So you want to Make Money by Writing Online?
Making money by writing online from home sounds like a great idea to most people. After all, writing is easy work, right? It's not like you'll be doing any manual labor, or even normal office work. Many people seem to think that anyone can make money by writing online. If you look at the majority of articles on eHow, it's easy to see where they get that impression. It is, however, important to consider that not everyone can really make money by writing online.
In order to succeed as an online writer, you should be able to answer in the affirmative to the following questions:
1. Do you have an excellent command of the English language, including punctuation, spelling, and grammar?
2. Do you understand the rudiments of search engine optimization? (If not, are you willing to take the time to learn?)
3. Do you have the time to invest in building up multiple streams of income?
4. Are you willing to take your writing seriously, and work at it like a 'real job'?
Most importantly, if you want to make money by writing online:
5. Do you love to write?
If you answered in the negative to any of these questions, you might want to consider keeping your day job until you have the time, motivation, and skills to pursue online writing as a full-time career.
