How To Write for Websites, Ezines, and Newsletters
by Kyle Looby

The following is an excerpt from Kyle Looby's e-book How To Write for Websites, Ezines, and Newsletters.

Chapter 2
Where to find websites, ezines and newsletters


Finding online writing opportunities takes a little more searching than finding print markets. Print guides are readily available at the library, bookstore, and online, but you have to know where to look to find exclusive listings of online writing jobs.

There are essentially five ways to find potential jobs and markets for websites, ezines and newsletters. The first is to check out job boards.

These are job listings that can be found on ezines especially for writers. You can also find such job and market listings on general job search websites. This is also true for classified ads, which can be found on various writing websites. To access potential writing opportunities for websites, ezine and newsletters, check out the job boards and classified ads on these ezines and websites for writers:

Another way to access writing opportunities is to sign up for newsletters, mailing lists, and discussion groups for writers. Most of these have job listings, as well as other valuable information for writers. Most of the ezines and sites for writers above have newsletters, and here are some other good newsletters for freelancers:

The Write Moves: thewritemoves-subscribe@topica.com 

Writemarkets: http://www.egroups.com/group/writemarkets

Workforwriters: http://www.egroups.com/group/workforwriters 

The Write List: http://www.egroups.com/group/Write_List

Working writers: http://www.egroups.com/group/WorkingWriters 

Write at Home: http://www.egroups.com/group/WriteAtHome 

The fourth way to find ezines and newsletters to write for is to check out your favorite websites and newsletters. Think about your hobbies and passions. What interests you? I bet there are a number of ezines, newsletters, and websites out there dedicated to your interests. Surf the web for your favorite sites, and chances are, they accept submissions. They'll likely have guidelines listed, too, to help you get started. And don't forget your favorite newsletters. There are lists for every subject imaginable. Subscribe, post, and pretty soon, you'll be ready to contribute an article or two. Where do you find ezines?
