The demand for skilled web writers has never been higher, with the rise of digital media transforming the landscape of communication and marketing. Whether the goal is to specialise in writing exclusively for the internet or to expand existing skills, this comprehensive Web Writing course offers an essential foundation for success. Web writing differs significantly from traditional writing, requiring an understanding of how to craft engaging, targeted content that not only captures attention but also delivers key information quickly and effectively. This course provides the tools needed to thrive in this dynamic industry, ensuring learners develop expertise in both the art and technicalities of online content creation.
A core focus of the course is teaching the ability to write clearly and concisely, a critical skill for web writing where attention spans are short and content must be immediately engaging. Learners will be guided through the process of distilling complex ideas into simple, easily digestible content without losing meaning or impact. This includes mastering tone, style, and structure to suit various online formats, from blog posts to news articles. The course also emphasises the importance of research, fact-checking, and proofreading, ensuring that all content produced is accurate, credible, and polished to a professional standard.
Another key element of the course is learning to tailor content to specific audiences. In the digital world, writing for a general audience is rarely effective. Instead, writers must create targeted, audience-specific content that speaks directly to the needs, interests, and motivations of their readers. Through this course, learners will develop the skills to analyse and understand their audience, and craft content that resonates, whether for business, entertainment, or informational purposes. Additionally, the course teaches how to format copy for online publication, ensuring that it is both visually appealing and functional across various platforms and devices.
Ultimately, this course equips learners with a versatile skill set that can be applied in various professional roles, from freelance writing to staff positions in media and marketing. The ability to write effectively for the web is a valuable asset in today’s job market, and those who complete this course will be well-positioned to offer their expertise to businesses, media outlets, and other organisations looking to strengthen their online presence. By mastering the art of web writing, learners will be able to confidently navigate the digital world and capitalise on the growing opportunities within it.

Career Profile - Writer
Career Profile
Using imagination and research skills, writers create works of fiction and non-fiction, including books, poetry and manuals
As a writer, you’ll usually either be commissioned to write or you’ll submit a draft to an agent or publisher in the hope of securing a contract for the rest of the works.
Your writing work will involve coming up with ideas for stories, plots, characters, names, headings, or discovering facts and relevant information, etc. You’ll need to carry out in-depth research and develop your writing by editing and reworking it. You’ll also need to proofread your writing so it’s a good standard, though it will usually also be professionally proofread and edited before publication.
Writing requires discipline, determination and resilience, and because a writing career offers relative freedom, you’ll need to find what suits you in terms of working pattern and style to produce your best work.
Types of writing
You could write in various forms, including:
* children’s stories
* life writing
* magazine and newspaper articles
* non-fiction texts, including technical guides and manuals
* novels
* poetry
* screen and radio
* scripts for theatre
* short stories
* web content.
There are also opportunities for writers in areas such as mobile phone content and computer game scripts.
Some writers may find avenues to diversify their writing and write in different forms, such as published novelists also writing reviews and literary criticism.
Responsibilities
As a writer, you’ll need to:
* research the market including reading relevant publications or blogs, and stay up to date with writing that is being produced in your chosen field
* select subject matter based on personal or public interest, or as commissioned by a publisher or agent
* undertake background research including desk-based research and conduct site visits or interviews
* structure and plan writing projects
* edit, revise and review work, especially in response to feedback
* work to tight deadlines, especially for theatre, screen and radio
* submit material for publication in the required and expected format
* network with other writers, as well as others involved in the industry such as publishers, booksellers and organisers of literary events
* liaise with publishers, agents, script editors, producers and directors
* finding, pursuing and maintaining knowledge of publication opportunities
* market your work, including maintaining an online presence through a website, blog or social media presence
* talk about your work at events, such as literary festivals, and conduct readings or book signings
* teach writing in further or higher education settings or run workshops privately
* critique the work of other writers including sometimes providing mentoring or coaching services
* manage the business side of writing including maintaining financial records, checking contracts and submitting invoices and tax returns.
