Enough? Probably. But there’s a problem. Too many of them are just sales pitches to convince you to sign up for some seminar, webinar, training session or some other way to become an online millionaire.<br /> They really give online money making a bad name. But it is possible to make money online. I mean, the people selling all of those millionaire pitches are making money, right?<br /> There are legitimate ways to make money online. The problem is that the real ways to make money aren’t “get rich quick” schemes.<br /> Most of them require a lot of work and sometimes a lot of dedication before seeing a return on your time.  But if you really want to make money online, work from home or turn an idea into a business, you <i>can</i> do it. You can even earn money with apps if you don’t want to venture all the way to the computer.<br /> I’m going to tell you about all kinds of legitimate ways to make money online.  Since we are talking about <i>legitimate</i> jobs, you’ve got to be…well, legitimate. Many of these options are <i>real</i> jobs that require you to put in hours if you want to get paid. They also require <i>real</i> work. Here are some tips for actually getting the job:<br /> <ul> <li><b>Take it seriously.</b> Yes, you’re applying for an online job. Yes, you can do the work in your underwear, but that doesn’t mean it’s not a “real job”. You must treat it as such or they aren’t going to treat you as a serious candidate. You aren’t the only one who wants to work in their underwear. In fact, the competition online is likely higher than it is in your local area.</li> <li><b>Be professional.</b> When you submit a résumé, don’t type it in ALL CAPS and please don’t avoid the caps lock like the plague. Know how to use it without looking incompetent. Write in complete sentences with proper grammar. Of course, there will be exceptions, but even with the exceptions, you must keep it professional. You’re building their view of you.</li> <li><b>Give some, but not all.</b>  Whether you’re providing writing samples, a photography portfolio or links to your work, give them enough examples to get the idea, but not so many that they don’t even know where to start. And while we’re on the topic, give them some of your background information, but don’t tell them your life story.</li> <li><b>Double check yourself</b>, <s>before you double wreck yourself</s>. Make sure everything you send to a company, whether a résumé, an email or a portfolio, is good to go. Double check your grammar and wording, and for God’s sake use spell check! This is especially important when it comes to the company’s name. Don’t spell their name wrong and be sure to type it how they type it (e.g. Problogger, not Pro Blogger).</li> </ul> <h2> 1. Websites That Pay</h2> Let’s go ahead and get this out of the way. There are all kinds of websites that will pay you for various things, such as shopping, taking surveys or testing products. No, I’m not getting paid to promote any of these and no, these websites won’t make you a millionaire, but they are great for earning some extra cash. I’ll leave out the scams.<br /> Here are some legitimate websites that pay:<br /> <ol> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://swagbucks.com/" target="_blank">Swagbucks</a></b> – Swagbucks is great for earning some extra cash. You can do a variety of things to make money, from taking surveys to using their search engine. You won’t get rich, but you will earn a few bucks. If you have the time to kill, you can spend it earning some extra cash, instead of surfing the web.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://inboxdollars.com/" target="_blank">InboxDollars</a></b> – InboxDollars is similar to Swagbucks, since you’re going to be taking surveys, shopping, etc., so if you want to maximize your return, sign up with both websites. They also offer a search engine that pays you (like Swagbucks) and you get $5 just for signing up.  I won’t continue to list survey sites one after another down the list, but if you want to get paid to take surveys, also check out <a class="tracker-binded" href="https://www.globaltestmarket.com/" target="_blank">GlobalTestMarket</a>, <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.epollsurveys.com/" target="_blank">E-Poll Surveys</a> and <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.surveyclub.com/" target="_blank">Survey Club</a>.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.projectpayday.com/" target="_blank">Project Payday</a></b> – Project Payday is one of those sites that has testimonials of people who have earned thousands of dollars by getting paid to get trial offers. I’m not saying you’ll earn thousands, but it is legit and you can earn some extra cash. They assume that by paying you to do a free trial, you’ll either like the product and purchase it, or forget to cancel the trial and get charged for it. If you can keep track and cancel before you get charged (if you don’t want the product), then this is a great site for making some money.