I am an entry level graphic artist and I.T. Professional and am interested in venturing in the freelance writing industry. I also own a literary, personal and gaming blog where I showcase my writing skills and to which is available upon your request.Currently I am waiting for an outsourcing company to call me for my first employment opportunity but as I've researched freelance writers and programmers gains better income than those professionals working for a company.
Do you give opportunities for freelance writers like me to write for you and get proper compensation from it? If, yes, then what steps should I take to qualify?
Freelance work indeed can generate you more revenue compared to an office work. However, if you can combine your professional work and freelance job, that would be great.
If you are looking for freelance jobs, you can try websites like rentaghostwriter.com, odesk.com, writerbin.com, writerlance.com and others. You can also post a message in the forum on this site with your skills and contact information: forum.philippinesfreelancers.com
Being a blogger gives you an edge in doing freelance work. You can write things broad range topics. But the first concern you need to pay attention is the mode of payment for your work. There are a couple of ways to receive payment from clients. Western Union, Xoom, Moneygram or PayPal are good money transferring companies, so make sure you have access to either one of them.
Remember, Paypal now allows Filipinos to transfer money from their Paypal Account to Union Bank accounts (and other banks) in the Philippines