Salary
* Writer salaries are notoriously low, variable and unpredictable and it’s common for a writer (dedicating part of their working time to writing) to earn as little as £3,000 to £7,000 per year.
* The Authors’ Licensing and Collecting Society reports that typical earnings from freelance journalism are as low as £17,500 per year.
* In rare cases, a writer may be lucky to earn a significant amount for their writing, even reaching six figures for the most fortunate.
The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) Freelance Fees Guide sets out indications of average rates for different kinds of freelance writing. The BBC offers standard rates, which are available on The Writers’ Guild of Great Britain (WGGB) – Rates and Agreements.
Having a good agent, business manager and/or accountant is essential for most high-earning writers.
Working Hours
Depending on your employment arrangements and personal life, your working pattern as a writer may be entirely flexible and varied or follow a schedule.
Some writers will use weekends and evenings to work, fitting their responsibilities around other employment or family commitments, while others adopt a disciplined approach, keeping strict office hours, and possibly working away from home to avoid distractions.
What to expect
* While most writers are self-employed freelancers, some may be taken on for short-term contracts in television, radio, screen or theatre. There are also some opportunities to be employed as writers in residence in particular communities or organisations.
* Professional writers supplement their income in a range of ways. This can be through teaching, lecturing and self-publishing, for example, or from prizes, fellowships, grants and bursaries. Many writers have a portfolio career, with writing being just one aspect.
* Writers live and work throughout the UK, but the highest concentration of writers is in London and the South of England.
* Research shows that there are pay gaps linked to social class, gender, ethnicity and geographic region. The Authors’ Licensing and Collecting Society carries out work to understand and highlight what writers need for their working environment and to report on the challenges they face.
* Although most writers are based at home, some travel may be necessary, for meeting publishers and agents and attending conferences, author events and literary festivals.
Skills
You’ll need to have:
* literary skills and excellent written English
* imagination
* a clear, entertaining style
* an organised approach and the ability to work to tight deadlines, while maintaining attention to detail
* excellent research skills, both literary and business-related
* self-discipline and time management skills
* the ability to work alone for long periods
* verbal communication and networking skills for developing media contacts
* marketing skills and an understanding of new media as a tool for self-promotion
* commitment and the desire to succeed
* IT, web, typing and editing skills
* the necessary financial skills to manage yourself in the employment market
* the ability to understand and accept criticism
* persistence, determination, resilience and enthusiasm.
Career prospects
As you gain a back catalogue of publications, income from new work (often in the form of advances) may be complemented by income from previous work, in the form of royalties on published works, public lending rights payments, payments for anthologising and so on.
As your profile increases there may also be more potential for earning income from teaching, lecturing and appearances at events.
In addition, some organisations offer salaried posts for writers in residence, and these are often restricted to published writers with a strong track record.
The career of a writer can be unpredictable so you must be resilient and keep up to date with what kind of writing is selling. Producing a steady output of work will help.
As well as your creative output, you’ll also need to work on marketing yourself and your work. An agent or a publisher is likely to help with publicity, but it’s important that you also look for opportunities yourself, such as:
* writing a blog
* creating a presence via social media
* interviews
* readings
* setting up your own website
* workshops and signings.
Discipline and determination to succeed are prerequisites for career development, but writers stress that the rewards of seeing their work in print or production make it all worthwhile.

Grading & How it Works
The UK has a unique higher education grading system. Its most unique feature compared to traditional grading systems is that it aims to be more specific in describing students’ academic achievement.
This type of assessment method is highly valued because it offers many advantages. Most importantly it highlights your academic strengths and specific skills, therefore, it helps employers gain a better understanding of your true potential.
Since it is proved to be such an efficient tool to assess students’ performance, many foreign countries like Canada, Australia and India are using the same grading system on some occasions with small changes to fit into their own local educational context.
We use a letter grade scale from A to F to indicate the students’ academic performance. If you get an A it means you have shown outstanding knowledge whereas if you get an F it means your score is not sufficient to pass the exam.
