I’ve been freelancing online since 2008 and I can say it’s absolutely one of the BEST decisions I’ve ever made in my entire money-making life. Besides the fact that I work on MY time schedule (more or less!), I got to earn on the side maintaining a day job. When it was time for me to go full time, I’ve already established a good portfolio and a higher hourly rate.
But I’m getting ahead of myself. If you’re an absolute newbie to the work-at-home, online freelancing life, you probably want an answer to this one burning question first:
How do I start making money as a freelancer online?
My answer is another equally burning but all-important question:
What are the skills and services that you can sell in exchange for a fee?
There are many things you can do for money online but the main thing is, you need to zero in on one or two skills that you excel in before you start bidding on projects.
