World Business Web

Whether you want to become a professional writer and live in it, or simply want to earn extra money in your spare time doing something you know very well, the list could serve as a guide for how to make money doing what much you love, which is writing.

Writing a book

The first and most obvious way to make money writing is to write a book.

To publish a book, it is usual that, once completed it, send a proposal (along with a copy or summary of the book) to all publishers as possible with the hope that they decide to adopt and publish.

However, rather than publishing through a publishing house, we can choose ourselves to design and print a printer, and then try to sell it in local bookstores, newsstands, convenience stores, etc.

Also, our book does not have to be a book of 200 pages or be a novel, but we can start by writing and publishing a short story, a manual, a guide, a book of poems, a recipe book.

Write an e-book

An alternative to writing a book in print is to write an e-book or electronic book.

After writing the e-book, we sell through a website where customers can download a Word or PDF format, on payment by credit card through a PayPal type payment pass, or by any another form of payment.

We sell our e-book on our own website, or sell through other sites that allow it.

An alternative are pages such as Lulu or Bubok, where we went our book (a novel, a story, a manual, a guide, a book of poems, etc.) Word format or PDT, and they are in charge of selling formats digital or even sell and deliver the book printed on paper.

Writing for others

Another way to make money writing is to write for others, whether for a newspaper, magazine, website, etc.

We dedicate to writing articles, reviews, columns, advertising material, etc., And work either as formal employees of a company, where he received a salary, or be free workers and benefits based on the items or work to do, or outcomes.

To begin with we look for companies or publishers who are seeking writers, or send our proposal (including some of our best work) to some local publishers.

An alternative is to write articles and reviews online at sites such as Knol Shvoong or where we earn a percentage or commission for the advertising that these sites charge advertisers.

Create a website

And finally, one of the main ways to make money writing is to create a website, whether a page of articles, an online magazine, a blog, etc., And earn money by advertising we place on it, or the products we sell.

As for advertising, we sell space where advertisers place their banners or ads in exchange for money or affiliated with any system as it allows us to place Adsense contextual ads, where we earn money primarily for clicks visitors do in these ads.

And as for selling products, we could sell our own e-books, or sell products of third parties, where we win a percentage or commission for each sale you make.

It should be noted that in order to make money with a website, the main requirement is to have a large number of visitors; the main way of achieving this is constantly adding new content, and ensuring that they are of good quality.
