Advice on marketing/advertising myself as a freelancer

6 pointsby TaffeyLewisover 11 years ago
Hey everyone, I&#x27;m a freelance writer (not a coder) mainly write about advertising technology, digital security and occasionally about non tech subjects.<p>Basically I wanted to see if any of you who are also freelancers (in whichever digital services category) have any advice on where I could promote myself further at low cost, for more well paying work. Currently charging what amounts to $50 - 70 per hour of work and work is reasonable, but I&#x27;m always open for more.<p>Any suggestions from any of you folks here?

Hi Taffey, Its all about making your presence felt. have a showcase and web presence that is significantly attractive and distinguishing from the rest. take reviews, iterate ... feedback ... iterate Then start working on SEO and other things.<p>Its all about Creativity, Content, Consistency and Persistence All the best for the future.

Thanks for the advice guys, Baliw, i&#x27;ll be sending you a message shortly.<p>My impression is that a lot of the advice which can be applied to freelance coders (but not all) can also be used across the board as applied to writers, so I&#x27;ve periodically been looking through the Ask forum here for tips when I can find them.
