How to Make Money as a Writer

Article Category: Advice

Author Name: Andrew Hines

Want to take your writing to a new level and get paid for it? You'll want to keep reading!

As a writer you have value to share with the world... However, you've probably wondered on more than one occasion how to make money as a writer.

Now I'm not going to bother getting into the traditional publishing avenue because as an author you're likely aware that the publishing companies will take the majority of the profits and the process is a challenge to say the least.

The good news is that there is a better way....

in a very short period of time, you could be making money from those interesting thoughts you store in your head.

Here are two great answers to the "how to make money as a writer" challenge!

How to Make Money as a Writer – Write an Ebook

This is probably the quickest way to get paid, if done effectively. However, there is a bit of a learning curve and if done ineffectively, it might end up costing you a lot of money with little or no reward.

The Pros

If you visit www.clickbank.com you can sign up to sell your ebook for whatever price you decide on. You'll also be able to offer an affiliate commission to anyone who wants to sell your book for you.

Typical commissions are anywhere from 50-75% for the selling party, but remember, you don't have to do any additional work.


If properly set up, you can write the book just once and have it sell for a very long time with no added effort from you.


Topics can range from how to change a tire to how to have a natural child birth.


The sky is the limit...


My recommendation is to pick a niche that you know people would be interested in. To get a few ideas, visit Clickbank to see what's currently being offered and then visit www.googlekeywordtool.com to run a few queries on what people are searching for in your are of expertise.

How to make money as a writer just got easier!


The Cons

While you can write a great book and have affiliates drive traffic to your sales page, there's no guarantee that your sales page will convert.

Good sales page writing or "sales copy" writing is a skill and it can take time to master. This is what I qualified what I said before with "if it's done effectively"


Before writing your sales page, take time to investigate how other offers structure their sales pages. Clickbank won't show you conversion rates but you can take a peek to see how similar offers' creators structure their sales pages.


The best way to do your own sales copy is to start bookmarking and keep of track of any ads that result in you buying.


Sign up for the mailing lists of really high-converting products and see how they structure their emails and sales letters. This will help you in crafting your own.


However, the reality of the matter is that a lot of clickbank offers do not convert because of poorly written sales pages. This is why it's best if you can get started with a system that is "done for you" or D4Y.


Which leads me to my other strategy...

How to Make Money as a Writer – Blog


One of the quickest and easiest answers to how to make money as a writer is to start a
blog and start driving traffic. Once you have traffic, you can post various affiliate offers on your blog via banner ads or links directly in your posts and get paid for referring the traffic (no selling or sales copy skills required).


The Pros

You can blog about various topics that are of interest to you! (just do a little key word research )

Can be INCREDIBLY Profitable by selling affiliate offers (amazon or clickbank, for example)


The Cons

I can take some time to build up a following

It takes consistency

There's NO big red "Easy Button"
