How to Make Money Online as a Freelance Blogger (in 2021)

What Is Freelance Blogging?

Freelance blogging keeps growing in popularity and is basically about being a writer for companies that don’t have the time or skills (in-house) to do it themselves.

As a freelance blogger, you can get paid to write blog posts for clients. So when a client requests your services, you do your research, write the blog post, and submit it to the client for review. And if no edits are needed, you’ll get paid.

Besides, freelance bloggers can also offer additional services like keyword research, photo editing and designing featured images, updating the client’s website, and more.

Offering additional services can help you get more clients since not all business owners know how to do this, nor have time. You can then increase your freelance rate as well.

How to Start as a Freelance Blogger?

To begin, making money as a freelance blogger requires the following:

  • Knowledge — Blog about something you are an expert in or are interested in learning.
  • Passion — The more passionate you are about the topic, the easier it is to write about it. Especially when there’s delayed gratification, and you likely won’t make much money initially.
  • Persistence — Blogging is an investment in time and effort. It won’t pay off overnight, which is why you need to stay persistent with it and have faith it’ll be worth the effort.

If you feel you’ve got these things nailed down, starting as a freelance blogger doesn’t have to be a complicated process. So, here’s what you need to do:

1. Choose a Niche or Passion

The first thing you need to do is decide the topic you want to write about. Choosing a niche that you’ve knowledge in will help you present yourself as an expert in your field. This will attract more clients who want to work with you since they know you’ll deliver high-quality content.

Being an expert in the field will not only help you create high-quality content but also monetize your blogging.

However, don’t forget to check if the niche is profitable and if businesses are willing to pay for content regarding the topic.

2. Create Your Own Blog or Website

When you’ve decided on a niche, you need to create your own blog or website. Even when first starting out and you don’t have any writing samples to offer, having a blog shows clients that you’ve got the skills you need to do the job. In addition, it also makes it easier for potential clients to find you online.

How Much Does a Freelance Blogger Make?

It also depends on the niche you’re active in. For example, a technical writer can charge a higher fee than someone blogging about food since it demands more research and knowledge.

That said, many beginners charge $25 – $50 per blog post. However, an experienced freelance blogger can charge as much as $500 per post or more.
