Only thing, writing for the web for the countless e-zines and newsletters and websites is not for those who intend to make a living from their writing. Not at the start.

If you are willing to write and submit your articles for free, don't miss out. For the aspiring writer, it is a good way to start. The more you write, the more exposure you will get, readers will get to know your name. Writing for the internet helps to drive traffic to your website.