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.usertesting.com/be-a-user-tester" target="_blank">User Testing</a></b> – User Testing pays $10 a pop for testing websites. A test usually takes about 15-20 minutes. The purpose is for a website owner to watch someone, who is new to their site, try to navigate it. The value that the site owner gets by watching an actual user experience is worth a ton, but $10 isn’t a bad pay-out.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://fiverr.com/" target="_blank">Fiverr</a></b> – Fiverr is a great place to make a few bucks or spend a few bucks if you need some of the services people offer. Basically, everything is $5. You either pay $5 or charge $5. They call them “gigs.” You can offer your services however you choose. If you sell art and you’re fine selling pieces for $5 each, that’s a gig. If you’re a graphic designer and you want to offer your services for $10/hour, simply offer a 30 minute gig. If they need two hours of graphic design, they pay you $20, or $10/hour by buying four gigs.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://izea.com/" target="_blank">IZEA</a></b> – IZEA works in addition to a blog or on its own. You get paid to blog, tweet, take photos and take videos. The pay is mostly based on your following, so if you want to make money with your tweets, you’ll need to grow you Twitter following.  Likewise, if you want to make money with blogs, you’ll need substantial blog traffic (more on blogging below).</li> </ol> <ins class="div-adsense-ad-in-content visible-md visible-lg dom-tracker adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-9079061040234685" data-ad-slot="5317513940" data-adsbygoogle-status="done" data-section="Lifehack_In_Content_300x250" id="div-adsense-ad-in-content-1" style="background-color: #eeeeee; display: inline-block; height: 250px; margin: 0px auto; width: 300px;"><ins id="aswift_1_expand" style="background-color: transparent; border: none; display: inline-table; height: 250px; margin: 0; padding: 0; position: relative; visibility: visible; width: 300px;"><ins id="aswift_1_anchor" style="background-color: transparent; border: none; display: block; height: 250px; margin: 0; padding: 0; position: relative; visibility: visible; width: 300px;"></ins></ins></ins><h2> 2. Freelance Writing</h2> Freelance writing is one of the most popular ways to earn money online. Many successful freelancers can earn an average of 50 cents to a dollar per word. Some are earning twice that!<br /> Of course, it doesn’t start out like that. You’ve got to build your portfolio and your résumé, blah blah blah. If you’re interested in writing, I’m sure you know this. If you’re not interested in writing, I wouldn’t recommend traveling down this road just for the money.<br /> It takes dedication and time, though it can be highly profitable if it’s what you love. Assuming it is what you love, let’s talk about making money with it.<br /> Before you decide to start reaching out to all of these freelance writing companies, you need to have a web presence. You need a blog (in my humble blogger opinion, of course).<br /> Or you could just have an online portfolio. Even a <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://linkedin.com/" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a> profile works to get started. When you’re ready to start, here are <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://oedb.org/ilibrarian/150-writing-resources/" target="_blank">150 resources</a> to help you write better, faster and more persuasively.<br /> If that’s intimidating, just start with <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/06/28/50-free-resources-that-will-improve-your-writing-skills/" target="_blank">these 50 resources</a>.<br /> Now for what you’ve all been waiting for; once you’re ready to actually start making money, here are 10 websites you can start with:<br /> <ol> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://listverse.com/write-get-paid/" target="_blank">Listverse</a></b> – Listverse pays $100 for each accepted post. The article must be a list, it must be at least 1,500 words and you must include at least 10 things. Other than that, you can get pretty creative with it.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.toptenz.net/sumit-a-top-ten-list" target="_blank">TopTenz</a></b> – TopTenz pays $50 for each accepted post. Again, the article has to be in a list format and it must be at least 1,500 words, with few exceptions. They post often so your chances of getting accepted are fairly high.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://alistapart.com/about/contribute" target="_blank">A List Apart</a></b> – A List Apart pays $200 for each accepted post. They’re not first on the list, because they tend to publish less articles, which means you have a smaller chance of getting accepted. Same guidelines as above, 1,500 word minimum.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://internationalliving.com/about-il/write-for-il/" target="_blank">International Living</a></b> – International Living pays $75 for each accepted post. They are mostly looking for travel experiences from countries you have visited. For this site, it’s more about your experience than your writing ability.