How to Make $250 Per Day — Or More — Writing Simple Web Articles

How to Make $250 Per Day — Or More — Writing Simple Web Articles



From the article:


What is SEO Writing?

SEO stands for search engine optimization. This niche involves writing content in a particular way to drive traffic to a website and/or blog. It’s quick and easy to do, and it pays handsomely!

As an SEO Article Writer, You Can Start Bringing in Clients in Less than 1 Week — Really!

In this ebook, I detail how I went from 0 clients to 4 paid projects in less than one week writing SEO articles — at $25 per 500-word article. I now charge much more ($85), occasionally billing as much as $100 TO $150 per article. See my current SEO article writing rates on my SEO writing company’s website.

FYI, many of these articles take me 20-45 minutes to write, translating into a salary of $40-$75/hour. Did you know that on the low end of $40/hour, that equates to an annual salary of over $70,000 ($40/hour x 35 hours/week x 52 weeks/year)?

And, I’m not the only one who has experienced this kind of success. Below are case studies and actual testimonials of other freelancer writers who have done the same thing — in the same amount of time. One is a college student who landed 4 clients just a few days after buying the ebook — and went on to quit his job waiting tables soon thereafter.




There are many claims of making good money writing articles specific to Search Engine Optimization, but I have found most of the content mills don't pay much...most of my experiences have found that they pay around one cent per word.  







Here is one of the case studies:

 



SEO Writing Case Study #2: College Student Who Lands 4 SEO Clients in 2 Days

SEO Work Success!!! (Title of the email): Received 4/15/2008

Hi Yuwanda,

I just wanted to share with you my story, briefly. I am currently a 5th year senior in college, and I’ve been running a (failing) copywriting business for the last year, trying to get work from local businesses in the area. I stumbled across your website last week and bought your eBook because it seemed interesting (and was only 10 bucks*). After reading it, I decided to give SEO writing a try.

*This was the introductory price of the ebook.

This afternoon (Monday), I sent out 24 emails to companies requesting work after setting up an SEO page on my website (he listed his website). Within an HOUR, I had one email requesting samples, and a phone call requesting my services! Within twelve hours, I had FOUR companies asking me to write for them!!! (emphasis added) I’m officially a writer now!

And, because I serve tables for a living, replacing my income won’t be that hard! By the end of this week, I should know whether or not I can go freelance FULL TIME! (emphasis added) And I just wanted to send you an emphatic “thank you” for providing me the blueprint for this. The guy that called me today said I was “in the right profession” right now. I have a profession! And I don’t graduate for another month!

I am terribly thankful that this is working, and I can’t wait to see what other work I can dig up this week. Thank you so much for providing direction for my freelance writing! If there’s any way I can repay you, let me know!

One Man Logging Operations Links: A Lone Wolf in the Woods

TimberWest Magazine November/December 2014 -A Lone Wolf in the Woods
Despite the large scale mechanization of logging, some individuals are still
working solo in the woods.  I have included some articles on men that log alone and keep their costs low so they don't have to be making payments on the million dollar equipment that has become the norm with most logging companies.
In Minnesota, the economic crash made many logging outfits fold and close their doors for good. There is still plenty of logging going on in this state, but it is so large scale that it is almost impossible to start a logging outfit without having some deep pockets.
I have included these links to show that it still may be possible to log without huge overhead, but as for how much profits will be involved, I have no idea.
Enjoy the articles:

Students head back to hands-on high school

Students head back to hands-on high school: The traditional, academic college route is not for everyone. This really came through when Astoria High School Principal Lynn Jackson was talking about graduation rates — specifically about why males tend to graduate less and drop out at an exponentially higher rate than females in local high

Nebraska Greenhouse Growing Citrus with Geothermal and Minnesota Greenhouse Grower

Walpini Underground Greenhouse

From the website:http://www.greenhouseinthesnow.com/index.html
  We have created a climate that is frost free that many plants thrive in by tapping the unlimited earth temperature of 52° at the 8' depth. Our only energy used for heat is a 10" wheel blower that circulates air through 7  6" tubes that have a total length of 1050'. This is a closed very air tight unit and the same air is circulated continually.  During the winter we use very little water as there is no humidity lost through evaporation.  Russ Finch


Barry's Cherries in Staples, Minnesota
Cherry tomatoes grow on a large trellis in one of Barry’s Cherries high tunnels. They are planted in the visible white bags hung from the frame and are watered one minute per hour during the day and one minute per three hours during the night. Any excess water flows to the green peppers below.

Kill Trap




Kill Trap
I stepped in a kill trap today. The bruise is swollen with my blood.The Fall creeps into Minnesota during the middle of September. I started by dying the traps in boiled oak leaves, and setting becomes a daily activity.  The traps have been laid out to rust long before their dying. Every swamp and popple forest is filled with potential places to set. My hands ache from the cold steel, but the warm, fleeting breezy days offer some relief. The bridge is out, and I coat my hands in a thin sheen of grease to make one more set.

GMC Cabover Astro Trucking Stories and Pictures

My friend's father, Art used to drive a truck like the GMC Astro pictured above.  He told me a great story about hauling a load of Redwood picnic tables from Winnipeg, Manitoba down to Chicago, IL.  He said when they were taking the tables off the flatbed with the forklift, the forklift driver dropped one of the tables, and said they couldn't take it, and would have to just throw it away, so Art, not wanting to deadhead back, said he would take it, and it still was out sitting in his yard to this day.   He gave up the trucking lifestyle years ago, but Art still had plenty of stories to share about his life out on the road in a cabover Astro.

Here are some more pictures of GMC Astros:
