As many of my friends wishing to be freelance content writers were asking me about how I was able to do projects and get payments, I thought posting these points in my blog could also benefit a multitude of other novice freelance content writers.
These are tips for freelance content writers to successfully complete their projects. When it comes to freelance content writing, you are exposed to a world of uncertainty. However, you can safeguard yourself from those who exploit you by following the procedures which standard companies do.
Things to consider while bidding for freelance content writing jobs
• Do not compete with those who provide services at unbelievable rates. Only two possibilities are with this kind of offers. Either they are amateurs or cheats.
• Accepting anything below your hourly rate should be only done only after careful analysis.
• Before you start the projects get clear instructions from your employer in writing. If your offshore employer is not clear ask him for sample contents and urls.
• While you can happily provide content for your well known clients and get paid, you should always consider an advance payment of 30–50% of the project cost, when you take up jobs from the unknown client.
• Check the standards of the clients’ website to produce content as per the existing standards. Else your content will be of too high standards for the audience.
• As soon as you complete your projects you got through bidding sites, do post a review about your client, and you should be honest in your review so that you enable your brethren to choose good employers.
• Be punctual in completing the projects and do ask for a review from your employer so that you get a positive image which can boost your chances of winning bids.
