Description
We're looking for writers for a few of our sites: a small business resource site, a site about internet privacy and VPNs, and another about home safety and security. The ideal candidate will have a passion and background in those topics, understand on-site SEO, be able to problem-solve and work independently, write unique, compelling content, and meet deadlines.
About us:
We aim to provide the most accurate software, product, and service reviews along with compelling and thorough small resource guides. We’re not looking for boilerplate content -- we’re looking for unique, friendly, professional, and accessible writing on topics like “the small business guide to email marketing” “content marketing for small businesses” “how to start X business” “an overview of small business/startup loans” and so on.
Requirements:
Skilled writers who are:
- knowledgeable and passionate
- able to explain technical concepts to a general audience
- able to provide a unique take on the “same old” business topics
- understands the basics when it comes to SEO
- committed (nay, obsessive) about quality, accuracy, and attention to detail in their work
- deadline-driven - we're a business, you're not writing the Great American Novel
- willing to work how we ask - we're pretty laid back, but we have a system that works for us and we expect you to follow it
Sidebar: Deadlines are really important to us. The number of freelancers who seem to have heart attacks and tragic car accidents the night before a deadline is something of a medical anomaly. If you can't make deadlines, or you're a chronic procrastinator, DON'T APPLY, please.
Who we're looking for:
- Native English speakers.
- Excellent writing skills
- Strong research skills
- Basic technical skills
- Ability to work on their own
Working conditions:
We're a fully remote team, from the islands of East Asia to the mountains of South America, to the windswept plains of Middle America. We use Asana, Google Docs, and Slack to keep our team in touch. We don't care when or where you work (as long as you meet deadlines, obviously). We have a strong preference for writers who can deliver high quality and quantity of work. Some of our writers do 20k words a week. We pay every 2 weeks, via PayPal, Wire Transfer, Chase QuickPay, and even Xoom.com.
