasters hold down a full time job and work on the Internet in their spare time. Maybe you have a dozen plus websites and can’t keep up the pace of writing for so many sites to keep them fresh. Maybe you’re a full-time wife and mother.

Whatever the reason many website owners simply don’t have time to dedicate to writing content. The good news is that even if you are working 40 hours a week on a full time job, or 24 hours a day as a wife and mother you can still earn money on the Internet. Yes, you still need good, quality content. Thankfully it’s not hard to locate a qualified content ghostwriter these days! By using the services of a ghostwriter “you can have your cake and eat it too”, meaning you can keep your current job or role as wife and mother and build up a nice Internet business on the side. What a deal.

4. You hate to write. If a person decides to become a chef but they hate to cook the advice would be, “stay out of the kitchen!”Likewise a person who hates to deal with people on a personal level would be an utter failure as a pastor of a church - a very people-oriented job. A sure path to failure is to choose a career one hates.

The good news is that you can hate to write (and websites require lots of writing) and still have a huge success story when you start outsourcing your content writing to ghostwriters. So, if you simply hate to write don’t fret! Chalk it up as one more reason to outsource your content to a qualified ghostwriter. Not that you really need a reason; outsourcing is good business, allowing you to double and triple your income without doubling or tripling your workload. What other reason do you need?

If You Can’t Find A Great Freelance Copywriter…

November18

What do you do if you’ve found a few established website copywriters, but you either can’t afford their fees, or they’re too booked to take your projects? Don’t despair, because if you’re creative, you can find several other alternatives. You may even be able to find a copywriter who’s willing to do a limited service for you, as discussed below.

Below, I’ll offer you 4 alternatives to hiring website copywriters. There are more than the 4 listed here, but these should help you to get an idea of what’s possible.

The 4 Alternatives To Website Copywriters

Learn To Write Persuasive, Direct-Response Web Copy Yourself.

This can be a daunting task, especially if you’re “not a good writer.” Even good writers who don’t understand direct-response copywriting would still have to go through a learning curve.

Website copywriting is a full-time profession which requires a lot of time and dedication to become good at. You may already be devoting enough time and effort to your business, however, consider this: if you learn how to communicate effectively with your site visitors, in a way that compels them, you’ll ultimately earn more profits.

Ask A Website Copywriter If They’ll Do Professional Critiques For You

It’s too bad most copywriters fail to even mention this service to potential clients. This is perhaps the best of the 4 alternatives listed here. Short of offering their full services, a professional web copywriter can offer to go over your current web copy, and suggest a number of changes you can make to improve your results.

Test, Track, and Figure Out What Works

Just a small change in your web copy, or in how you do things, can significantly alter your response. It’s been known that a simple change to one word in a headline can increase results dramatically. How you present your offer, how you state your guarantee, and the contrasting of colors on your web page are three of many changes you can make, and determine if such changes have increased your results.

Even though most web copywriters understand tracking and conversion, they may not be technically-inclined enough to understand howto do it. If you find one who does, ask if they offer testing and tracking services to their clients.

Salesletter Templates

If I were to say, “the intro, the body, the conclusion,” what would come to your mind? You’d probably recall your grade school days when you learned how to write a simple essay. A salesletter template is very much the same thing. It guides you to along the A-Z of writing your own web copy. Though there are limitations to using salesletter templates, this option is better than nothing if you can’t find a qualified copywriter to create a promotion for you.

Freelance Copywriting Jobs

November16

Many people are looking new ways to bring in more income because of the rising cost of living. A lot of people are forced to take on more than one job at a time and work far more hours in order to make ends meet. Taking on a part time job is the common response to this situation.

Freelancing is a great alternative to picking up part time work. Of those that become freelancers, most say it is far better than taking on a second job. This is especially true with copywriters because freelance copywriting has turned out to be an extremely lucrative field.

The demand for copywriters stays high because businesses always need to competitively market their products. Freelance copywriters work on a project-per-project basis instead of regular employment. Freelance copywriters generally make more money that employed copywriters as well. This is partly due to the fact that they get to keep all of their profits instead of splitting them with an advertising agency or parent company.

Here are some other great benefits to working as a freelance copywriter:

A Flexible Schedule

Freelance copywriters do not have a prescribed schedule: You do not have to work a fixed number of hours per week. This means that you are in control of your time and you get to determine your work schedule. Often freelance copywriters are given a specific time period in which they can finish their assignments. The shorter the time period, the higher the pay. In fact, they can actually negotiate a higher price if the client needs the project completed quickly.

