Guest Blogging: Fulfill Your Love For Writing Without The Stress

If you have a knack for writing and have wondered how to turn that natural talent into extra cash on the side or a bona-fide source of income, consider the following tips to write as a guest blog post author and build a stress-free career.

Write what you Know

The variety of blogs and their topics are about as wide as one hundred city blocks. If you feel like you have a corner on knowledge of something specific, seek out a blog that covers that topic. Writing to your strengths and covering topics that you already have a solid base of information will lead to natural articles that are easy to read and engaging to readers. If you have spent time in your career working with software escrow, let your experience shine as you explain this niche to those who don’t have your background but need some pertinent information. In no time you will gain a reputation for being an expert in your field.

Write what Interests You

If you have already covered topics that you have knowledge about then move on to topics that interest you. Is there something that you have always wanted to learn more about? Do you know the basics of day trading in the stock market but would like to know how to make a living from it? Do some research and explain your new-found knowledge for others to benefit from.

Write more of What You’ve already Written

That may sound funny, but take a post you’ve written in the past and figure out a way to continue with that topic. Think of it as a part 2 of your first article. Expand on a certain element of the first post that will help readers gain a better understanding of it.

Write Often

The more often you sit down to write the more efficient your writing will be. Set aside the hours that you will work each day and stick to your schedule. Training your brain to produce work at the same time each day will produce more productive hours and more sophisticated work.

Of course you will also need to contact many blog owners in order to post to their site, but it may be best to work through a third party who will contract the work for you–most internet marketing firms are looking for writers just like you. This way you can spend your time writing instead of looking for the work. After all, in this field ‘time is money’ means more than it does in other ventures.
