Increased Demand for Good Content Writers

Good content writers are hard to find especially when we are talking of specific niches. For now, every industry in Cameroon and Africa is in the need for writers. The niches are not yet concentrated. Content from Africa is just too small when compared to the interest the world is having on Africa.

There are many green niches in Africa be it legal, business, finance, environment, forestry, fashion, entertainment, tourism and so on. This niches are still not touched to the core. Many people who are even specialized in them don’t come from Africa. It is now time for us Africans to write about us. Let’s not get to know about us from the writings of a foreigner.

Nearly every business can be found online today. Content is what makes modern marketing to be most effective. It is common to find people surf the net before they buy. They need information, answers and insights on what they want to buy. With customers posing questions online everyday, where they get the best answer, they go ahead and buy from them.

This means quality content is what helps businesses to rank high on search engines. Even though content may not guarantee you the ranking in search results, it is very likely that company websites with good content are more likely to get one of the few top spots on search engines.

How Much Can you Make as a Content Writer?

This is a difficult question to answer. Yes, because it depends on one freelancer to the other. Some go for simple writing jobs that pay low, while others go for huge brand contracts. Some make money you can only dream of while some work full time and make a comfortable living.

However, what you will make out of writing will depend on three things:

  • How good you are

  • What you choose to write on

  • How much time are you willing to work

It is often difficult to know what freelance writers earn because most of them prefer to stay mute when it comes to how much they earn. According to Freelancer’s Union and Upwork, in a survey carried out in 2015, 60% of freelance writers said they earned more than what their jobs could pay them and even started earning more when they quit their jobs.
