Hello everyone, I'm Josh and I'm looking for a number of authors to help with TutorialYard.com. I started the site a few months back but due to the circumstances surrounding it I was not able to work on it whatsoever. The idea has always been there but as unfortunate as it is my circumstances would not allow it. So a fresh new start is needed. Like I said, I need authors so NO investment is needed, I will also be writing tutorials one or two days per week. Server costs are covered, all I need are authors. The site itself will be dealing with Photoshop, drawing, HTML, Jquery, and 3D tutorials based on the wordpress platform. So, if you have any experience (in Photoshop, drawing, HTML etc etc) then be sure to contact me with a selection of your work. A good grasp of the English language will be needed as you will be writing tutorials. Each author will get 10% of whatever the site makes per month and I'm looking for a number of you! The workload will be very small but if you're interested then be sure to contact me here or via email which is I'm looking forward to hearing from you and perhaps working with you! Kind regards, - Josh.
If you give each author 10% of what the site makes each month, then you can only hire ten authors? Only nine if you want to make at least 10% of profits.... What is your site earning at the present time? I would make some tut's, but I want to make sure your site is gonna stick around. If you give all of your profits away, you will have no choice but to shut it down. Once you promise everyone the shares of your site, you can't really get them back...
Good point! Will there be transparency with the site earnings? How will we know the true and accurate figures? I like the idea though, maybe you can clarify.
Which is why I am only looking for 3-4 partners. At present the site is not earning anything as it has no content. I've only just started (this past week) working on it (the theme itself) along purchasing the server. I myself would take 10%, the rest of the site earnings (50%) would go to cover the server costs, purchasing themes, competitions etc for the community. I'm sure there is a way to do this whether it be a screencast or even attaching your guys onto a site specific paypal account. Anyway, as I said, if you're interested then please either send me an email or contact me via PM.
Well if you want really good tutorials ( so good content ) then you MUST hire tutorial writer. Good writer wont work for free, its natural. They wont have time to sell out without money.
1 or 2 tutorials per week. The whole point of this project is that we are all in it together, hence the reason I am looking for partners. If the site doesn't make any money, nobody makes money and that is certainly not going to hapen, especially when you have unique high quality tutorials. And in terms of how much time 1 or 2 tutorials per week ok going to take, well it's not much at all.
