I'm not sure exactly what you mean by freelance writing. 

There are sites like TextBroker that you can get paid writing gigs (people post a description of what they want and you can accept it). They pay a range based on the quality of your past writing (ranging from 0.7-5 cents / word).  You can work as often or as little as you want with them (as long as you complete all the assignment you accept of course).

Or, you could hang out a shingle and offer to do this sort of work like budgetblonde does (http://www.budgetblonde.com/hire-me/).

Heck, she event offers a course on how to do this - https://gumroad.com/l/write-for-blogs-master-level/budgetblonde#.  I'm sure this would cover all your questions.

Or, you could offer to work for a specific site, probably related to your blogging niche.  I used to do this on MoneySmartsBlog – I co-owned the blog and had my half bought out by the other owner.  He wanted me to keep writing, which I did for $20 / post.  He told me I could post as often or as seldom as I wanted on whatever topics I wanted.  Eventually we agreed to part ways, and when we announced it I had numerous offers of other writing gigs (which leads me to suspect that you can get more than $20 / post =).

This is almost a blog post ;-P.
