Okay so, the last few days, our man André has been posting and asking about starting his first blog. And I wish more people would post questions like he asks as people that ask questions are people that get answers and answers beget knowledge and knowledge is power! 
Anyway, his posts made me think about what it might take to start and run your own freelance blog today. And not just any old blog but an actual successful and popular and thriving blog! Especially when in order to really stand out from the crowd and be unique today does take some doing. The competition can be fierce for a freelance blogger and it can take a lot of work and heavy lifting on your behalf on your own!
But it can also be fun at the same time! And of course, if it all pays off in the long run be very richly rewarding as well! Whether you're starting your own freelance blog or you're running a niche blog on something very specific, your main intention will be to make money with that blog so you don't want to put in a lot of work and get nothing back from your work, time and troubles!
So if you're starting off in blogging for the first time, here's some newbie blogging tips you would do well to learn to be a Successful Freelance Blogger.

Thanks Cristian. Well, it's a freelance blog. So you blog about the services you can do. Whether it's a writing service or a link building service or some other SEO/SMO service. Then you put ways in which people can buy that service. What you could do is just link to your service on here. And provide a discount code or something or all the people that buy it through that blog. Or you could just collect payment by PayPal. But I think it would be better to link to the actual service on SEOClerks that way, you'll probably pick up a few affiliates along the way. There are many many service on here you can write about and then link to. I've been thinking about doing the same for one of my SEOClerks sites but I don't want to just slap the service description on it as it is and would have to rewrite it as that is much better so you're not using duplicate content on your site. Google doesn't punish you for using duplicate content on your site that's taken from another site (it's only when you use that content in more than one location on the same site). But it doesn't rank it as high as the original either.
But yeah, that would be the way to do it. And to post killer informative articles and collect subscribers to email and possibly place some ads like Adsense or something as well. Many ways to earn from the site mate! :)

[size=100]I am a freelance blogger. Or … [i]at least I like to think so.[/i] :) [/size]
[size=100]If you define being successful as continuing to persist after several failures and still not even being sure if when people visit your site they actually think it is a “real blog”, then I am a successful freelance blogger. If you define being successful as publishing a monetized blog that consistently generates income, then I should at least get points for trying. :D[/size]

I have many different websites in different niches, but i have to admit that i am not really good blogger, i mean in post writing. Not that i am lazy, but sometime i underestimate my self to write some real advices, sometime not enough time to do all that, etc etc... Probably because i am involved in so may different niches, so, for long time i am thinking of creating one large blog with multi niche, or even to create multi site network, but it is also large project which would need a lot of work to do all of that and most of the time i am leaving it for tomorrow, next week, next month....
Also i was confused, as we discussed here on community discussions, if i should start some fresh blog on new domain name, or re-work something on old domain which already have good authority and known brand, so i could just increase number of different categories for other niches... To be honest, i am still confused with that
Anyway, this tips are great, not just for beginners, but also for us, regular freelancers / bloggers, so we can remind our selves "how to do" and get back to right direction.
Thanks Oh Mike, this is one awesome post! Really. I would pin it on top for few months probably if i could :D Real advice, tips and motivation, so i hope Andre will like it too.

With so much experience i should know better than that :) Anyway, this tips are great, not just for beginners, but also for us, regular freelancers / bloggers, so we can remind our selves "how to do" and get back to right direction.
