I agree with Anita. There are a number of usage and typing errors that indicate that this is definitely not an “English is my first language” website! How can you be telling us what successes you have been for 10 years when you cannot even put out a site that reads easily and naturally and contains typos?

@Anita, the course is not about how to write. It is about making a living from freelance writing on the web. In other words, they won’t teach you grammar or composition, but rather how to find freelance jobs, how to make sure you will get paid, how to market yourself and so on.

Even though you’ve given a perfect reference for the site, I am feeling a bit skeptical. I spotted several typing errors just in the first couple of paragraphs. That, to me, doesn’t bode well for a course on Freelance Writing.
Personally, I think that someone offering a class about teaching someone how to write, should be able to proofread their own.

@Susan, it is a one time payment of $37.

I checked out the Freelance Superstar site, it looks like it’s more of a website than a course, which is fine. My question is, if anyone knows…is it a one shot payment of $37, or is it a monthly type of thing? I can’t find anything specific in the fine print. Thanks and live the DWT site as well!
