Let me preface this request by saying this is a paid per article position. Every article that you submit and gets published, you will get paid for. We're looking for article writers, not reviewers.

Requirements:

1) Firm grasp of the English language.
2) Have access to a digital camera and can manipulate images on their own (resize, crop, screenshots, etc.).
3) Strong interest in the fast paced tech field.
4) Able to write 1000-1500 words.
5) Available to write at least two articles per month.

For an example of what I'm interested in, please take a look at our Tech Bits section. Topics will be provided or you are free to venture on your own. As long as it is your own original writing and is tech related, it will work.

If you are interested, please email me directly. We are looking for at least two (2) writers.

If you wish to submit guides, that will work as well. The pay will be determined on a per article basis since word count may vary.

I'm mainly interested in article writers to boost our tech content. However, anyone interested in submitting content on a consistent basis will not be turned away.

i've looked at the section and im still afraid i dont quite know what kind of articles or writing you are looking for...

from what i see with writing jobs, usually a sample is required, and usually it comes from a same test (written topic) that the applicants all write about, and that test is specifically geared to the job to give them an idea of it and to see if they will be any good at it

The section is simply articles that discuss current events in technology. Maybe that will simplify things.

A sample is required if you intend to take this job. I explain this when you email me Wink

I don't have a camera, so I can't do pics, but every once in a while I have something to say. I probably won't be able to completely fill the position you need, but I do have a recent article you can go ahead and use if you're at all interested:

http://www.lollercaust-lan.net/forum/index.php/topic,437.0.html

I assure you that's me, too. That site is on your hosting (SCHostPro) and registered in my best friend's name (he's KrimsonKamikaze). Idunkno, let me know if your interested.


*Whoops, probably should have emailed you this... oh well. It's not a big deal.

I guess I am interested then if that is the case but I have to ask if these positions are still available?
