Nice points.

writing has been a driving force behind the growth of my business and existing network.

Can someone with experience explain if this works in every niche? For example, a low level web dev making 60-70K a year in a corporate job - what should he write about?

    Hey - Thanks, I wrote this!

    A low level web dev could write about their process, various trends in web development that have caught their eye, insights about the various industries you would work with, etc...

    If you have an ideal client, write about things that they would want to know about web development. For example, maybe they want to know the difference between SquareSpace and Wordpress? Or maybe they want to know whether or not responsive design is worth it? All of these topics will elevate your name in the eyes of potential clients and demonstrate that you're not just a low level web dev :)
