These assignments are so not content writing. But they earn me some good money, some quick money. The amount of money that I make writing content for say, 5 projects, I can make the same amount with just one project of designing a website. You might wonder then why the hell do I write content instead of making websites?<\/p>\n<p>I used to make websites a few years ago and in fact only those people approach me for web designing and development work who somehow know that I used to make websites. I wrapped up my web design and development business because my soul was not into it; I wanted to write. That is why I started providing <a title=\"content writing services\" href=\"http:\/\/credible-content.com\/\">content writing services<\/a> to various clients. Back then I needed to heavily advertise using AdWords because very few people were looking for content writers and online copywriters. I don\u2019t know why I never stopped learning the new web design and development techniques. So when people started creating CSS based layouts I also learned how to do that and when people started incorporating Ajax functionalities into their applications I also used them while working for one of my permanent clients. Maybe that is the reason; I have always been in touch with web design and development and I never work on a project half-heartedly even though my primary business is content writing.<\/p>\n<p>There is another reason why I often get this work. When new clients approach me many times they are just starting a new website. So they ask me by any chance do I know a good web designer. I often reply that I don\u2019t know any web designer but there are a few websites that I have designed and if they like those designs and if they are ready to pay what I am asking for maybe I can give it a try. This is how everything begins.<\/p>\n<p>Especially these days I try to do as much work as I can because one is never sure of the prevalent economic conditions. Although I don\u2019t prefer designing websites if they get me some good money in little time and I have to do something that I already know it becomes difficult for me to refuse. Does this mean I am ignoring my core business? I don\u2019t know, maybe. On second thought, I think earning money and creating a backup is also essential for my content writing business. With enough money I don\u2019t have to take up \u201cdesperate projects\u201d and I can be choosy. I am still thinking about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Of late \u2013 for the past 5 odd months \u2013 I have been taking assignments that I haven\u2019t mentioned on this website, for instance designing and developing websites and setting&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,9,13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-146","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-about-work","category-copywriting-and-content-writing-tips","category-general-ruminations"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Taking up assignments that are not in my field - Credible Content Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/credible-content.com\/blog\/taking-up-assignments-that-are-not-in-my-field\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Taking up assignments that are not in my field - Credible Content Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Of late \u2013 for the past 5 odd months \u2013 I have been taking assignments that I haven\u2019t mentioned on this website, for instance designing and developing websites and setting...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/credible-content.com\/blog\/taking-up-assignments-that-are-not-in-my-field\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Credible Content Writing &amp;