Because of their flexible hours, freelance copywriters can do several assignments at once and accept more than one freelancing assignment at a time. This also means that freelancers have to manage their time well. If they miss a deadline, they can hurt their career and hinder their chances at success. But, because they can take on more projects, freelance copywriters can earn a significantly higher salary than other employed copywriters.

Flexible Workload

Freelancing is also a viable option for people with a family. As a freelance copywriter you dictate your schedule, meaning that you can make sure to be there for your family. Because of the inherent flexibility in the work, you can work harder when things are slow and back off when your family needs you. It?s a great way to earn more money and spend more time with your family.

Training While Earning

Compared to other jobs, freelance copywriting allows you to do what you already know how to do. This means that you don’t have to learn a whole new trade, but its smart to continue learning in order to keep your product competitive.

These are just some of the benefits freelance copywriting has to offer. Freelancing your services allows you to take control of your career and future. It?s a great way to see the rewards of your labor. If freelance copywriting looks like it could benefit your situation, then go ahead and do some research in order to see if it is right for you.

Understanding the Benefits of Private Label Articles

November13

Now more than ever fresh content is vital for Internet Marketing success. The fact is that without a constant stream of fresh content you will not get the traffic needed. Unfortunately, writing fresh content is time consuming.

Because there are so many things that demand your time and energy writing articles is usually the last thing on your list of “things to do.” At this point you probably think you have 2 options: hire a ghostwriter or outsource to content provider companies. While these are great option, the cost is sometimes quite high. If you can afford it, great! If not you should consider the next best option: private label rights articles.

Private label rights (PLR) articles are generally also written by ghost writers. Even though you didn’t personally hire them you may still use the articles as your on after purchasing them. There is a downside to using PLR articles; they are usually not written for a specific niche as there are many customers.

To better utilize private label rights articles, you need to look for companies offering PLR articles with specific topics that you need. This way, you can use them as you need them. Another consideration for looking at companies that offer PLR articles if that there should be limited membership. Limited membership means limiting article distribution as well.

With private label right articles you can rewrite them to make it look like it is your work as there are many others who probably got the same article. Making the PLR article unique builds credibility and keeps your visitors interested in what you have to say. If you simply cannot or will not rewrite the article you should at least add an introduction or personal comments.

Why use PLR articles? Because you need fresh content for your newsletters, website content, and blogs. Purchasing PLR articles helps webmasters to minimize efforts and cost of hiring writers. And, because PLR content is quickly available you can get them on the website in no time at all.

If you decide to use private label rights articles on your website, make sure you purchase them from a company that provides fresh articles and has your success in mind. When you find such a company you will want to stay in your membership.

PLR articles do serve a useful purpose for webmasters who cannot afford to hire a ghostwriter or who cannot write their own content. If you decide to use PLR content pay careful attention to the points we’ve discussed in this article and choose the membership site that is right for you.

Hiring a Ghostwriter

November12

What do presidents, candidates for political office, political debaters and Internet Marketers have in common? Writers. They all need original content.

The political leader engages a speech writer; the webmaster outsources to a freelance article writer. Both entities are ghostwriters who receive no credit for his work. The speaker or webmaster receives all the glory.

Ghostwriters and speech writers have been used by our governmental leaders for 100’s of years. It has been reported that Alexander Hamilton was the speech writer for George Washington. If that is an accurate report, then Alexander Hamilton is probably the most famous ghostwriter of all times.

A ghost writer is a writer who works for hire and upon culmination of the project relinquishes all rights to the project. Nearly all politicians use ghost writers to write their memoirs, correspondence and speeches. Webmasters use ghost writers to write their articles because they either don’t have the time or talent to keep their website updated with original, tailored content.

In this article we are going to explain the process of hiring a ghostwriter to write those unique articles for your site. Following are a few tips to help with the process:

Be prepared. Do not talk with a ghostwriter without being aware of what you want. Do you require technical data? Will the articles demand in-depth research? How many words do you require? What idea do you wish the article to communicate?

Don’t tell the ghostwriter to “write me an article on dieting” - a subject that has thousands of subtopics and methods. If you don’t understand what you want I can guarantee you the ghostwriter will not delight you, no matter how much they charge or how experienced they are. They are writers, not sorcerers.

Be professional. If you need to hire a freelance writer but you are clueless as to how much they charge or how they work you could end up losing your shirt. Hop over to Google and search for “custom articles”, “freelance writers” and “ghost writers” and see what they are charging.

