Video marketing is also called video SEO. Now it has become an important part of internet marketing. I started my writing career in 2007 as a medical content writer in a medical tourism firm at Nagpur (Maharashtra). My task was to give maximum online exposure, to the firm among foreign patients. I did this task by creating eye catching content. I wrote and submitted content in form of informative articles, press releases, blogs, news letters and video marketing.

Ways to Write Effective Articles

Article writing helps in sharing knowledge and offline SEO:

There are many simple ways to write effective articles. Articles have become the most important source of information. They have gained an important place in offline search engine optimization of websites. Writing articles to promote services, ad campaigns and products is an important part of internet marketing. The language and style of an article may depend upon the mind set of writer. The composition pouring out of writer’s mind is the result of his goal to write for himself, readers of search engines. Being a casual or professional writer doesn’t affect the quality of articles. One can write effective articles if he/she knows for whom the content has to be written. If you write as a hobby or share your knowledge with online readers, just write niche content freely to keep readers interested. While submitting articles on self created blogs you won’t have to care much about submission guidelines. However if you are writing on article submission sites like Ezine, Articles Base and others… read their article submission guidelines before creating content.

Creating articles for search engine optimization:

Search engine optimization is a big factor in ranking of websites on internet. You may have seen many websites on net selling same commodity. Some rank higher on search engines and others go down. Some simply vanish from the scene. The quality of content and theme based keywords in SEO decide the ranking of websites. Creating SEO optimized articles is the easiest method to highlight online presence of a website. Simple tips can help you to write eye catching search engine optimized articles:

1)  Make a research about the topic, you want to write. Search powerful keywords concerning the article topic. You may use free or paid keyword generating tools to catch and use potent keywords. For example if you are writing for Amazon stores, you would find Amazon shopping as a powerful keyword. Most keyword generating tools will suggest it for your content.

2)  Use the primary keyword in main title of your article. It would help your readers to ascertain the subject or theme of your article. Even search engine spiders may catch the title and review the article.

3)    Highlight the primary keyword in an SEO oriented article in inform density. Write in such a way that content may look informative, yet it should not appear as if stuffed with keywords. As far as I know if a content of 100 words should highlight primary of theme based keyword 1-2 times. If you write an article of 400 words you will have to target main keyword at least 1 time while writing every 100 words.

4)   Use keyword variants and secondary keywords to enhance the utility of your article. If you write about insurance, adore your content with some secondary keywords like insurance premium, insurance sellers, insurance rates etc.

5)    Use a simple and informative language. Some writers are clever enough to use language of ad campaigns. Of course this style can attract readers initially. However such articles are recognized as promotional campaigns by article submission sites and search engines.

6)  The best way to write effective articles is to create an author’s biography or article conclusion at the end of content. It helps readers to know about the author and draw a meaningful theme of created article.

How to Earn a Full Time Income from Freelance Writing

Earn full time or part time income from freelance writing:

Today everybody desires to make income through comfortable modes. Some persons seek to earn extra bucks besides doing full time job. Freelance writing is such a profession that easily fulfills these two objectives. You can work from home as a full time or part time professional. In recent years work from home, has become a hot topic between job seekers and work providers. As far as I know, freelance writing is the most genuine and promising comfortable profession. You get paid for writing tasks. The more you write, the more you earn. Moreover if you write better, your demand as a professional freelance writer increases between work providers. You can negotiate for better rates with freelance work providers as an experienced freelancer.

What to write as a freelance professional:

Content writing involves many tasks. You can write informative articles, press releases, user guides and white papers for website owners. You can also write unique web page content for websites under construction. If you are expert at writing without grammar errors, you can even work as a freelance editor. Many companies and website owners do not have time to write or edit official content. They also seek eligible writers to get promoted by them on internet. You can get sufficient work from them. While taking any freelance task, keep one chant in mind “I will write at my best and deliver the completed task within prescribed deadline”. You can choose and get writing tasks according to your skill.

You may write on any topics like health care, technology, travel, how to guides, fashion, dating, family & relationships, consumer commodities, electronic devices and gadgets. Most freelance assignments available today revolve around these topics. Many institutions need academic content writers. They need someone who could write educational content for books and informative websites. If you are good at academic writing, go ahead for it. Many commercial website owners need more niche traffic and online visitors, for getting sales leads. They often hire freelance writers to get online website promotion. You can approach such work providers for getting freelance writing assignments.

Where to get freelance writing work:

The best way to find home based writing job is to register at freelance job sites like Elance.com, Guru.com and Freelancer.com Today hundreds of freelance work sites have been setup. They help to ease interaction among professional content writers and work providers. I have just named some trusted and famous freelance work sites. Before joining any freelance job site you can check its user ratings and service reviews. Most freelance job sites offer free, Premium, Silver and Gold memberships for writing professionals. You can start as a free member and start negotiating with work providers. For getting more online communication options with clients, you can signup a Premium, Silver or Gold membership account. Most freelance work sites charge 10% commission on freelance work payments, received from clients. In return they keep the money from work provider as a security for you. When the writing task is complete and client declares his satisfaction, payments are released for you by Escrow and Milestone methods. Money is paid to you by these sites through Pay Pal service. This is the easiest and safest method to pay and receive online money.

Deciding rates of freelance writing:

Better peep into online freelance job market to set your rates. You can charge per word in cents. You can also keep a standard price for a content of 400 words. As a fresher you can easily get $ 1.5 U.S for a content of 400 words. Price of writing tasks also depends upon complexity of concerned subject. For example many work providers pay a nice rate of $ 5 U.S to $ 10 U.S for writing a page of medical or technology content. As an article writer if you write 8 nice articles of a medium word count (400 words), you earn $ 12 per day (8 articles x $1.5 US). So you earn a monthly income of $ 360 U.S as a beginner. Your earnings increase with more quantity of completed tasks. You can earn a 5 figure income as an experienced writer on getting higher rates per word. Learn to negotiate with work providers by displaying your previous samples of high quality content.

How to set work hours: 

Some people think freelance writing can be done with flexibility of work hours. It’s true, but I think one can feel comfortable by maintaining fixed hours. If you work daily for a fixed time, say 8 hours you can complete more work. You can take a break in case of gap between one completed writing task and commencement of new task. Choose day or night hours as its suits you. I would suggest work at that time when your creativity is at the highest level. If you write during early morning hours, it would help you to generate new ideas. During this time mind is fresh and free from daily mental stress. Others can choose work hours according to their daily routine.

Thank You!
