Anne,

Thank you so much for all the content on this site. It is so helpful as a beginner in the field. I’ve been blogging for about a year now and it has been one of my most valuable assets as a freelancer.

Nice tips. I am learning to write quality article, not for freelancing actually, for my own blog. But, I do freelancing in other category(web development). May be after learning well, I may also start jobs on writing article besides writing on my own blog

Heidi, thanks so much. I’m glad I make sense to you.

Re the name of a blog… you can’t be sure it will work, not without spending a ton on market research, and even then it might blow up. So pick the one that makes your heart sing, then write and promote well and it will work… it takes lots of posts and lots of marketing to get a blog to become a place people return to again and again.

Another approach is to define your ideal reader and name based on that. Remember too you’ve got both the title and a subtitle… so if you’re down to two, maybe you can use both.

Let us know what you decide and give us a link when you can!

You are an inspiration to me and I want you to know that out of all the people I follow, you are the one I can understand best and the one that motivates me.
I’m developing a blog for my new freelance writing venture. Your tips have been like my daily cup of joe. Now I have a question. How do I make sure that I have a name for the blog that will ‘work’? I have two ideas, but am unsure of either.
I want to write about words. They are my passion. I found that in my private blog I was often commenting on words and phrases. The aspect of how the choice of words affect all relationships was the underlying theme of 20 years of self-employment int the area of training so I’m confident that I won’t tire of that topic. Again, thank you for being there. Keep inspiring!