Some will post their rates on the Internet. When you find what the “going rate” for ghostwritten articles is you can develop your budget for the expense. Or, after the research you may determine you can’t afford a ghostwriter.

Ask for an estimate. Many times internet sites will publish their rates so you can easily determine what the project will cost. At other times you may need to ask for a quotation.

Or, perhaps you are advertising on one of the freelance sites such as elance.com or getafreelaner.com. As indicated in Item #1, Be Prepared. Cover the following points in your query or posting: a) the length of the Article (i.e. how many words); b) topic (or title) for each article; c) your Deadline; d) how much you will be able to pay; and, e) how you plan to pay them (paypal, google, etc.).

Be Specific. What do you want? Whether you believe it or not there is a difference in “content articles” for your web visitors to read and “keyword articles” written to improve your SEO (search engine optimization).

Do you want both? Tell them. Find out if the ghost writer has expertise in people-pleasing content that will also delight the search engines and boost your search engine ranking.

Keep your bottom line in view. Don’t overpay for your articles. Always keep accurate records of income vs. expenditures and remember that the reason you are employing a freelancer to write those unique custom articles for your website is to increase the traffic, thus the earnings, to your website.

How Freelance Copywriters Help Clients

November11

The Internet has become a valuable resource for a lot of people. Besides email and research, the Internet also helps facilitate business. Electronic commerce has become a vital form of business recently, but in order to do it well Internet entrepreneurs need copywriters.

Businesses need to have a website in order to sell a product. But many websites fail to sell their products. A successful sale requires good web-content and marketing.

Most people don’t know how to properly advertise a product, but many entrepreneurs are willing to pay someone who does. Freelance copywriters are able to offer their services to clients looking to sell a product. But there are a lot of copywriters out there, so you need to do a few things in order to help your success as a copywriter.

First you should create your own website. Many copywriters do not have their own website and building one for yourself could give you an edge over your competition. You should also build a portfolio that includes examples of your best work, a sales letter explaining why you’re the best candidate for the job, and testimonials from your past clients. These simple steps will help you gain more clients.

As you start to work with a client, you need to understand what they want. Different products need to be sold differently. Make sure to come to terms about what is to be accomplished. Politely listen to what the client wants, but don’t be afraid to offer your input, you’re the expert and they are not. That is why they hired you. If you know a better way to sell a product, then don’t be afraid to voice your ideas if they contradict the vision of your client. In the end, if it results in higher sales, they will be happy.

As you learn about your client?s product, make sure to do some background research so you know exactly what you’re doing. As the copywriter you’re supposed to know how to advertise products, so don’t assume anything. If the client pays you a lot of money and you fail to help sell their product, they’re not going to be happy with you. So make sure you know your client’s market well, for bad testimonies can break your business.

Make sure your client knows what to expect. You don’t want them to be disappointed because they miss-understood what to expect from their product. Sometimes it takes time for a new advertising strategy to show signs of more sales. If that?s the case, then make sure you client knows it.

If building the website is part of your contract, then before launching the product, make sure your client likes the site. The client can pretend to be a customer and look around. If they aren’t happy, or find any bugs, be optimistic and try to meet their needs the best you can without compromising the success of your product launch.

Once completed, make sure your client knows how to manage whatever you did for them. As your client base grows, your business will start to increase and you can begin raising your rates. Your success is directly determined by how much time and effort you put into your work. Great success is certainly possible.

Your hard work will pay itself off, and you get to enjoy being part of successful products. Knowing that you played an integral part in a successful product is very rewarding by itself. I hope this article helped you see another dimension to freelance copywriters: what they do and how they do it. Freelance copywriting is very rewarding. Since you are your own boss, you determine your work schedule. You can also work from anywhere in the world as long as you have an Internet connection. You should look more closely into freelance copywriting if it interests you.

A Few Pointers About Freelance Copywriting

November8

For some people, going freelance is the best way to start up a new career. And why not? By becoming a freelancer, you don’t have a boss, you don’t have a restricted work schedule, and you don’t have to dress up and go to work because you can work from home.

BECOMING A FREELANCE COPYWRITER

Copywriting is one of the more successful freelancing industries. Many copywriters have discovered the freedom and the benefits of freelance copywriting on the Internet. Freelance copywriting as either a full time or part time career can be demanding. If you are already familiar with copywriting, or if you’re just starting out, here are some things to consider when becoming a freelancer.

