Yes! You Can Make Money Online By Offering Your Blogging Services to Companies

I have yet no specific experience on this topic, however, I did gain some backgrounds on blogging in behalf of small-time businesses. Here, I would share my tips and tricks of being hired as a company blogger and also the things you need to know of while working under an "online boss". Don't get to stressed up, I had fun actually on my time doing something close to this.

Blogging Outside Your Blog

It's obvious that majority of the bloggers make money online by just using adsense and waiting for checks. While it may sound weird especially if you are new to this prospect, blogging for other blogs are very much popular in today's scenario. Because blog is considered as a tool for creating buzz, for marketing and even for seo benefits, more and more marketeers and especially online companies are getting interested.

The Process of Getting Hired

There are virtually two ways for you to make this possible. First, you can either scour for the jobs themselves. There are numerous job boards available on the internet. I highly recommend the ProBlogger Job Board as you can ensure that the companies offering are legitimate and will most likely be beneficial even for your own blogging experience.

Tips on Scouring for a Blogging Job

• ♦ Look at blogger job boards
• ♦ Look at webmasters and even ordinary forums, a lot of those participating here are usually webmasters of small internet business owners.
• ♦ Set up a Google Alert for the term "looking for bloggers/writers"
• ♦ Post your services and get the company's attention yourself

Being Directly Offered By a Job

And yes, it happens. Some companies are rather picky and would like to look for the bloggers themselves. There are cases when a certain company would like to set up a blog and he usual goal is not just to hire one but a group of bloggers to create a team blog.

Of course, the answer to this cases is to set up yourself as an authority in your niche. If you look at BloggingTips Dot Com for example, you would have noted that the team blog who runs it are actually authority figures in blogging tips even before being hired to become a part of the team blog.

To optimize your possibility of being directly hired by companies, here are the following tips:

♦ Hint on your contact or about page that you are interested to also write on other blogs.
♦ Establish yourself as an authority blogger in your niche
♦ Perfect your English skills
♦ Be professional at all costs!

Creating the Winning Bio

Most companies, or that is, even the small time would even demand for a bio from you. It would include your experiences on your blog, the length of your blogging and certain skills that you specialize in.

Here are the tips in creating the he winning blogger bio:

♦ Give full, accurate details on your skills. Lousy written blogging backgrounds seldom seldom get the hired letter.
♦ List all the experiences you've had! Businessmen are human, the longer your achievements is, the more interested they become.
♦ Write about your capacity to do the job!
♦ Give extra incentives for being hired, say you would also make the posts seo optimized (plus comment moderation)
♦ Don't be too pushy about the salary. Wait first for the company to offer and work on your desired priced
♦ Be polite anytime, all the time

If you have made it pass the application process,

Congratulations! You Are Now Hired!

However, upon starting your work as a company blogger, do remember to provide satisfaction guarantee to the company. Always write great posts(tutorial), better yet, you can mass produce your content. Be prompt in submitting works and always keep in mind their instructions. Once you are attuned to their wishes, it'll be much easier to adjust.

Companies value the level of professionalism. They expect great outputs from you since that's what you promised to them in the first place. Thinking about it, the greater your performance are, the more chances you'll get a raise! Plus it's just blogging, something anyone can do within their very homes.

Just keep up the good work and you'll be fine. Of course, you shouldn't forget about your original blog too :)
