Write blog posts

You can give writers on Niabusiness a post title, an outline and a general idea of what you want the final result (content piece) to look like.

If you can get them access to the product you want them to review, that could be an added bonus (this in fact is easier to do with digital products than physical products).

Why hire a freelance blogger / writer for your blog?

  1. To take the pressure off writing blog posts in tough times for example when a loved one is sick – and you have to scale back on the time you usually spend blogging to take care of them.
  2. To get more time to create paid products (a physical product, book, ebook or online course).
  3. To spend more time building relationships with other bloggers and experts in your niche.
  4. To fill your content calendar before you take a long break from blogging – to go on holiday, or because of various family commitments or to just focus more on sales and product refinement if you are a small business owner with an online-only business or a business that exists (and serves people) both online and offline.
  5. To ramp up content production. This works really well for example when monetizing your blog with display ads (such as Google AdSense, Mediavine, AdThrive among others) and affiliate links (as an Amazon Associate, Viglinks user or by using other affiliate networks such as ShareASale, Jumia Kenya, CJ, LinkShare or JVZoo). If more content means more eyeballs (pageviews and clicks) and you don’t have enough time in your day to publish as many articles as you want, it makes perfect sense to enlist the help of freelancers to flood your blog with lots of quality content.
  6. To start your search for a content manager or editor. It makes a lot of sense hiring a writer and seeing if they’d be willing to take up more responsibilities while you focus on growing your other sites or businesses. Or launching new ones.
  7. To focus on other areas / platforms to build an audience – for example podcasting, creating videos on YouTube or even by hosting events / seminars online or offline.
