Instructions

1. Identify a topic that holds your interest and with which you are familiar. Choose something that you know about. Direct knowledge and insight into the subject material makes all the difference in your ability to create a sufficient amount of quality, relevant content that covers your topic of interest. Examples of creative writing and content topics could include:

   Cooking: Recipe development, cooking tips, kitchen know how, utensil and appliance reviews, and ingredient research.

   Travel: Famous Landmarks, travel options, lodging reviews, activity and tour descriptions, language and culture exploration, religious travel implications and effects.

   Automobiles: New models, used models, auto repair, auto customization, auto efficiency, green autos, alternative fuel vehicles.

   These are just three examples of topics that you could use for content development through the process of creative writing.

2. Once a topic of interest is developed. Research the related internet competition by searching for the related terms and definitions. Most of the time, common topics are well covered and represented within the ranks of the major search engines. That means that you will have to create niche content based on subtopics related to your main focus. Often these subtopics are easier to rank for in the search arena, as well as their readership is more focused and tuned in to the particular information that you are trying to convey with your creative writing. Examples of subtopics include:

   Gardening: Growing vegetable gardens in a limited space organically.

   Business: Building a residual income through the use of creative writing and content development.

   These are two examples of viable content subtopics for you to develop.

3. Explore the functional aspects of getting your writing in front of an audience. Eyeballs equals income. There are two main ways of establishing a web presence. One way is to register a domain name of your own and purchase hosting for it. Then, use site building software to build your content site and add monetization strategies, such as interactive or display advertising, or affiliate links to commissioned products. The second way is to use a site like Ehow.com or Bukisa.com to generate revenue from your writing efforts.
