Earn Money Writing Travel Articles

By Stirlyn • Jan 26th, 2008 • Category: Earn Money Ideas

Following on from my post about ways to earn money, I read a great post about travel writing from Sharon Hurley-Hall over at get paid to write online, in which she explains how to write a travel article without actually visiting the place about which you are writing.

Travel writing is such a large and well paying market that you can use your computer as a way to earn extra money, by writing about popular destinations. If you are looking for a way to earn extra cash, especially now when things are a little tight, this something that you can do. Using your computer to earn money, not only by writing, but by building web pages, designing graphics or even just doing research for people who will pay you is worth checking out.

Earn Money Writing Reviews

Think about it, how much time do you spend on your favourite websites? Perhaps you spend a lot of time on your favourite social network like Myspace or Facebook or even Flickr. You essentially become an ‘expert’ about that site and without knowing you become an expert ‘user’.

Using your expert knowledge to write reviews that will help other not so savvy users to navigate and get to know the website(s) you know so well is a way to earn extra money online.

Starting a niche blog is one way to put that expert knowledge to good use. You don’t have to be an expert at writing either. Using sites like getpaidtowriteonline.com, you can learn how to do it and do it well. Why not earn money doing something you like rather than something you don’t.

    Hi Stirlyn, thanks for the plug. I think we develop a lot of expertise without knowing it. One of the series on my blog basically tells others what I learned about SEO, something I didn’t know much about till three years ago. It’s good to take stock every so often and realize what new skills and knowledge we can use.

    Hi Stirlyn. It is indeed a promising option to get extra cash by writing travel articles on destination spots even if one is not actually traveling to that area.

    One can still attach images to your articles if there pictures one might find about it in the internet.
