Your Step-by-Step Guide on How to Be a Freelance Writer
You’ve decided you want to learn how to be a freelance writer because…
- …you’ve always wanted to be a professional writer since you were a little kid
- …you’re going to throttle your boss if he puts you down one more time
- …you’ve recently lost your job and you need to find a way to make money to live
- …you’ve decided you want a career you’re in full control of, no one telling you what to do
Great! But we bet one thing: You don’t have the faintest clue how to be a freelance writer.
We’ve been there. Every member of the Men with Pens team was alone, a little scared, and completely uncertain when starting out. It’s normal.
When you’re new, you don’t know everything. You have the skills, you have the determination, but breaking into freelance writing can be tough.
We got kicked around and took some hard knocks until we figured out the ropes. Then we got a lot wiser and became a solid, successful business team.
That’s about when we thought, “It doesn’t have to be this way. Learning how to be a freelance writer shouldn’t be so hard. There should be a good resource. A guide. Something that makes it easy for new writers.”
So we wrote this ebook for you, because we don’t want you learn the hard way like we did way back then.
Discover how to be a freelance writer – the easy way.
Write for the Web teaches you about what you need to set yourself up as a freelance writer so you can start your business, pitch for writing jobs, earn clients and succeed – without the hard knocks.

- Why you already have the skills you need to become a professional freelance writer. Yes, even you.
- The bare bones of what you need to get started (we’ll bet you already have them).

- What clients hate. We’ll tell you about what clients hate. And how to be the freelance writer they love.
Writing for the Web was absolutely amazing. Along with Darren Rowse’s, 31 Days to a Better Blog, were by far the two most valuable ebooks I have read this year. – Mike di Muro

Purchased your ebook a few months back…loved it. Everything about it is gorgeous-the look, the layout (especially the boxes of tips at the side) and of course the content
- Linda Kaban
P.S. We know the P.S. section is prime real estate for readers who skim the top, skip the middle and jump down here to fish around for the information you really want to know. So, here it is, a delightful comparison just for you, lovely postscript reader:
Write for the Web costs about the same as a full-price action movie, popcorn, and a soda. For one.
By the time you’re done with the movie, you’ll be all full of fake butter and sticky soda and you’ll be talking excitedly to your friends about how it was so awesome and how the hero’s no one’s slave, man!
You’ll go home and still have no idea how to be a freelance writer. You’ll still feel like a slave to your job.
If you took the money you were going to spend on two hours of junk food and action movie and bought Write for the Web instead, you’d know everything you need to work from home, in your pajamas, and get paid good money for doing something you love.
No one will be your boss. And you’ll be no one’s slave.
