Travel Blogging: Paid Writing Gigs for World-Wandering Freelancers

Travel Blogging: Paid Writing Gigs for World-Wandering Freelancers

You think travel blogging went down the plughole back in January 2020 when Covid-19 made governments start cancelling flights and quarantining travellers?

Nope.

Because guess what happens when people can’t travel as much as they’d like?

They want to read about travelling so that they can dream and imagine and plan their next trip. 😉

And guess what happens when people are finally allowed to travel wherever they please? Yep, they’ll want to read about it then, too.

So travel blogging is a pretty good opportunity right now for any writer with halfway decent experiences to share!

Before we get into this, lemme answer the question a lot of writers ask me:

Is Travel Blogging Paid Well Enough to Cover All Your Expenses?

I dunno… how expensive are you?

I mean, if you normally live on a shoestring and sleep in a hammock, then I expect a few good travel blogging gigs a month would cover your living costs, your business costs, AND your random buy-it-because-you-like-it costs.

If you’re used to sleeping in the fanciest of hotels and being concierged to within an inch of your life, then… maybe? If that’s the experience you bring to the table, then you could probably get hired by luxury travel brands that can afford to keep you in penthouse suites.

On average, most of the travel blogging gigs I see pay about $200 per post, although there are some that pay $1,000 or more for the right piece. (And if your article gets accepted by a travel magazine for publication in print as well as online, you could earn $1+ per word.) It’s up to you to decide how many posts you can create, which sites to pitch them to, and how much you need to earn!

And now for the other big question:

If you’re here reading this, you’re probably a writer… or at least an aspiring one. 

How cool would it be to get paid to write about writing? And yes, you really can find high-paying freelance writing jobs on this subject. 

I bet you know a thing or two (or a few hundred) about writing. How you got your first client, what you do when your brain just won’t spit out words, what you do when you have a TON of writing to do plus life, or how you get so in-demand you need a waitlist.

You can get paid to write articles for online magazines and blogs about the craft of writing, the business of writing, and even the mental challenges of being a writer.

Sports Writing Jobs: A Big List of Sport & Leisure Sites That Pay Writers

Sports Writing Jobs: A Big List of Sport & Leisure Sites That Pay Writers

What if you could get paid to write about your favorite sport, hobby, or whatever it is you like to do in your free time (besides sleeping, snacking, and binge-watching series)?

Seriously. Even that one weird hobby you can’t stop talking about and some of your friends think you’re a little too obsessed with… Check and see if it’s on our list!

Pro tip: If expensive gear is involved, chances are you could get paid very well to write about it. If you want to get paid to write about a topic, someone else has to make money selling products on said topic.

You’ll find a few exceptions to that rule. But especially with leisure activities and fun things to do in your free time, follow the money if you want to turn your writing into more than a hobby.
