Check these 5 ways to Start Your Online Career

I would like dedicate this post to my lovely gf Cindy! Enjoy your new adventure as a blogger! You will succeed in your online career for sure!

#1. Start your Online Career as a Freelancer

Beeing a freelancer is not enough to describe your career, freelancing is a vast field. What you need is a will to dominate a freelancing field.

Freelancing isn’t just a job, but it’s a lifestyle.

Freelancers provide their specific solutions to the customers and get paid for it. They work remotely and normally communicate via Viber, WhatsApp, Skype and Google Hangout.

Being a Freelancer is it worth it?

YES! Freelancers live their lives the way they want to, this is the most beautiful of this field.

These are the most popular freelancing websites: Elance, Freelancer, Upwork, etc.

Are you not convinced?

Mashable published an article long time ago about ‘Freelancing’. They shared the report of the Financial Times which claims that there has been an increase in the number of freelancers by 12% between 2008 to 2015.

The same article inform the growth rate of Elance jobs posting and freelancers which shifted from 200,000 to 300,000 during Q1 of 2014 and Q1 of 2015.

Once you would decide to start with your freelance career, you will need to find the opportunities to grab, not the confirmations that either you should go with this or not.

Smashing Jobs, Mashable Job Board and Krop are some of the popular job boards for hiring freelancers.

#2. Become a Pro-Blogger

Want to follow your online career dream?

For me Blogging is my favorite online career. I’m here because I started blogging years ago and now I came back 😉

One of the best things about blogging is when you start reaching people.

Helping other people is for me the most grateful sensation.

There is a lot of strategies or ways in order to make any blog go off the ground.

From choosing the right hosting between 10,000 providers, learning how to setup the blog, working on the content and doing SEO for your blog.

It can be a lot and a very time consuming process….But, it requires one thing: The Passion to Learn!

If you got the passion, you can do it.

Pro bloggers are those kinds of professional, that full their lives with blogging.

It’s never easy. It won’t be.

Let’s be realistic.

The more you get involved in learning, the more you find out how other bloggers do that.

Turn to a pro blogger. Learn how to make money using your blog.

Once you start digging enough, you will find these four things to get success with your blogging:

1. Choose the Right Audience
2. Deliver the Value
3. Create Helpful and Interesting Content
4. Engage Readers on your Blog and Social Media

It takes time to finally understand these 4 points and most importantly to apply them it will take your further.

Besides to have your own blog, you can try to get some freelance content writing jobs on Problogger Jobs Board and Fiverr.

These Jobs not only will give you some confidence to work in the field, but also make your skills better when you meet the new standards of the clients.

#3. Become an Online Marketer

Digital Marketing is a vast field to digest. Once you start learning and working on it, it becomes a way of life if someone turns to a fulltime digital marketer.

As far as an internet career is concerned, a digital marketer is an individual who markets products using different mediums for selling.

A digital marketer usually promotes a product or service to earn a commission.

The interesting thing is that anyone who sells a product online to earn commission can be an online marketer. Bogglers running an Affiliate Marketing campaign to promote products, would be called an online marketer.

An influencer on the Social media promoting a product through his social media channels, would be considered as a digital marketer.

The intent matters, not the channel.

Companies use different affiliate marketing services like Commission Junction, JVZOO, ShareaSale, and many others to promote products. Digital Marketers join such networks as affiliate marketers or publishers to promote those products and earn a commission.

If you don´t want to make money for others, you can also be your own boss.

Selling courses, Ebooks, Videos, Audios are good options to figure out how to get started.

#4. Offer consultation as a Digital Marketing Expert

Online Marketing is a demanding line. Digital Marketing Experts are supposed to manage, create, and alter the digital advertising, outreach programs, and online marketing campaigns for brands or clients.

Online Marketing doesn’t work around Facebook Ads and Google Adwords only – These are just the mainstream advertising options to be used.

An online marketing expert does what it takes to make any service or product reachable to the desired audience.

Being an online marketer you have to come across every trend and latest technology in the marketing field to get to know more in order to use it in the future.

#5. Step up as an Entrepreneur

One of the interesting thing to pursue with a digital career is making yourself an entrepreneur.

An entrepreneur not only allows you to bring new ideas into life, but also creates an answer for the others.

What is more satisfactory than being your own boss? Choosing the direction of your journey and working in what you really love?

 Professional Fields to Choose

There are many online fields.

Once you start exploring the options, you will realize that fields are limitless. Someone creates an innovative ideas to answer a particular problem, other execute and perform in order to achive results.

For those people who have never being associated with online businesses, then they might need to know where to start.

Look, opportunities never come, they need to be found.

So, start seeking.

Your Turn

I need you to know only one thing.

Are you sure about your entrepreneurial spirit?

Because

I can’t go through your mind. It’s you who need to want it.

I just shared some of the concepts to start thinking.

Next part is yours.
