It would be fair to say that it is not much of a secret anymore that I enjoy writing. The web is one medium that allows me to practice my skills and share my thoughts on a regular basis. After a ‘close but no cigar’ attempt at securing a local sports writing position (not enough experience I was told), I have become determined to create a trail for myself on the World Wide Web. What I mean by this is that I have begun a quest to get published in any way possible.

Companies have an increased demand for content on their websites for a few reasons. (1) It allows for constant updates with minimal effort on their part. (2) Fresh content increases the probability of more readers/hits to the site which bodes well when negotiating with advertisers. (3) Useful and pertinent information holds site visitors’ attention longer.

Blogging networks have become a unique way for websites to outsource their needs through freelance writers that are willing to take on the task. Recently, I have agreed to the requirements for a blog in the Denver City section of HotelsByCity.com. I will join a community of bloggers with the goal of being the most active and content rich writer. The more I can prove my ability to drive traffic, the more beneficial this arrangement will become. Most importantly, this is an opportunity to gain the experience and credibility I will need going forward if I continue to pursue freelance opportunities.

I hope that you will take the time to read my posts on occasion and spread the word. Your support is appreciated!
