Writing for a living

Ran across this page:

http://www.buzzle.com/articles/seo-techniques-by-internet-marketing-firms-to-generate-traffic.html

here is a person who writes crummy articles and submits them.

with links back to their site http://inkwelleditorial.com/

then trys to dupe beginners into buying their ebooks.

tries to capture your email and get you on their list to sell you crap in the future.

wow they want $195 bucks for their ebook. I guess you don't have to sell as many that way, and there are a limited amount of suckers out there.

another site with a email captuer popup when you first visit.

http://www.bloggingtips.com/author/inkwelleditorial/

looks like she does not own this site, just submits articles/works there.

(so the following popup is not actually hers)

Once I started doing SEO writing (Fall 2007), I haven't looked back. It's 75-85% of the type of work I do

writes articles like this...

"Despite the fact that the above freelance writer jobs require some research, it is all stuff that can be learned really easily. Many freelance writers shy away from stretching their pool of knowledge though. They tend to stick with what they know. But, those who take it upon themselves to learn something newe and position themselves as experts tend to make more money as freelance writers."

So you have to do some easy research, but most people don't do this.

make sure and throw in "pool of knowledge" a couple times.

I think I can do this.

I would feel a little bad about cheating people out of their money, but hey I need to pay some bills.
