Introduction to InternetWriting Markets
The Internet provides unlimited opportunities if you’re a writer, whether
you just have a few hours a week to blog or want a full-time publishing
career or just plan to promote your books or business on the Web. There
is no single way to become successful writing for the Web, so this course
shows you the hundreds of different choices you have, and helps you
set your own goals. In fact, by the end of the course, you’ll have your
very own publishing plan, from the steps to take in developing your
writer’s platform or brand, to the markets that will help you accomplish
your goals. You’ll learn the secrets of how to be successful in publishing
online. That includes things like search skills, website traffic evaluation,
identifying your own expertise and gathering it into a CV, research
strategies, RSS feeds, online interview tips, crowdfunding large projects,
and more. Markets are different on the Internet, so you’ll take an in-depth
look at them too. From paying publications to setting up a passive
income earning stream, you’ll go from the familiar, like online magazines,
to the little known, like freelance marketplaces, along with different types
of online jobs for writers. Every wondered if it would be better to start
a WordPress blog or a Twitter microblog? Whether it’s legal to publish
fan fiction or not? How you can make some extra money if you also take
photos or make videos? This course will answer all your questions about
publishing on the Internet. Course Revised June 2015.
