Making money online doesn’t need to entail scams, or even starting a new business. If you can put a few sentences together about something other people might like to learn about, that’s a good start. Writing is a great way to make some money online, and you don’t need to be a degreed journalist with newspaper experience, nor do you need to be an experienced reporter. You just need to be able to put a few paragraphs together on a subject that people are interested in. Nowadays, writing has become the premier marketing tool – not just an entertainment medium. Using external links and article marketing can be a boon to any business, big or small.

The internet provides a wide range of outlets for any level of writing talent. “Article” no longer means a front page news story. It can include anything from consumer product reviews, blogging, news group information, forum postings, website content, and even content for “real” web based publishing houses.

Submitting content to these sites can be simple, and rewarding. You have a couple choices when  you submit your writing. You can do one, or both.

You can submit to sites that don’t pay you but they do give the opportunity to talk  about your services and your business; not in a salesy kind of way, but as a kind of expert  on the topic. At the end of your article you should place a link to your own website for the  readers to either get more information or turn into paying customers. This is where the payoff comes in article marketing.

Pretend you make gift baskets. You could write articles on how to make your own gift baskets and give readers ideas on how to decorate them and sell them. Of course, each article would have your bio talking about your company and it would have an external link to your website.

Also check out sites that do pay. They are usually a little less generous when it comes to giving you a byline or a link.

You probably aren’t going to pay off your mortgage or take a European vacation with your earnings from writing. Many famous writers over the years have died penniless. However, writing for the internet isn’t about getting rich writing, per se. It’s all about advertising what you have to offer. Try some viral marketing with your emails, too. Put a link at the bottom just like Hotmail has done for years, and direct readers to your site or at least your phone.

Are you a mortgage broker? Hair dresser? Computer repair tech? There’s nothing like adding a link on your emails with either special promotions or a link to your website. You will get customers!
