The beauty about freelance blogging is that you don’t need any qualifications or prior experience to get started.
But this beauty also creates a problem.
Since the barriers to entry are low, there are a lot of writers competing for entry level work. Furthermore, a plethora of cheap writers in the market has led many to undervalue quality writing.
The apparent lack of quality job offerings can be thoroughly disheartening.
But here’s the truth: there are clients that are willing to pay you what you are worth.
I found my first two writing clients via online job boards, and I still work with one of them today on a contract worth in excess of $20,000 per year.
You can do it too; you just need to know where to look and what to look for.
That’s exactly why I have created Paid to Blog Jobs — a unique resource designed to help freelance bloggers identify and secure viable freelance blogging jobs. If you want to find more work, earn what you’re truly worth and even get paid to bolster your blogging portfolio, Paid to Blog Jobs is the solution.
If you’d like to know more, just enter your email address below and click the “Sign Up” button. You’ll get exclusive early access to the beta version of Paid to Blog Jobs before it gets released across the blogosphere.
I’m seriously excited about this resource and I can’t wait to tell you more and ultimately help you succeed as a freelance blogger, so submit your email address above and I’ll be in touch!

Great initiative Tom.
A much needed platform. I just hope you set a minimum limit on the project rate offered by the advertiser.
Problogger Job Board has been great for me, but there’s also a lot of junk over there.
I hope PtB job board will force the PB jobs to increase their standards as well.
Tom Ewer says
Hey Jawad,
Since PtB Jobs will be for beginners and intermediates alike, there will actually be a star rating for each job (from one to three). The rate for a job has a big influence on that star rating. So, for yourself, you would probably be looking at 2/3 star jobs and would discount one star jobs altogether (you would also be able to filter out one star jobs from the listings).
Cheers,
Tom
Sophie Lizard says
Excellent to hear that, Tom — I avoid job sites I can’t filter or search easily. Will you have a system that lets users “save a search” and get email notifications when there’s a match? 🙂
Tom Ewer says
That’s definitely a v2.0 feature. My initial surveys showed that email notifications weren’t that high on people’s list of wants, but I still like the idea!

Glad to see another legit source pop up!

Thanks Williesha!

Hey Tom,
Your blog just keeps getting more and more helpful. Given that I’m just breaking into the freelance writing space, your site is incredibly insightful and actually my favorite site regarding writing advice.
Keep it up my , my friend.
Tom Ewer says
Thanks Steve!

Thanks Corey, appreciate the support!
Bill says
Is this included in your existing paid to blog course as well?
Tom Ewer says
Paid to Blog Jobs is the successor to what is currently the top tier of Paid to Blog. All existing owners of that package will get a free lifetime membership to Paid to Blog Jobs, and that top tier package will disappear from Paid to Blog.
Hope that makes sense 😉

This is such an awesome idea, Tom! Can’t wait to see the beta version.
