I’ll have a think about that one, Courtney. It would make a great post.

It’s definitely tempting to get wrapped up in socializing online. Any tips for making a balance between actually working and blogging, twittering etc? I have very limited time lately and feel like my web presence has dropped off the face of the earth. But you’re right…social contacts are necessary when it comes to getting jobs online.

@ Anita: if you have a defined niche, then that’s a good start.

@ Michele: That’s why moms rock! Mine does the same

@ Becca: ‘Being true to yourself and your vision draws people toward you and if what youâ€™re offering is good, and the kind of person you are is remarkable people will start to see you, and talk about you’. I wish I had put it like that

@Carrie: I get a mixture. Many repeat clients and referral clients initially came via one of my promotional efforts.

@ Katherine: if you have a website, then eventually clients may find it. I get a lot of clients from this site, which I write mainly for writers.

It took me the longest time to finally put together a website and now that I did, I am not using it to find work. Too bad – maybe if I had gotten my act together earlier I wouldn’t be disenchanted with writing for clients!

This is an excellent point regarding getting noticed since there are so many writers out there. I have to say that despite trying to do the social networking as much as possible, all of my freelance assignments have come from personal contact and meeting people, so maybe it’s really the combination of the 2 that work the best. I have also read a lot about the importance of video, and I really think that’s the direction people are going in now. I’m amazed at how much web traffic some video bloggers get with very basic videos….
