Hello there,
I want to dive into a topic that can boost your website, generate short-term income, and contribute to long-term business growth.
It’s ghostwriting.
If you write content on behalf of someone else, you ghostwrite.
It can be a highly profitable strategy if you know how to use it wisely.
As a website owner, I’m regularly approached with guest posting requests—where people offer free content in exchange for a backlink.
Backlinks are crucial for building authority and improving search rankings, so they’re highly sought after.
To meet the demand, I began charging for guest posts.
People are willing to pay anywhere from $200 to $500 for a guest post on a reputable site (solely my experience).
Of course, you’ll want to ensure the content is relevant and the link is not from a spammy source. But overall, it’s a solid opportunity.
If you run a website and aren’t monetizing through guest posts yet, you should probably consider it.
It’s a great way to get rewarded for your hard work.
For content writers—have you ventured into ghostwriting? 🤔
From my experience, you can earn up to $1,000 per ghostwrited article, depending on the client.
Many companies are actively looking for skilled writers because they don’t want to rely on AI-generated content.
I’ve actually built my entire online business, helping companies create high-quality, optimized content for rankings.

Most of this has been through ghost posting, where my name doesn’t appear on the blog post page—especially for well-known SEO companies.
I used to reach $5,000+ with just 2 clients working part-time. But if you have a few years of writing experience and hands-on expertise in a specific niche, working with just 3-4 clients can easily bring in over $10,000 per month!
