What Do You Need to Do to Make Money Online Through Writing?
A person who starts writing content think
of ways of making money online and come across the following questions:
Q1.
Which will be the best resource for me to make money online through writing?
Q2. What
should I write about to attract readers towards my writing platform?
Q3.
How can I find the right readers (my target audience)?
Q4.
What should I do to engage readers with my writing platform?
Q5. In how many ways can I earn a good sum of money online?
Bloggers succeeding in answering the preceding questions
successfully have made a lot of money and earned a high return for their efforts. Today, top bloggers are earning $100,000 per month and you will also be
included in the list of top bloggers if you follow the following 5 simple steps
(steps that will answer the preceding questions one by one)
correctly:
Step 1:
“The Best Resource Is a Blogging Platform”
People interested in making money online
through writing will need a resource to start writing. The best writing
resource for a writer is a blogging platform. “WordPress” and “Blogger” are
the most popular blogging platforms to blog for money online. You should own
the “WordPress” or “Blogger” website, and for doing this, you will need a
custom domain name and web hosting space.
You will have to choose and register a custom
domain name for a year or two (you will also need to pay for the renewal of the
domain name once the registration time period expires). You will also pay for
an amount of web hosting space per month with yearly contracts for storing your files. Names of a few
domain name registrars and web hosting companies are Namecheap, GoDaddy, and 1&1.
Notes:
*A good custom domain name is one that is short,
memorable, without hyphens, and relevant to a website.
*A good web host is one that has a web host
uptime not less than 99.5%, allows adding multiple domains, offers refunds for
not providing the desired value, and has an easy-to-use hosting control panel.

2: “Write What Readers Want to Read”
You will not only be writing to make money online but also for readers landing on your blog searching for the topic of their
interests. The interesting and original information can mesmerize readers. It
does not mean you should adopt only persuasive and explanatory styles for
writing. Readers may be interested in reading a funny story, biography,
controversial topic, and so on. In-Depth internet research can help you find
out what readers exactly want to read.

Step 3: “Content-Type and Keywords Determine the Target Audience”
This is an important step. If you do not follow this step correctly, you will ruin your dream of making a large sum of money online through
writing. Content-type will determine your target audience. For example, if you
are writing about fashion trends, your target audience will be the readers who
follow fashion. Typing content keywords online will land you towards the
relevant and popular blogs where you can leave comments with a link to your
site, create relevant guest posts (if the website permits guest post creation)
with a backlink to your website, and answer readers’ questions (if they have
asked) with the reference to your written post if it’s relevant to their
queries.

Step 4:
“Relentlessly Respond, Offer Something of Value, and Engage Readers”
If you see the target audience (the right readers)
are coming to your website and commenting on your written posts, you should
respond to their comments. If readers have queries for you, you should answer
their queries intelligently to win their trust. You should offer something new
and interesting to readers in your content to build engagement of readers with
your written posts. Practically speaking: responding to readers, inspiring readers, and answering readers’ questions develop a good relationship between readers
and writers.
