Are You Proud to be a Freelancer?

I am checking my e-mails when I received an update from one of my online account, the Elance. Of course, I checked what the mail was all about. They just delivered news to their subscribers regarding the Elance's new features that every freelancer would find very interesting.

One of the features that catches my attention was their blog where its latest post was presented in infographics. Infographics really encourages me to read. And I'm amazed how the significant and the important information are presented visually and coherently. Thus, it challenges me to try such thing. Well, I tried but too far from perfect... I really need to study to pull it off.

Is It Difficult to Start a Blog?

Writing blogs is one of the most easiest way to do online. There are tons of applications that can be used to do it. They also provide guides to assist you from the very first post until you can manage to do it on your own, from the design to templates, from links to widgets, anything can be done through drag and drop. If you have some knowledge with HTML, CSS, and other scripting languages, that is surely a very huge advantage.

But what makes blogging hard to do?

Income Earned Online

NOTE: This was my second article posted at my WordPress blog in November 2009, more than a month after I've posted my first article entitled "Getting a Job Online". I've decided to transfer it here since I'm updating this site too often.

It's been a month since I've posted my first article to my blog entitled Getting A Job Online. After six months of providing services and still going, I almost made half-a-thousand dollar in total. You might be wondering that the income I earned during the span of six months is too small. But I would say it's big enough, considering that I'm working as a part-time only and the competition among applicants are too high.
