I always love writing. Well, maybe it’s an underestimation. In fact, I never imagine my life without written stories. So long before I found the best platform for bloggers<\/a> and started making guest posting articles, I knew I was destined to be a writer. Now I think it’s the key to my success: I sincerely love my job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But let’s return to my journey. Even at school, I wrote fiction stories. I dreamt that someday my book would be published, and I would become a famous writer like my role model, Joanne Rowling. Of course, I never thought of SEO, marketing, and guest posting<\/a> then, but it was the period of my writing skills formation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Notwithstanding, I didn’t just write for pleasure. I analyzed my mistakes and tried finding new methods to express my thoughts. My determination and constant training made me the best in my class. The base for my future career was settled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The First Steps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2015, I entered William Paterson University and started to study philosophy. You may think that this subject doesn’t have practical application. It’s far from the truth. My studies taught me to think, process information, and make conclusions. We made tons of written assignments. My groupmates hated countless essays, analyses, and library research papers. But I felt in my element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around that time, I thought about making money on my skills. Some of my fellow students had part-time jobs to earn pocket money. I could find something, but I didn’t want to quit writing. And finally, I found a solution: if no one wants to pay for my fiction stories so far, I can write and sell articles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My first attempts were a disaster. I had no idea where to find clients and how to make posts suitable for popular blogs. One time I even lost time for nothing: the client disappeared without paying for the job. When I stopped making sporadic efforts and thought the situation through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I knew I was a good writer and was sure of my skills. But I needed more information. I started to learn how to write articles for effective guest blogging. This strategy brought mind-blowing results. I saw my mistakes and understood that blogging is a serious thing requiring constant training and practice. Moreover, I thought that it could become my future profession.<\/p>\n\n\n