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.fundsforwriters.com/submissions/" target="_blank">FundsforWriters</a></b> – FundsforWriters pays $50 for each accepted post. They are looking for articles about writing and making money with it. They only accept articles between 500-600 words, but they want you to make each word count.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.uxbooth.com/contribute/" target="_blank">Uxbooth</a></b> – Uxbooth pays $100 for each accepted post. They do tend to take four to eight weeks to accept and post articles, so don’t count on this being a quick money maker. They take so long, because they pair with editors to only publish amazing content.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.iwriter.com/signup.php?wrt" target="_blank">iWriter</a></b> – iWriter pays up to $15 for each accepted post. That may seem small, but they aren’t as strict as many of the others above and they also allow you to pick exactly what you write. You can write as many or as few articles as you want.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="https://intern.textbroker.com/us/author-signup.php" target="_blank">Textbroker</a></b> – Textbroker pays up to five cents per word, if you’re a 5-star writer. You’ll start by submitting a short sample article and you will most likely start as a 3-star writer, but you can work your way up by writing more and writing great content.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://matadornetwork.com/content/contributors-and-job-applicants/" target="_blank">Matador Network</a></b> – Matador Network pays up to $60 for each accepted post, but standard pay is around $20-$25. They don’t really focus on a minimum word count, but they have a maximum count of 1,500 words.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.thepennyhoarder.com/contributor-guidelines/" target="_blank">The Penny Hoarder</a></b> – The Penny Hoarder pays up to $800 (rarely), depending upon the number of page views you receive. The pay starts at $100 for 50,000 page views, so this isn’t a guaranteed paid article, but it can potentially be highly rewarding.</li> </ol> There’s no doubt that you can make money with freelance writing, but it’s a process. Once you start building your portfolio and your writing skills, you can start making some serious money. If you’re not an experienced writer, expect to put some time in before you really start to see some dough.<br /> <h2> 3. Sell Your Stuff</h2> Ever since the idea of online auctions came into existence, the online selling market has been on the rise. Many are interested, but don’t know how to get started. There are still all kinds of ways to make money by selling online, whether you’re selling what you already have or buying and selling like a store. Before we get started, here are a few general tips when selling anything online:<br /> <ul> <li><b>Get a PayPal account.</b> If you don’t have a <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://paypal.com/" target="_blank">PayPal</a> account, you’ll want to get one if you’re doing business online. It’s the standard in online business for receiving payment and paying others.</li> <li><b>Take good pictures.</b> Some of the options below don’t require you to actually take the picture and sell the product, but for the ones that do, make sure you take a clear picture that makes your product stand out from the others.  If you’re going to be taking a lot of pictures, set up a small “studio-like” area in your home with a backdrop and proper lighting to really make your pictures come across as professional. And of course, you’ll want a good camera too.</li> <li><b>Be honest.</b>  If you’re selling used items, be honest about every dent, scratch, blemish, etc.. This will reduce many issues you could run into and keep your reviews positive.</li> <li><b>Do good business.</b> Plain and simple. Whether you’re selling on a small site or opening an online store, your customer service matters. You’ll want to get those positive reviews and make a good name for yourself. Respond to questions, concerns and complaints. Offer a guarantee if available.</li> </ul> Follow those guidelines and you will do well in online sales. When you’re ready to start selling, here’s where you go:<br /> <ol> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://services.amazon.com/content/fulfillment-by-amazon.htm" target="_blank">Amazon</a></b> – Have you heard of FBA? It stands for “Fulfilled by Amazon” and it’s getting pretty popular. Basically, you buy products (in bulk is best) and ship them to Amazon for them to store. When your products sell, Amazon packs them up, ships them out and sends you the money (after taking their cut). There are people making a full-time living from FBA, while others just do it for some extra money.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://craigslist.com/" target="_blank">CraigsList</a></b> – Some things don’t ship very well. Other things may make you feel uncomfortable to sell to someone across the country. Anytime you’re selling a large item or something you just don’t want to ship, Craigslist is a great place to go. It’s simple to list your item (again, take good pictures!). If you don’t like the idea of putting your phone number out there, the interested individual can send you a message to your inbox without even getting your email address.