Next Step in Freelance Writing!

Today I made a big step in my Freelance Writing career and wanted to share it with you. I just opened up my own site to direct my clients to. You can see it here. I am insanely excited! Because of this I am going to share some places to find clients.

• WarriorForum. I link to it in my side bar. It is a forum all about internet marketing and making money online. Tons of people there hire writers and it is a great place to find clients. I have found my two highest paying clients there.
• Craigslist. There is a section especially for writing gigs. Checking it in many different towns is a great idea.
• Outsourcing sites. They may not pay as much as the average client but you can find a lot of work on sites like Elance and Odesk.
• Freelance Writing Gigs. Lots of new gigs posted almost everyday! Check this one out for sure.

I hope this helps out some up and coming or experienced freelance writers, and if you maybe aren't interested in writing but need website content, check out my site! 

Update - Textbroker

I sent in my sample for Textbroker.com and got approved. There were so many articles to choose from! Your pay is based on ranking. The average writer will probably be a 2 or 3. A level 3 makes around one cent per word. It isn't amazing but it took me around 15 minutes to write up a 300 word article on Thailand. The better you right the more of a chance you have to rank up as well. The higher the rank, the more jobs and better pay you will receive. I noticed well over 100 offerings for level 2 writers though so even if you are new to writing or out of practice, try out Textbroker.com for some extra money.

On a more personal note, I just purchased the book "31 Days to a Better Blog". I expect it to be a good read. Watch out for a new blog post every day with "31 Days" as a label as part of the book is a blogging exercise for each day. Don't worry, it won't be taking the place of the information I normally post!

Who is Amanda? And what are these adventures?

Hello! My name is Amanda and I'm am 23 years old. I'm sure you guys all know how hard it is to find a good job these days, and even with a good job, be able to afford rent, food, gas, and other bills and that is exactly what turned me to finding ways to make money online, and I mean real money, not scams or filling our surveys. After starting to read about making money online I realized a few things.

• The internet is full of scams for unsuspecting people looking for a way to pay their bills.
• There are tons of very confusing ways people make money.
• There are a lot of very unhelpful people on forums.
• There ARE good ways to make money.
• I CAN do this, and so can you!

I'm learning along the way, and what better way to keep track of what I learn and share it with others than to keep track of my adventures online! Here I will be reviewing sites I try, talking about business ideas I read about, and telling you how I do. I'm always interested in hearing if someone else has an idea or a site they aren't sure about, I'll see what I can figure out about it because I'm always looking for more ideas!
