Online Writing Vs Magazine Writing – Which Is Best?
Many writers often point to magazine writing as being the best of the two. Online writing, they say, is badly paid. And that is certainly right if you pick the wrong jobs.
But magazine writing is a lot harder to get into and find regular work in. Online writing on the other hand is easy. It all depends on whether you want regular work or not.
It could well be that you can write an article for a magazine and get paid several hundred dollars for it. But how many of those articles are you likely to have accepted in a single month? Online work on the other hand is much easier to find – and you can get it regularly too.
The other advantage of online writing is that it covers a multitude of possibilities. Just to give you an idea, here are some of the things you could be writing in the near future if you take this path:
* Website content
* Blog posts
* Articles
* Reviews
* Web pages
* Promotional sales pages
* Product descriptions
And there are many other versions of online writing available for you to tackle as well. It all depends on what you like to do and what you are good at.
And while some of it is badly paid, you can get very good rates as well if you are prepared to work up to them. The better your reputation and skills are as an online writer, the more money you will be able to command. But you must work up to that stage and work at getting some experience and knowledge before you can expect to get those higher rates.
So for my money, online writing will always be better than magazine writing. I make a good living from it, so it works for me.
