Who Should Choose Content Writing?

Students, housewives, professors, and retired people consider content writing as a good way to earn supplementary income. In general, anybody who has a knack for writing and aims to make it big in the field of writing sooner or later should look to get into this field. It provides them the opportunity to sharpen their skills of writing, while at the same time ensuring a good income.
I was someone who was in the dark about opportunities in this field for long. My country was going through recession, and there were hardly any jobs available. Then I came across an advertisement posted by a company which was looking for content writers. I was confident that I would make the cut, so I applied for the job and got selected. And now I’m raking in some moolah, though not much. The initial pay might disillusion anyone. However, if you choose to persist and settle down, you could easily be earning enough to lead a comfortable life.
But then, it also matters what kind of topics you get to write on. Fortunately, there is demand for writing in all areas, be it science, commerce or medicine, to name a few. Content writers can choose the topics that they are comfortable with and accept assignments on that basis. As long as there is unique appeal in the writings, they are bound to attract a large number of visitors.
Amongst content writers there are people who work full time and those who work part time. As mentioned before, people who are looking for some extra money in addition to that from the present job tend to take up content writing on a part time basis. Possible candidates to take this up on a full time basis include students who have nothing to do during their vacations, and housewives who are sitting empty.

Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind... Anyway, let us look at some facts -   Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party. Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself. The circumstances of his death and execution are worth recounting. Although, Bhagat Singh had a...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...

Politics - A profession

Note: This article was originally published on 18 March 2009, 01:10 on this blog and has been thoughtfully revised on 30 January 2026, 12:00 noon to reflect fresh insights and updated context. This post is loosely inspired by the  TATA Tea a d  where this politician goes to ask for votes and a voter asks him for his qualification and work experience the the important 'job' that he is embarking upon. The politician laughs at the voter, asking him what job is the voter referring to. The voter responds, "The job to run the country". Do politicians in other countries view politics as a profession? Or is politics viewed similarly across international boundaries? The best way of course to find out is go to that ever useful tool for professionals - LinkedIn.  Here are the results: Barrack Obama Hillary Clinton Sarah Palin The apparently technologically challenged Senator   John McCain. I also came across many politicians, prime ministers who have LinkedIn profiles. While ...