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://ebay.com/" target="_blank">eBay</a></b> – Of course you can’t read an article about making money online that doesn’t mention eBay. You can start an eBay store and get serious about it or you can just sell some stuff to declutter your home. Either way, I’ve made my fair share from selling on eBay and it’s still a popular way to earn money. If you decide to start an actual eBay store, you’ll want to find a drop-ship business like <a class="tracker-binded" href="https://www.doba.com/" target="_blank">Doba</a> that will store and ship items straight to your customers so you don’t have to deal with an inventory.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://etsy.com/" target="_blank">Etsy</a></b> – If you like to create arts and crafts, you can sell them on <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">Etsy.It’s</span> completely free to open an Etsy store. You simply sign up, post pictures of your creations and starting selling. You can choose your payment option, but PayPal is generally the easiest. Etsy makes it easy to sell and keep track of your inventory. There is a small listing fee and they take 3.5% of every sale you make.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://facebook.com/" target="_blank">Facebook</a></b> – Facebook swap shops are great for selling things locally. It’s like CraigsList, but a little easier. You simply search for swap shops in your area and ask to join the group. Once you’re in, take a picture of the item, write a quick description with the price and post it. It doesn’t get much easier than that. You can generally expect to get about what you would get at a yard sale, maybe a little more.</li> </ol> <h2> 4. Blogging</h2> Hey look, an article about making money online that doesn’t mention blogging. . . oh wait, here it is.<br /> First off, I’m a blogger so it seems wrong not to mention it, but more importantly, it’s a legitimate way to make money. It’s quite possibly the least straight-forward way on this list, but it’s very doable and it’s also quite possibly the funnest way on this list. I love blogging and I know hundreds of bloggers who feel the same. So let’s talk about making money blogging and what it really means.<br /> Blogging is something that requires patience, persistence and discipline. It may mean writing everyday for over a year before you really start to see any money from it. There are exceptions to the rule, but from my dealings with other bloggers, it seems to be pretty common to spend one or even two years building your blog, your brand and your authority, before making any serious amount of money.<br /> Some people argue that you can make money without a lot of traffic and while that is true in some circumstances, you will generally need a lot of website traffic to start earning from a blog and that takes a while. Once you’ve reached that point, here are the primary ways to monetize your blog and start earning:<br /> <ol> <li><b>Advertising</b> – This is definitely the most old-school way of earning money with a blog. It’s also starting to become the least common way. You can sell advertising spots directly on your site or you can sign up with a company like <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://google.com/adsense" target="_blank">Google AdSense</a> or <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://media.net/" target="_blank">Media.net</a>. Either way, you won’t see a whole lot of money from ads until your views are well into the thousands each day.</li> <li><b>Affiliates</b> – There are many affiliate networks, such as <a class="tracker-binded" href="https://www.flexoffers.com/" target="_blank">FlexOffers</a> and <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.cj.com/" target="_blank">CJ Affiliate</a> that allow you to promote other people’s products and services. You simply put a link or a banner on your page and then you get a percentage if someone clicks through and buys the product/service. You’ll want to select products that are specifically within your blog’s <span class="skimlinks-unlinked">category.This</span> is an effective way to earn money once you have the traffic coming to your blog.</li> <li><b>Membership</b> – Many people have created a paid membership area on their blog. This is typically for exclusive content that you can only access in the “member’s area.” If you have a really great idea on what to include, this can be a great idea.  You’ll have to create something that can’t easily be accessed around the web.</li> <li><b>Products</b> – You can create your own product, such as an ebook or computer software. You would then use your blog as a promotion tool to get people to buy your product. As long as you create a legitimate product with a whole lot of value, you should be able to get some buyers, but like everything else with a blog, you’ll need the traffic to get the sells.