Freelancing is a challenge. Without courage and confidence, one can easily gave in. As I believe many commentators here will agree, passion is indeed the main factor that got us going. What excites me is besides the income, you get to learn and meet so many people.. more benefits go without saying (since you’ve mentioned well on your post above). I just like to wish all Freelance blogger a great success! Keep up the good work !

Technology Blog
You covered so many aspects very well in this post, just one feedback that making money is not so simple. You need to initiate lot many things and continue with that on your blog or share some free stuff on your blog to get recognized. Rest are really cool.
S.Pradeep Kumar
I’m totally agreeing with you Sanjeev !
Many people got recognition by giving free stuffs and services !
Making money is a slow process, but will become steady once it completes some goals ! ๐

A freelancer should also know how to write for search engine and for people. They should also learn how to write for adsense by not writing the solution to what they are writing about so that people can leave their sites through adsense and not through the ‘x’ button at the top of their browser.
S.Pradeep Kumar
Hey really cool tips !
Thanks for sharing them here ! ๐
Welcome to HellBound Bloggers !
Yasinta
Hi Pradeep, Great tips! I am planning to take short course about programming and web design. Well, I do online jobs for full time now for some of the reasons you state above: making money and no fixed hours. What I like best is that I can earn much better than average fresh graduates in my country. Can you call that entrepreneur? Lol..
S.Pradeep Kumar
Glad you are making your country proud Yasinta ! ๐
Being a freelance blogger has so many advantages !
Hope I will become a freelancer soon ! ๐
Himanshu
Wow! nice post, I agree with tech freak, master in one trade is sufficient, if anyone want to become writer then he needn’t go for designing or coding part. Consistency and passion are very necessary terms of blogging.
S.Pradeep Kumar
Yes Himanshu ! ๐
I don’t like working for others for a long term ! ๐
A freelancer can easily manage personal and professional life.
Dude, are you are a freelancer ?
Elvi
I do appreciate the post, but from where do I get ads? Google has banned me for no reason.
S.Pradeep Kumar
Elvia, I know the story ! ๐
But don’t give up, your site has rich content indeed.
Try other alternatives. We can discuss this in Orkut ! ..

I think all the famous writers of the newspapers should have a blog rather than working under them and getting lower salary
what say pradeep???
S.Pradeep Kumar
Yeah yeah.. it will be more easy to interact with people ! ๐
But do you think they will get more exposure than newspaper ?
Sunil Jain
ya dude
They will also get chance to meet many International companies which he/she is unaware.
wat do you think??
S.Pradeep Kumar
Yeah yeah ! ๐
They can get indirect or direct contact with them ! ๐

Good tips, but I would like to say, that be a master in something rather than being the jack of all trades.
Knowing everything is good, but be a genius in one field where you lay ahead of all and there is no competition for you. Always keep gathering knowing and stay up-to-date.
