This month there’s a double helping of expert advice, Ten Top Tips to help you generate new ideas, inspiring success stories and useful websites.

USEFUL SITES FOR WRITERS

As there are plenty of websites for you to look through in the two expert advice articles featured this month I have decided to only give you one website to look at here, but it’s a really good one!


www.simonseeks.com

This is a great site for budding travel writers plus you can earn a share of the profits. All you need to do is register, add a profile and away you go. You are now free to upload as many travel guides as you like. All they ask is that the guides are “intelligently structured and well-written, the spelling must be checked” and “they must include recommendations for a hotel or other accommodation.” It’s as simple as that. You can track how many views your guide is getting, what the average reader rating is and how much you’ve earned from people clicking through advertisements or using the recommendations in your guide. The possibilities for guides are endless. For example, if you live in a popular holiday destination you could write several different reviews such as a guide for families with young children, those with teenagers, those who are on a tight budget and so on.


Remember, if you run a website that you think may be of use to our readers, let me know. If I like it, I’ll publish a link to it giving you a free plug. What could be better than that?