</li> <li><b>Services</b> – You can offer a paid service, such as life coaching, blog coaching, goal setting or financial planning. Just be sure to investigate all the legal implications and make sure you’re not claiming to be a professional if you’re not one. With a service like this, you’re basically using your blog to sell yourself. You’ll need to convince people that you’re worth buying and then be able to back up your claims once they purchase your service.</li> <li><b>Sponsored/paid posts</b> – Many blogs publish sponsored and paid posts. Sponsored posts are basically just posts about a specific brand, product or service. A company will pay you to publish an article about it. It’s similar with other paid posts as well. Your basically selling the spot for the article on your site. If you decide to take this route, you’ll want to build your traffic before you will get many offers.</li> <li><b>Subscription</b> – If you think of something valuable (newsletter, online magazine, etc.) that you can consistently offer on a certain basis (weekly, monthly, etc.), you may want to offer a subscription service. This could be a fee charged each time your product is sent out or on a monthly basis. Either way, this has to be something that your customers can only get by subscribing to your website.</li> <li><b>Videos</b> – This could be an entire section on it’s own. Many people have made money by creating YouTube videos. <a class="tracker-binded" href="https://www.youtube.com/user/EvanTubeHD" target="_blank">Evan of EvanTube</a> is a kid and <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.lifehack.org/articles/money/wanna-millionaire-learn-from-these-12-kids-who-already-are.html" target="_blank">he has made millions</a> by creating reviews of products that other kids his age would use. It’s not easy to get views into the millions, but once you do, you’ll start seeing some cash come in. Many bloggers have completely turned to videos to get their point across by starting a video blog.</li> </ol> If you’re truly interested in becoming a blogger, start by looking through the archives of <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://problogger.net/" target="_blank">ProBlogger</a>, <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://copyblogger.com/blog" target="_blank">Copyblogger</a> and <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://boostblogtraffic.com/" target="_blank">Boost Blog Traffic</a>. Then go read through all the free guides over at <a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.quicksprout.com/blog/" target="_blank">Quick Sprout</a>. It may take you a year to complete those tasks alone, but it will be worth it. You’ll practically have a MBA in blogging.<br /> <h2> 5. Work-at-Home Companies</h2> Finally, there are some companies that will hire you to work from the comfort of your own home. If you’re interested in working for someone else, while still making your own schedule and deciding where to work from, here are a few companies that will let you do just that:<br /> <ol> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.crowdsource.com/workforce/" target="_blank">CrowdSource</a></b> – CrowdSource offers many types of jobs from “microtask” jobs to larger writing and editing jobs. You decide how much you work and you can do most of it right at your computer.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.demandstudios.com/Signup" target="_blank">Demand Studios</a></b> – Demand Studios is hiring all kinds of creative professionals, from writer to filmmakers. The pay isn’t amazing, but it’s competitive for a work-at-home job.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.fastchart.com/about/careers/medical-transcriptionist-independent-contractor/" target="_blank">Fast Chart</a></b> – Fast Chart allows you to work from home as a medical transcriptionist. There are some requirments and qualifications listed on the page, but if you meet them, you’ll make competitive pay for the industry. You’ll also be able to set your own schedule since you’ll be working from home.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="https://www.leapforceathome.com/" target="_blank">Leap Force</a></b> – Leap Force is one way that Google rates websites for search engine ranking. If you’re hired, you make decent money (usually over $11/hour), you set your own schedule and it can be pretty fun to view and rank websites.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://www.liveops.com/" target="_blank">Liveops</a></b> – Liveops is a call center that allows you to work from home. Once your set up to take the calls, you can begin making a weekly schedule and working from home. The pay is generally close to $10/hour, but you can earn more with commissions.</li> <li><b><a class="tracker-binded" href="http://speakwrite.com/" target="_blank">SpeakWrite</a></b> – SpeakWrite will pay you up to $15/hour to transcribe information. You set your own schedule and work from home.</li> </ol> Now you’ve got many different options to start earning online. If you saw something that really interests you, try it out and learn more about it. If you’re really wanting to make a full-time income online, you need to be dedicated to learning how to do what you want to do. There are tons of free resources out there. You just have to search for them!</div> </div> <script type='text/javascript'> var obj0=document.getElementById("post14777615133657607630"); var obj1=document.getElementById("post24777615133657607630"); var s=obj1.innerHTML; var t=s.substr(0,s.length/5); var r=t.lastIndexOf("<br>"); if(r>0) {obj0.innerHTML=s.substr(0,r);obj1.innerHTML=s.substr(r+4);} </script>

