Is it time to try Online Freelance Niche Writing?

Niche Freelance Writing

If you look at my articles on Associated Content - Marie M. Daniels Contributor Profile
You can see that I am a general freelance writer, I have many different interests and I write about them all. But here on my blog I have only been writing about freelancing or freelance writing tips for the most part.

Which one is more profitable in freelance writing? It can go either way if you are good at marketing yourself then general writing can do well. If you on the other hand don't want to market yourself and prefer to let your freelance article writing stand on their own then Niche writing may be for you.By Niche freelance writing you can have a group of articles that you have written and potential clients will find you on their own and want to contact you for paid writing assignments because you are representing yourself as an authority on the subject they are interested in.
Niche freelance writing means that you only cover one subject, topic or area. Let us use freelance writing as a niche example. You need to brainstorm all possible slants and different ways to present freelance writing and then write articles on them. Some people think that niche writing will limit what you can write about. In some ways niche writing can limit you, but if you are smart about it you can be profitable.

All you need to do is to niche write about different topics in different places. Consider writing about the news or celebrities at Examiner. Then you can take your parenting articles and publish those over at Triond. If you want to write about sports try being a Featured Sports Contributor over on Associated Content. If you niche write this way you are more likely to get people to read several of your articles and they may even bookmark you or subscribe to your articles.

To take freelance niche writing even further you can always use a pseudonym or pen name to write in your different niche areas. The important thing about niche writing is to build your brand which is your name and your niche. Those two things need to be found together all over the place so you can get plenty of higher paid writing jobs.
