It seems that a lot of people ask me for recommendations of freelance sites where they stand a chance of finding some writing work. Not sure why they think I’m expert, but I like to be helpful, so I did a bit of research that hopefully will make things a little easier.

It’s a good idea to check these sites every day if you’re on the look out for new projects.


These sites are updated daily.


·Sun Oasis
Check for online jobs regionally, nationally, or globally. Has listings for journalists, freelance writers, mag writers, etc.

·Online Writing Jobs
Has different categories of listed work - high paying, low paying, no paying. Lists collaboration opportunities, and scams. Sometimes list book & ghostwriting opps. Both jobs & contract work can be found here.

·Aboutfreelancewriting.com
This site is a compilation of sorts. Many of the listings here come from Craigslist, some from Online Writing Jobs, some from the other writing sites out there. The only jobs that appear in the list are for writing, either jobs or assignments.

·Freelance Portfolios
This is a site that wants you to sign up. It is free, and allows you to not only peruse the markets, but also post a portfolio for clients to read. You can then communicate with clients through the website. Helpful articles too.

·Net Temps
A free job board for temp & full-time jobs. The day of this posting, there were several ads for technical writers. This site has won awards, including Fortune 10's & Forbes Best of Web. Worth checking out!

That’s all I’m putting in today’s blog.I hope these links help you open a few doors of opportunity.