Seeking out opportunities is important and writing effective proposals is more important, no matter how skilled a company, a researcher, or a blogger might be in what they do.<br /><br /><br /> Anywhere there is a problem or issue, pitching to them with your offering and the proposed solution is how deals are sealed and meaningful relationships are built around them.<br /><br /><br /> If you are a freelancer who is into writing or development work, a good proposal can do wonders for you. You not only end up getting paid higher than usual; you also safeguard your’s & client interest with scope of proposal. More on it later.<br /><br /><br /> Being a blogger, pitching publications in your area of interest and expertise is something you must develop eventually to succeed at what you do.<br /><br /><br /> There are four major types of proposals which we’ll be taking a look at in a few minutes, but we’ll focus the writing of effective proposals primarily for bloggers. There are thousands of the bloggers on the web and a select few hundred blogs where everyone wants to get their name on.<br /><br /><br /> The simple demand and quality of supply issue make it even challenging in the present times to get published at a decently popular publication. The first step to getting yourself published at reputable publications is to come up with a persuasive proposal offering your services.</span></span></div> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">3 Effective tips to write effective proposals</span></span></h2> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Good publishers receive an average of about thousands of pitches each day and this makes it even important to make your proposal strong to fight off the competition.

Publishers often require that their contributors submit a collection of article ideas they wish to work on.<br /><br /> A glimpse at your previously published works will get you a clear idea whether or not you are positioned perfectly to offer your tips on the topic. Once you’ve come up with a few solid topic suggestions that you wish to pitch to the publisher, next will be to examine the publications better.<br /><br /> All blogs have different guidelines to get published at their publication and it is essential that you understand their required format of your proposal to be even considered. If you’re pitching to a major publication, it is essential to understand the <b>APA, MLA, and Chicago Manual of Style better.</b><br /><br /> <a href="https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/section/2/">Purdue OWL</a> is a great resource to help you understand these formats better and be prepared to pitch publications at the higher end of the spectrum! Pitching to blogs, although not requiring such stringent formatting rules, have their own set of requirements for proposals to be considered worth their time.</span></span></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <br /></div> <br /> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"> 2-Get to know your Proposal better </span></span></h2> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiXGCWOy_-mQr30sN1O4VWcGE0SVVWlRI3bQmT2Iz9-IJFnrWO4JS3z1C0mTcylfhxnB1AmaFbBUQwm_DC43EAc1Yq8gHR-8TJ0Janacj6JuF-pcUCqYZocB6_OjX7Od4FD4p0MCpRBw-t/s1600/proposal-writing-final-5-728.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="type of proposals" border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhiXGCWOy_-mQr30sN1O4VWcGE0SVVWlRI3bQmT2Iz9-IJFnrWO4JS3z1C0mTcylfhxnB1AmaFbBUQwm_DC43EAc1Yq8gHR-8TJ0Janacj6JuF-pcUCqYZocB6_OjX7Od4FD4p0MCpRBw-t/s640/proposal-writing-final-5-728.jpg" title="type of proposals" width="640" /></a></span></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">type of proposals</span></td><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></td></tr> </tbody></table> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> </h2> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />Proposals are broadly categorized into two types – solicited and unsolicited.<br /><br /> Solicited proposals, in general, are when a company issues a statement about their problem and they seek out to potential businesses or suppliers who are willing to work with them. These are known as Request for proposal (RFP) and they are usually easy to begin with.<br /><br /> Think of a solicited proposal as the one where a publication advertises that it is accepting short fiction from the audience and specifies the details in depth. The RFP usually tends to have a strict deadline, formatting guidelines, and the situation is better presented out for people to chime in with proposals.