Bloggers Round Up

Freelance Writing Blogs

If you are a writer, what better way to advertise you skills as a freelance writer, than on a blog where you have the chance of reaching readers and possible clients all over the world.

Nevertheless, as the author of Writing-Resource pointed out a couple of days ago, blogging to promote your writing skills does put you under pressure to produce the best written content possible at all times.  You cannot just throw together any old post and hope it will work. 

Writing-Resource manages this well.  It is a relatively new blog, but it still manages to provide a great deal of useful information for others who want to become a freelance writer.  Well worth a look and a return visit to see how the owners of this blog are getting on later down the line.

However, if you are looking for someone who has been providing some excellent posts on how to be a freelance writer for some time now, I highly recommend The Writers Manifesto.   This blog is filled with useful tips for freelance writers and the author has a friendly and upbeat style which will encourage even the most reticent writers among us.  An excellent  read and well worth bookmarking, not only for freelance writers, but for anyone who enjoys reading a well-written and professional blog. 

The Best Make Money Online Blogs

There are thousands of blogs in the Make Money Online niche.  Most of them are poor and reading them will not help you learn how to make money at all.  Every day, new blogs are 'born', with their writers either saying they 'can tell you the secrets of how to make money online', or that they are 'blogging newbies', who will 'tell you how they are learning to make money' as they go along, but fail miserably.

Nevertheless, there are some helpful blogs in the MMO niche, some of which actually tell you how to make money online.  Their advice is not what everyone wants to read, however, because they will tell you that what it takes is hard work.  No 'get rich quick schemes' here.

The most helpful blogs I have found in the make money online niche are:

Make Money Online - Blogger Unleashed.  He is hard on 'scammers' and some find his direct approach too much.  But if you really want to earn some money, I highly recommend Victor Franqui's blog.

How to Make Money Online For Beginners.  Grizzly is the very best teacher I have ever found for showing people how to make money with Adsense.  He is kind and helpful and commands great respect in the Make Money Online niche.  Well worth checking out.

Courts Internet Marketing School.  Courtney Tuttle is an extremely successful web marketer, with vast experience which he is very willing to share with his blog's readers.  Court's 'Keyword Sniping' post is the best I have read on using keywords correctly to make money.  Another must.

There are other excellent bloggers in the make money online niche, but they are few and far between.  I'll post about these other MMO bloggers very soon.

Finding the blogs and the bloggers

There are millions of bloggers on the internet.  Blogging has opened up a world where almost anyone who has free and unrestricted access to a pc can put their thoughts online. 

Just browsing the web you will discover a host of different cultures, countries, thoughts, information and news (some questionable, but some providing a new and unique look at a situation which you may not have even considered without access to the person's blog).

I am a blogger myself, in a wide range of blogging niches.  I also like to watch other bloggers too.  The problem is, my email box, feed readers and bookmarks are now full to overflowing with the blogs I follow.  So what better place to keep track of the interesting blogging posts I find than by blogging about them myself!

What I intend to do on this blog is provide a quick round up of a blog post, or a series of interrelating blog posts in each entry I make here at Bloggers Round Up and provide links to the original blog, so that anyone interested can have a look at the original blog post for themselves.

So basically, Bloggers Round Up will provide details about various bloggers I have discovered online.  They could be blogging about anything.  It will be anything which takes my fancy.

Anyway, we will see how it goes.  It will be interesting to see how many different types of bloggers I can find!
