How to earn money as a freelance writer ? What’s it like to be a freelance writer ?
As a freelance writer, you can choose what and when you write, giving you the freedom to enjoy life the way you like it working from home.
A lot freelancers work with clients they never see, and only conduct business with them using the Internet, an online portfolio is an important tool for success.
You probably know by now, that your writing skills can make you some cool cash if you know how to use it.
Believe it or not, people are willing to pay you lots of money to write for them, especially online businesses and publications.
In fact, the demand for writers has never been greater, with thousands of mom-and-pop business looking to outsource their writing tasks.
That’s why I was intrigued when I first came across a guide called “Freelance Superstar” by Monika Mundell and Gobala Krishnan.
According to the site, it’s a “complete guide to get started with freelance writing“, so it’s probably most suited to newbies who want to get in the game with a bang.
In case you don’t know who the creators are, let me give you a “brief” history.
According to their website:
“In 2005 Gobala quit the rat race, fired his boss, and decided to be a full-time writer.
Working just two hours a day from his home, Gobala soon discovered that he could expand his writing career into information products, and have since produced multiple best-selling ebooks, guides and systems.
Monika, who started off as a part-time writer, soon landed enough high paying writing jobs to kiss her boss goodbye too.
She has written for high-profile blogs and continues to expand her writing career like a maniac on steroids.”
The product’s main guide is a well-written PDF guide that reveals key components and tips on becoming a freelance writer:
1 – How to get started with freelance writing
2 – What to expect from freelance writing
3 – Online writing job sites exposed
4 – How to attract high-paying clients
5 – Regular writing vs. SEO writing
6 – Regular writing vs copywriting
7 – How to enhance your language and writing skills
8 – How to get regular clients and stable income
9 – How to get paid as a freelance writer
.. And much more.
Besides the main guide, Gobala and Monika also provide you with valuable supporting tools and documents.
These are indeed quite useful and will help you save lots of time.
You’ll also get:
1 – Email templates you can use to solicit for clients
2 – Sample writing agreements you can copy and use
3 – Gorgeous “Portfolio” WordPress themes
4 – Step-by-step blogging video tutorials
In terms of quality and value for money, this is definitely one of the best products I’ve seen.
Sure, there are lots of free blog tips and forum posts that you can refer to, but you probably realize by now that the more of those you read the further away you get from actually doing anything.
Most forum posts are by dodgy characters who probably haven’t landed a paying client in years.
Some are just too sell-contradicting to be of any real value.
That’s why I give “Freelance Superstar” the thumbs up for producing a well-written, clear and straightforward guide that anyone can understand.
I still believe that a determined freelance writer can make a living writing – on the internet, in print or with a combination of writing opportunities.
In this quick-start guide, he’ll show you exactly how to become a successful freelance writer — operating your own profitable and flexible writing business where you’re in charge of your income, your hours, and your lifestyle.
They’ve included everything you need to get started as a freelance writer.

Yes, we can earn money from writing. If you can combine writing and SEO you can even make more money. In Malaysia, writing is not as popular as in US or UK. However, it is increasingly popular right now.
That’s right Sarah..
