Hi there,
We're looking for writers who would like to write about _Fishing_.
READ THE JOB DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY BEFORE APPLYING!
It’s a big plus if you can also write about one or many of the following topics:
- Hunting
- Fishing
- Shooting
- Camping and Hiking
- Paddling
- Survival
- Biking
- Travel Destination
- Winter Sports
- Surfing
We offer up to $5-6 per 100 words. So please bid based on this number.
It is also a bit plus if you can provide your own unique photos illustrating your articles.
Applicants must:
- Be a native English writer or possess excellent written English
- Have a PayPal account, preferably
- Be detail-oriented
- Willing to conduct research on the topic
- Have excellent written communication skills
About the position
The position will start with 3-4 blog posts per month, with room to grow beyond this if you can deliver consistent quality work. Each blog post will have a variable number of words, mostly 1000-4000 words per post.
Please note that we have very high editorial standards compared to most other blogs. Every post that we publish goes through our strict editorial process where we check all claims and ideas for accuracy. Our readers trust us and we absolutely must ensure the highest quality content.
You'll be assigned topics by us and given a submission deadline. It's quite likely that in the first couple of weeks there will be a lot of feedback and editing required, but generally, once a writer gets into the swing of things, that part should be minimal.
All content must be original, actionable, informative, and to the point. No fluff or filler!
Note that we only require our writers to write the content with some text formatting in the article. Articles have to be submitted in Google Doc (no web design required).
Here's an example of the brief:

If you cannot follow the brief, please do NOT apply. Save your and my time.
If you can provide your own unique photos illustrating the article (for extra payment), it is a big plus. I will just need to get proof that these are your pictures (showing a screenshot of EXIF will suffice).
Payment details
- Articles must be written, edited, and gone through a round (or a few) of fixes before payment is made
- Payment will be made through PayPal - you will need to prepare an invoice
