Freelance writing, Tainted Green.com, pays $10+ per post

Description

TaintedGreen.com is searching for 1-2 bloggers who obsess about green technology and who understand how to identify topics that both create interest and serve relevant advertising.

We aren�t the first place to talk about green news, instead we�re focused on unearthing the truth about green. That means analyzing new product launches or marketing blitzes with a critical eye and forming an opinion that readers will either resonate with or disagree with � the end goal being to create meaningful conversation.

Here are a few specifics:

- Research and choose your own green technology topics
- 2 posts per week on scheduled days
- 2 posts to the Tainted Green forums per month to connect with teammates
- 300 words per article
- $10 guaranteed compensation per post for the first three months with unlimited growth through revenue-sharing. Traffic is great but we�re looking for someone who is also able to assess whether or not a topic is going to generate dollars in parallel.
- Excellent writing and grammar skills required � after an initial onboarding process you�ll be able to publish live to the front page.
- Willingness to accept feedback and adapt writing style to fit with the Tainted Green culture
- Demonstrated experience in the blogging or related space, especially meshing relevant topics in an interesting way where advertising dollars exist
- Minimally we�re looking for a 6 month commitment
