To a newcomer, one of the most appealing things about freelance writing is the low barrier to entry.

We’ve all been there at least once, if not once a week. Staring at our computer screen with no idea what to write. As a freelance writer, sometimes it’s challenging to constantly be coming with new article ideas and new blog posts to write.

It’s a bit of conundrum, isn’t it? You need a full writing portfolio to get hired to write paid articles, but you need to write articles to fill your portfolio.

Whether you’re focusing on copywriting for businesses, writing features for magazines, or reporting for your local paper, you need a good writing portfolio to get hired for more work. Obviously, you need to include your best articles but what else should you add to your portfolio? Let’s look at what else you can put in your writing portfolio to catch the attention of potential clients, editors, and employers.

As we’ve been over before, your portfolio is crucial to helping you get the freelance writing work you want—and deserve. But what good is a portfolio if no one sees it?

There’s a classic philosophical saying out there: “If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” I was thinking about it the other night and a similar question could be asked about our online writing portfolios. “If your portfolio doesn’t get any views, does it move your writing career forward?”

Think about it for a minute: can you count the number of publications you’ve pitched to over the course of your freelance writing career? Whether you have two months or ten years of experience, we’re betting you’re well past having lost count. It is a numbers game, after all: the more good, publication-tailored ideas you pitch, the more work you’ll get.

When it comes building a beautiful online portfolio, your writing only tells part of the story at a glance. If you want a portfolio that will quickly catch the attention of potential clients and employers, you’ve got to add professional images to make your portfolio ‘POP!’

Online portfolios allow writers and journalists to collect their clips and show off what they can do, but it's not just writers that can benefit from a good portfolio.

Freelance writers know how to get shit done. There isn’t really a rulebook for what we do, which makes it all the more exciting and worthwhile for so many of us. It’s a welcome challenge—a chance to take this craft that’s your calling and be able to exist in the world by doing it.

It is rare that a writer can get hired without providing work samples. Clients want to know that they are hiring writers who can effectively communicate messages within a certain industry or about a particular topic. Some clients are looking for writers who can use the brand voice and convey messages in line with existing marketing materials. All of this means you need to have a great portfolio.

Imagine being in a mall with a number of shops, when all you need to buy is one shirt. How do you decide which shop to go to? The most obvious step for any person would be to have a look at the shops through their windows and decide which one offers the best options.

We all know the power of images to convey a message, trigger an emotional response or simply look beautiful so it makes sense you should put effort into the choice and display of images on your writing portfolio.
