Writing Jobs Anyone Can Do: Write Articles
There’s never been a better time to be a writer. Your potential income is unlimited. This is simply because as the recession bites, businesses are forced to make alterations to the way they market their products.
I’m amazed at the number of small businesses which are moving the bulk of their operations online, as well as by the number of small businesses which are starting up with the sole aim of selling products online — even a year ago this would’ve been looked on as a risky strategy.
With businesses placing such a high emphasis on selling online, it gives great opportunities for writers. You’re in high demand. Even beginning writers can get writing jobs writing articles.
Can YOU write Web articles?
If you have any writing skills at all, you can write articles. Web articles are very different from articles written for print publications, and they’re much easier to write.
If you read Web articles, you’ll discover that they have certain attributes. They’re easy to read, they’re relatively short when compared to print articles, and they contain links.
So if you’re in the same position as a lot of people, and need to earn extra money, consider writing web articles.

Web publishing: one Squidoo account or many?
If you’re a Sell Your Writing Online NOW (SYWON) subscriber, you know that I recommend that you get comfortable with Squidoo, and use it in your writing campaigns.
I don’t use Squidoo as much as I should, and that’s only because I don’t have enough time; I always seem to be working on one of my sites, or creating a new product.
One of the debating points in the Squidoo community is: should you have one account, or many?
I’m in the one account camp, chiefly because I don’t have hundreds of lenses. If you do get around 200 or more lenses, I can see where additional accounts would make sense.
Captain Squid, in “When Are Multiple Squidoo Accounts Useful?” says:
…you are seriously diluting a lot of the power you can get from having a unified account.
From the dashboard, lens labels are spectacular for handling different sections of lenses or groups. I have labels for both verticals or themes as well as by aff. network or marketing strategy. Multiple accounts make tracking this stuff a total pain.
I agree. Unless you spend all your time in Squidoo, there’s no point in having more than one account. However, to each his/ her own. It may work for you.
Writing mini sites: using your writing skills to make money

I’ve got several hundred sites and I know writers who have 1000 sites. This perhaps seems incredible. If you’re a new writer, or you’re not used to Web writing, you’re thinking “why would anybody want that many sites”?
