I am hiring a team of writers to complete articles for a motorcycle blog. Right now this site is relatively new however I’ve already built large SEO driven sites with hundreds of thousands of regular pageviews, and I’m eager to build this site into the ultimate place for motorcycle enthusiasts to use as a source of awesome sportbike information.
I’m looking for experienced motorcycle riders with good knowledge to share, but it’s also totally ok if you’re a passionate motorcycle hobbyist or weekend warrior without significant riding experience yet.
If you’d like to get paid for your motorcycle knowledge, and earn a little extra to pay for your own motorcycle fun, then this a great opportunity.
LANGUAGE SKILLS
You must be a native English speaker. Those short listed will be tested (and paid for it) prior to being hired and if your spelling, grammar or sentence structure is off then you will not proceed.
WRITING REQUIREMENTS
All topics to write about (specifically to do with sportbike motorcycles) will be pre-chosen.
In some cases the introduction and main headings of the article will also be provided (but not always) and you simply need to fill in the main bodies of text.
You will receive training on how I need my blog articles to be written.
You do not need to have significant writing experience in order to apply, I’m very open to new writers who are familiar with motorcycles and are willing to learn.
*Please note that when applying for this work that you must tell me what your favourite motorcycle is and why, in your application. This shows me that you’ve properly read this job posting and are not simply hitting ‘apply’ without giving due consideration to the requirements. Thank you.
Articles must be completed in Microsoft Word or software that can save files in a format that Microsoft Word can display perfectly.
You can be located anywhere in the world, this work is 100% remote.
WRITING SCHEDULE
All writers will be expected to produce four articles per month. It is critical that you not miss a publishing date.
Writers who miss a publishing date will not be retained.
Writers can almost always pick up additional articles to write if you’d like more work.
I will require responses to update requests in a timely manner with concise and clear communication.
I’m happy for you to work at your own pace without micro-management however I may request more updates early on as we learn to work together.
PAYMENT
Payment will be $0.05 (USD) per word and the articles will be anywhere from 1000 to 3000 words in length, which means payment per article of between $50 and $150.
Article lengths are assigned based on the topic, so you’ll know up-front how much you’ll be paid for your work.
Invoices to be submitted on the first day of every month with payments then made via PayPal. If you do not have a PayPal account that can receive funds then I will not be able to pay you.
CREDIT
Writers will have their bio appear on their articles (unless you’d prefer it not to be) and you can mention a social media profile in that bio if you choose to build up an audience over time.
However, some articles may be requested to be ghost written. For example, if I reviewed a particular piece of motorcycle equipment on my YouTube channel, I may request that a writer create an article based on my opinions and experience with the item and publish it under another name.
Understand also that your submitted work may be altered to some degree prior to publishing.
OWNERSHIP
You understand and agree that all photos, videos, written content, and all other media submitted to becomes the exclusive property of the associated website and parent company and you do not have the right to republish that content on your own site or through any other medium.
LEGAL
This opportunity is available for writers around the world. This is a freelance writing gig and you will be an independent contractor who invoices on the first of every month and receives information for tax purposes once per year as required. The website you will be writing for is owned by Infinity Trust which is based in Brisbane, Australia.
Thank you for your interest.
