How to become a successful freelance writer ( a step by step guide).


Thinking of what the future holds for work in this era, I realised that freelancing has great chances of being the future of work, not just in Nigeria but in every sphere of human endeavor.

Caught in this web, a number of remote workers, especially freelance writers have evolved over the years. While some have already made a name, others are still struggling to be on their feet.

How then do you become a successful freelance writer?


Determine what you want to write about
It's not just about writing. It's about what you write about and how you write. You must reconcile with yourself what area of writing you want to specialize on. You can be a content writer, blogger, project writer etc. What ever yo decide determines what people know you for.

How much does it cost to hire a freelancer on oyerr





It is often conventional for websites and ofcourse businesses both online and offline to decide how much is charged for a product or programme they offer. But that's a different story line when it comes to freelancing. Freelance websites like oyerr.com are meant to be user oriented.

The word freelancing by itself is used to describe the practice of pursuing ones profession without strict affiliation or commitment to anyone. This means that they can work as much or as less as they can, for who ever they choose and at what ever time or season they decide.

This level of decentralization in freelancing is the oyerr culture. I didn't forget to add, Freelancers also decide the amount they are paid for a service. This simply implies that on oyerr.com, the amount it cost you to hire a freelancer for a task is decided by the freelancer himself/herself. For instance, if you want a software developed for you, the programmer that will do the job decides how much he will get from you.

Frankly speaking, as much as oyerr does not decide gig prices, there is also a range for gig prices. Gig prices lies within a certain range except for customized gigs (on special request). This explains the "term micro jobs marketplace" So, your interest as a buyer on oyerr.com is covered as much as that of the freelancer.

Always remember that your security is our priority, our place as the middle man in Nigeria freelance services must not be defeated.
