New Facebook Page Proving Popular

The new Facebook page is drawing comments, views and followers! This is encouraging as it gives us all a chance to help one another, network, forge friendships, swap links, promote our writing and all the other good stuff that an online writing page/community can accomplish.

I liked the idea of a Facebook Group because when users are logged into Facebook and part of a group and a discussion is happening, a box pops up, but--and here's the big BUT, Facebook Groups do not have the power of Facebook Pages. A FB Page, at least right now, stands a better chance of going out virtually and has greater reach.

In my last post, I included links to articles that discuss the crucial differences between Facebook Pages and Groups. It would be great if sometime in the Future, Facebook allowed for that pop-up box for Pages. However, that said, the new Facebook Write and Earn a Living Page is sparking comments and links, as I had hoped it would.

Please pop in and visit us and share your writing insights, links, achievements or whatever writing-related subject you want to discuss. Also, if you have writing questions, the Facebook Page is a good spot to post them to.

Up and onward into 2012!

New Write and Earn a Living Facebook Page

Hello everyone!

I've created a new Facebook page and have synced all, so for all the Facebookers out there, you can now visit the new Write and Earn a Living Facebook Page. When you visit my Wall, you'll see a thumbnail of this blog and/or, if you click on Blog on the left side of the page, you can see all  recent posts with a text snippet, and, if you see a post you are interested in, you can simply click on it to be directed back here to access the full post.

Why a Facebook Page?
Why a Facebook Page? So many of us spend time on Facebook, as a well-needed break from our writing and blogging. I always think of Facebook as a virtual coffee klatch, of sorts--a refreshing change of pace. So for anyone who is already at Facebook and who wants to be able to click right through to this site, without having to type "writeandearnaliving" (I know, it's a long site name) into their browser, they can simply key in "wr" into their Facebook search bar and the page comes right up. From there, it's a simple matter to click through to this blog.

Extra Goodies at Write and Earn a Living Facebook Page.
On my wall, I'm profiling writers' successes, offering quick writing tips, job leads, and encouraging writer interaction, so please stop by and share your thoughts. Why? To illustrate: this morning, a fellow writer, Ken Korczak commented on my wall and left a link to his book review site. Any author who would like an honest review of his/her book will find this information on the wall today. This demonstrates why this type of platform is so convenient and effective. I'll be adding other goodies such as money-making tips and questionnaires.

If you know of anyone who wants to earn income online, please share the new Facebook page with them. And if you like this concept, please press Like at the top of the box to the left.

With a new year ahead, comes "housecleaning" and thoughts as to how to grow my writing business. I've created separate Facebook pages for both Write and Earn a Living and for Bedbug Books.

Are you thinking of creating a Facebook page? Should you create a Page or a Group? What's the difference? 

There are key differences between a Facebook Group and a Facebook Page, which can make a difference to your marketing efforts.

      A Thousand Dollars for One Article . . . How?

      Image: $1000.00 Dollars for One Article
      One thousand dollars for one article . . . you've got to be kidding, right?

      Readers will notice the Article Earnings Ticker over to the right. I'm reaching a milestone and am sharing with others, to illustrate what is possible with online writing.  A thousand dollars for one page of material seems incredible but it can materialize.

      Now, this will most definitely NOT happen with each article you write . . . but, if you stumble upon a hot topic, which continues to attract readers, you stand to earn a significant amount.

      Since, for this particular article, I'm nearing the $1000.00 mark, I thought I would give readers more information about it.
