Hi,
I write mostly freelance journalism for magazines, newspapers and websites, but would also like to do blogging for companies and non-profits.
Today, an internet marketing company contacted me about blogging for them. I sent them samples of articles I've written for the Web, but I've never written about – and know nothing about – internet marketing.
I'm puzzled as to how a writer goes about blogging on a subject they know nothing about if the client doesn't provide guidance and sources. This seems especially challenging for a subject as open-ended and wide as internet marketing. In general, how do bloggers write for clients without coming to the blog with pre-existing knowledge of the client's industry?
Thanks,
eScotty
