    I am looking to hire/contract 2 individuals for long terms. This is not a bulk job, but rather a daily updating job. I need 2 seperate people, I will not hire 1person for both positions.

    Position 1: Article Writer
    Duties- write 10 unique original articles a month, roughly 1 article every 3 days. Articles should include thumbnail/regular image/s, be written well, be on-topic, capture interest, be atleast 500 words, and be submitted correctly.

    The right persons for this position must:
    - Be a native English Speaker
    - Be able to write using correct grammar
    - Be able to produce Articles up to my Specification
    - Be dependable
    - communicate well
    - Have knowledge or interest in UFO's, Paranormal, Alternative Science, Etc.


    I am expecting to pay between $5-$7 per article depending on qualifications, writing style, effort, and the likes. Articles must be submitted through my CMS, and include title, author, keywords, description, summary, and content.

    Position 2: Link Gatherer/Poster
    Duties- Gather and submit links/descriptions of current news from around the web on a frequent schedule.

    Locate articles that are "On Topic", copy the URL, and Description, Paste it to my CMS, and hit save. These need to be done atleast 5 days a week. It takes roughly 1 minute to submit a news story link once your logged on. I am expecting to pay between $.12-$.25 per entry depending on your schedule.

    I will pay more for a person who can split the postings up. For instance, I would rather have someone who will post 3 stories in the morning, and 4 at night than someone who will post 7 stories at one time daily.

    Both positions will be paid via Paypal only.

    The first few weeks I will prepay weekly, when trust is built, I will prepay monthly.

    If you are interested, Either post here, or PM me. State your price per article/link, how many links you can do on what schedule, etc.

    Last thing, I would rather have people who wouldn't mind their picture and bio shown on the site. Readers find more credibility in articles if they can visualize the author.

    Topic is UFO's, Paranormal, Alternative Science, Etc for both positions

    Thanks

    I think your rates are quite low, the going rate for a 500 word article is $10 and that doesn't include any uploading and keywords etc.

    This is a long term/permanent position. Im not asking for 3 articles, If I find a good writer, I will have them write thousands...

    I see alot of posts for 500 word articles being offered for $7 and under, and I have had a writer on steady payroll for over 16 months making several hundred every month pre-paid.



    There is no need to resize images, no need to place images in the article via html, etc. It's actually very easy. Click browse, select image off hard drive, that paste the placeholder in the article.

    Asfar as the keywords, is it really that hard to type 3-5 single words in a text field? Or copy a sentence and paste it into the description field?

    To be frank, people offering articles for $7 and under either desperately need the $7 and so a permanent position would not suit them, or they produce shit content.
    We can provide quality and unique content for $0.02 a word and I'll throw in the fact that we can meet a deadline for free.

    Thats kool, I'll keep your offer in mind. I have gotten a few offers for both positions already I have to review.

    As I said earlier, one of my permanent writers has already written and been paid for multiple thousands of articles.

    As business goes, repeat business is key, and repeat business is more valuable than landing a few deals here and there for 1 time shots.

    I would be extremely interested in your link gathering position. I already spend the vast majority of my day online and already have a huge interest in the topic at hand. I also feel I am infinitely more reliable than most and can assure you that you will get an excellent worker if you were to consider me. If you are interested could you please PM me and we can talk further? Thanks!
