Get good at writing. There really isn't much to it aside from writing content in the field. If you have the skills to write and know enough, you should be able to survive as a technical writer. You could offer your services on freelance sites, or make your own site.

I believe the best way is to post your own content, usually on your own forum or site. And do the usual guest blogging/posts.

Yes, you can make money by creating content for various industries and businesses that are in need of technical writers. There are various ways to get clients, but before that I would suggest you to create an incredible portfolio to showcase your skills. This will increase your chances of getting hired.

Then, you can create your profile on freelancing sites like Upwork, Fiverr or Freelancer.

Or through cold outreach, you can contact different companies and businesses directly to offer your technical writing services.

Also, create a well-optimized profile on LinkedIn and connect with industries related to your niche.

I have done a lot of technical writing, however, I have never been approached by companies to do technical writing directly. I found these jobs through freelancer platforms. IN order to do technical writing, you not only need language skills, but also knowledge of technical subjects and the ability to do research
