In a country like Nigeria where amenities like electricity, internet connection, electricity, and computers are still considered a luxury, people who thrive and make a fortune for themselves truly deserve some accolades. This is the case of Bamidele Onibalusi, a young Nigerian who has grown to become an authority on the subject of guest blogging.
Bamidele Onibalusi
Like most Nigerian youths, Oni was an ambitious 16-year-old who wanted to make money online (through legal means). His didn’t break into blogging with the intention of teaching writers how to be ”in charge” as indicated by the name of his
blog instead, he started by writing about entrepreneurship, business, and motivation through a blog called ‘Young Pre Pro’ which stood for
Young Upcoming Professional. He engaged in guest posting in order to promote the blog and achieved a whopping amount of 270 guest posts in eight months. With the influence he garnered and his consistency in blogging, he caught the attention of people who had found his posts appealing and thus, requested he writes for them.
Seeing the success he had achieved, he deemed it fit to start a blog that would enlighten writers on how to become successful freelance writers like himself. Today, writersincharge.com is a standard website where amateur Nigerian
writers, home and abroad, who want to make a living writing, can visit to gain practical knowledge.
A goldmine
Oni started blogging in 2010 and since then he has carved a niche for himself. The website, writersincharge.com, contains the stories of writers – inclusive of Oni – who have succeeded in their careers and how others can learn from them. One of them is the account of how Oni earned $1000 in three months after closing down his already existing blog and starting from scratch in a different niche. The website also has a goldmine of constructive information on magazines and blogs that pay writers and accept guest posts. Writersincharge.com is the go-to website for all writers who want to make a living.
As a result of Oni’s success, he has been featured in Forbes, Huffington Post, Business Insider, Fast Company and a host of other magazines and blogs which prove his credibility in the field.
