    When I say top quality I mean top, top quality. Unless you have impeccable writing skills please do not bother to reply.

    I would need to see some samples of your work and, if satisfied, would give you a small job on a pre-agreed fee. On completion I would decided whether we could go forward with a part-time job at circa $1,000 per month. Should that work out with all work being delivered on time we can talk about a full time job if that suits you.

    Topics: PC hardware and the technology behind them, recent developments in PC hardware and software, and specialist hardware e.g., enterprise storage solutions. So, in addition to writing skills, you need to be very comfortable with technology, with researching it and with writing about it.

    I'll take it that the ideal candidate can also read carefully. To apply please send me a PM with a sample of at least one quality article you've written (or a link to it). Please then post in here just that you've sent me a PM.

    Added: First person submissions only. Do not submit someone else's work even if that person works for you.

    PMs sent. I sent two PMs since my sample cannot fit in a single PM. Thanks.

    Pay will be per article for a total of $3,000 -$5,000 a month.

    It's irrelevant till I find someone who matches what I'm looking for. When I do terms will be negotiated at a rate that could make them about $3-5,000 a month. The right person will find that money isn't an issue and we can reach agreement.

    So far, I've got some good material and some unadulterated rubbish :( I've also had two people submit the exact same article. You'd have thought that a bloke nicking someone else's article would at least pick a half decent one!

    I've replied to all PMs. Those who've been turned down have been provided detailed reasons.

    Thanks to everyone who showed interest.

    In the article writing world, prices are decided generally at $0.0x per word. So I need length of articles or atleast number of articles per month in the $3000-$5000 per month part-time job that you offer.

    Thanks
    Ishan
    P.S. - Sent you a sample article via PM.

    My articles vary in length and complexity and the rate per word would therefore vary too. Like I said, the right candidate will find that the pay is agreeable; the rate is far more than anything they are likely to get in DP threads generally, and money is a topic I'll discuss with the winning candidate.

    The discussion of pay and rates in this thread is now over.
