In 2010, web writing skills are in high demand, both at the bottom and at the top ends of the market. If you're already a professional web writer, it's time to spread your wings and diversify into new areas.
Let's look at four areas which will be profitable in 2010.
1. Web Content: Always in High Demand
There's money to be made in web content. Several huge companies have set up web media companies and are hungry for content. These companies won't pay you very much, but they'll teach you to write on demand; they make a good training ground for beginning writers.
Don't stay with these jobs for too long however. You can develop bad habits which will ensure that your writing never develops beyond a basic level.
If you're an experienced writer, look at opportunities in creating Private Label Rights (PLR) content. This is developing into a huge field, with many opportunities. Consider hiring other writers to write the PLR. Edit it, advertise it, and develop relationships with customers, and you can make a six-figure income in 2010 without working particularly hard.
2. Email Marketing: Create Full-Blown Campaigns
Spam filters becoming ever more restrictive, and the difficulty of message delivery means that many companies just gave up on email marketing.
That's changing. Despite delivery challenges, email marketing compares favorably in response rates with other forms of web advertising, so there's been a resurgence.
If you're an intermediate web writer, there's the huge opportunity in creating full-blown email marketing campaigns for companies.
3. Blogging: Hop on the Gravy Train
In 2010 blogs are more popular than ever with businesses. Look through your contacts list and find companies haven't yet created a blog, or which aren't making the most of the blog they have. Make proposals to these companies.
If you know how blogging works and can integrate a blog with other forms of social media marketing like Twitter and Facebook, you'll get plenty of clients.
4. Ebooks and Information Products: the Market Is Bigger Than Ever
The huge market for ebooks and information products is healthier than ever in 2010. Ebooks sell in their millions, and if you're an experienced web writer, this is the area in which you can make the most money, and in which you can achieve autonomy.
