Writing is not a small business, it is a huge industry

If you write every day, why don't you make it as a profession? There are many people who become rich just by writing books, articles or novels. I know it is not easy but it is possible. Writing is my habit and I have made money from it. I believe in today's internet era where millions of writers emerge from every corner of the world.


Actually more writer mean more opportunity. People read every day. In the past, only small number of newspaper or magazine companies that can occupy the market. Now, if you know how to write a good blog or website, you can make your online magazine with the number of readers far exceed the number of readers in conventional magazines.


More people go to the internet for reading various articles, but more magazines and newspapers also launch website to complement their pulp and paper channels. So, internet is not a threat to them. It is seen as opportunity to reach wider readers.


When writers see that magazines such as Hearst Group can get up to 2 million internet subscribers, they will see that this business is a big industry.


Revenue from online magazine or newspaper is obtained from advertising and paid website. Subscribers pay monthly or annual subscription the magazine charges.


If you are interested in entering writing business, you can start by sending your articles to one of the magazines in your town or city. If they publish it, you'll receive some money. Believe, once your article gets publication, you'll be addicted to this good habit. written by Charles Roring in Manokwari, Indonesia