1. Build yourself a website. Many copywriters do not have web pages and building one could give you an advantage over some of your competition. It also acts as a shop front for clients looking for a copywriter.

It should also be cross-browser compatible, easy to use, readable and professional looking. If you already have a personal site, don’t use it to promote your services as a freelance copywriter. It is best if you create a new site that is dedicated in promoting your services as a freelance copywriter.

2. Build a portfolio. Your portfolio will function as your resume as potential clients consider hiring you. It should include examples of your best work, a sales letter explaining why you are the best copywriter for the job, and testimonials from clients.

3. Market yourself. You can be the best copywriter the world has seen, but if no one knows who you are then you won’t have any clients. Therefore invest time and money into learning how to effectively market yourself. It will be a worthwhile investment.

4. Don’t expect a lot as you’re starting out. If you are already an established copywriter with a client base, then you might be able to see some real success immediately. But if you are just starting, then you might not see a lot of money for a little while. Getting paying clients can take a little time. So you should do some work for free. This will help get your name out there and you can start building up your portfolio. Success is possible, as long as you put a lot of time and effort into your business you are bound to start making money.

5. Constantly learn. It doesn’t matter how long you have been a copywriter, you still need to learn how to improve your copy. You could study all the information on copywriting all your life and still not finish it, meaning that you can always learn something. You need to stay competitive, as long as you keep learning your success will grow. The best freelancers out there are constantly studying how to improve their product.

6. Keep your day job for a while. Since you’re just starting your freelancing career, you should keep your day job in order to cover your financial needs initially. You may have to work double, but it will be worth it. With that said, you should quit your day job as soon as you can in order to devote all your resources on your freelancing career. Freelance copywriting will not bring complete success until you quit your regular job.

These points were supposed to give you a general idea about freelance copywriting. Hopefully this article helped you see what was included in freelance copywriting. You never know, freelance copywriting may be the career move for you. You should do some more research to find out.

How–To’s” On Freelance Copywriting

November5

Copywriting is a great career. It is one of those jobs that can weather a recession pretty well. Since businesses need to advertise their products, despite the condition of the economy, they will always need copywriters to do it effectively. A good businessman knows that cutting the advertising budget only means weaker sales, so there is always a demand for good copywriters.

Furthermore, freelance copywriting combines the security of copywriting and the benefits of freelancing into one great career. Freelance copywriters get to dictate their own work schedules, workloads, and they can work from anywhere that has an Internet connection. You can also make more money freelancing than as a regularly employed copywriter. As a freelancer you can take on more projects if you wish to bring in more money and you don’t have to split your profits with an advertising agency or parent company.

As a freelancer, you work on a project-to-project basis. You apply for a project, the client examines your bid, and if you win the bid they give you a contract with a deadline for completion. This means you can dictate when you work because you only need to get the project done by the deadline, other than that your schedule doesn’t matter. Be sure to keep your deadlines though, because missing deadlines will hurt your career. As a beginner in the field you will need help finding work, here are a few short “how-to’s” in order to get you started:

Get On The Internet

There are a number of copywriting jobs on the Internet. Online freelance marketplaces are great places to find work. Sites like www.elance.com allow copywriters and clients to find each other. Here you can create a profile, post your portfolio of some of your best work, and bid on projects. They also have automated messaging services that will alert you to jobs that may interest you.

You should make a website as well. Clients will look at your website as if it were a storefront window. Potential clients can also use it to examine your work before they hire you. Your site should be neat, easy to read, and professional looking.

Establish A Network

You need to get your name into the market and industry. Otherwise you will have a very difficult time getting clients. Go to seminars and get to know other copywriters. Do some free projects in order to build a client base. You can also partner with other copywriters on larger projects. These things will help build a stable place for your business to grow.

Educate Yourself

No matter how good you are you should always improve the quality of your copy. Your writing is the backbone to your business and success; therefore it makes sense to invest large amounts of time into bettering it. Look into online tutorials or coaching courses. Many successful freelance copywriters have coaching courses and workshops designed to teach others their success. You can also read books by the experts, such as Dan Kennedy.

You should also write everyday. Stephen King once compared working-out at the gym to writing: the more you do it the stronger you become. Therefore you should write everyday, this will help your writing improve immensely.

Hopefully this article has helped you understand how to start a freelancing career. Freelance copywriting is a very rewarding and flexible job. It gives you a level of freedom you can’t find in most careers. If you want to learn more about freelance copywriting, then you should do some more research into the subject.