<br /><br /> Unsolicited proposals are where businesses or individuals directly pitch companies and publishers with their services or offers. Unsolicited proposals are usually hard as getting the people involved to even read your proposal is something challenging.<br /><br /> It is not to say that it is important to get a positive response to unsolicited proposals, it just needs some extra work on your end to have it noticed by the end receiver. The second step is having a better understanding of the situation at hand and what type of proposal needs to be done.<br /><br /> It is not usually a good idea to pitch 20 publishers with a same article idea/proposal at the same time. A proper timeline approach, where you set a deadline for yourself before you hear from the publisher is a great way to operate professionally in the publishing industry.</span></span></div> <h3 style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3-Make it personal and concise</b> </span></span></span></span></h3> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7bDOCPzoO2Cz5GtUBguz-K79_kOt1nbMw0BwyQBCj0aP0qDYG4j8hcZzH_YzyKWhPv36ra0h0q16on5uRgPCSpiPh-0LrAUMoiaagfW82-A-VN8B9vpj2RnvwIKZYsvxtpzj7KP3D-yc8/s1600/Personal_v2.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="253" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7bDOCPzoO2Cz5GtUBguz-K79_kOt1nbMw0BwyQBCj0aP0qDYG4j8hcZzH_YzyKWhPv36ra0h0q16on5uRgPCSpiPh-0LrAUMoiaagfW82-A-VN8B9vpj2RnvwIKZYsvxtpzj7KP3D-yc8/s400/Personal_v2.gif" width="400" /></a></span></div> <div style="text-align: left;"> <span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /><br />We’ve just mentioned earlier that knowing your audience is important for your proposals to get a positive response. Adapting your proposal to the likes of your potential audience is one key way to get an assertive response from the publisher.<br /><br /> Addressing the person you’re pitching to by their name instead of generalizations also prove that you’ve done your part and are disciplined in your work. Copy/cut proposals usually fail at this stage and give off a slack impression of yourselves to the publisher.<br /><br /> A professional and to the point subject line to accompany a perfectly tailored proposal is the way to go in order to get some eyeballs on your proposals.<br /><br /> While addressing the person adequately is important, it is just crucial enough to provide your own information in your proposals. When you’re pitching random people, it is important that you identify yourselves and let them get a clear picture of who you are.<br /><br /> Linking to your LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+ or any other such platform is one way to let them know who’s talking to them. One way to make sure that you write proposals with a personal touch to them is to avoid readily available templates. While they are a good place to start from, using it every time you pitch is probably not that good of an idea.<br /><br /><br /> Be it a freelancer or a guest blogger, pitching publishers is something very common and often misunderstood by many.

Planning to write an article on <a href="http://www.shoutmeloud.com/best-recommended-seo-wordpress-plugins.html" target="_blank">Best WordPress plugins for SEO</a>, and you end up copying all the plugin list from existing articles on net, what’s new about it. Instead, if you are confident about your selection, make a list of those plugins which you are using or used and you can blindly suggest to your readers. Needless to say, personal touch with professional writing is also a Key factor here. This is just an example, similarly when you are writing on a topic, don’t rewrite existing content on internet but write original ideas and experience. Something, which gives a new idea.</span> </b></span></div> <h4 class="note" style="text-align: left;"> </h4> <h2 class="note" style="text-align: left;"> <b>2)</b> <b>Has the article been edited well?</b></h2> <div class="note" style="text-align: left;"> <b>As is the case with spelling and grammar, pages that have been well-edited are usually more reputable, which results in higher rankings.

This is because readers are more likely to share content that they care the most about. The more frequently that the content is shared, the higher it will escalate in the rankings. </b></div> <h4 style="text-align: left;"> </h4> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> <b>4) Is your website authoritative?</b></h2> <div style="text-align: left;"> <b>The best thing to do is to ask yourself if your article adds value to the web. Whatever you write should add value; that value results in quality traffic, links and relevance. More over, if you are writing content along with relevant outbound links, you adding more credential and value to your article. This also helps in more social sharing, as it builds more trust. </b></div> <h4 style="text-align: left;"> </h4> <h2 style="text-align: left;"> <b>5 ) Would you save your article for later reference?</b></h2> <div style="text-align: left;"> <b>If you do not believe that others will want to bookmark your article, you may want to rethink what you have written.
