@Caarol Neumann – I can now confirm that I have not received anything with your name included. If you see this and wish to resend, I will consider your application in the lot.

Any new applications will be kept on file for Round 2 (or probably Round 6 or 7 because there were a lot of great applications received and enough to cover a bunch more rounds! // Take care. \\ HART (1-800-HART)

And thanks to Hart for taking the time to personally check in here and answer questions!

(1) the topics really interested me
(2) I’m able to produce work quickly when it’s a “write what you know” situation. Sure, there will be times when research and sourcing is needed, but that’s not a huge burden.

Given that, I think the payment is good. In cases such as these, it’s important for me to think of the hourly wage – rather than the per piece amount. Does that make sense? For example, I just completed 10 articles (600 words each) for $50 . . . it took two hours and the editor was extremely impressed with the quality of writing. I knew the topice very well, so it was quick writing. So, that translated into a good deal.

I hope I’m not too obvious to say outloud that the (at) and (dot) was used to avoid spammers and it is

So, I keep applying and working all the time. If I spent less time looking for new opportunities I’d probably get more work done in less time! lol I never miss a deadline though, so it’s all good.

I also think the same. And you saying that makes me feel vindicated — sometimes I have to wonder what’s wrong with me and why it is I can’t seem to be content with what I currently have. At least now I know I’m not acting strangely.

Keep looking and applying. You never know when a current client will fall through. And you may find better clients to replace ones you have now.

Some clients I had when I started out were great, but I couldn’t afford to work for them now, they wouldn’t even come close to covering higher overhead, not to mention a better lifestyle I can afford now.

For a seasoned writer it may not be great money, but for someone that knows the topic well then it would be decent money.

You stated in the ad a very large list of topics available – with only 2 to be hired right now – there may be topics that someone knows so well that it may only take them a few minutes a day to write up. In that situation the pay is quite nice.

The pay is also fine for those starting out or wanting to get into blogging for a network. With a growing network, this may be a perfect opportunity for some.

Just sayin’.

Kori is correct. The positions are basically revenue sharing starting the 4th month but guaranteed the minimum – blogger which ever is higher. The traffic bonus that I am offering is a simple calculation the accountant in me has come up with, based on the public sitemeter stats, and I was intending on including this from day one.

As of this moment, the response has been great! Keep ‘em coming in! But hurry as I will probably be making my selections before the weekend is out. If there are any more questions, feel free to ask them here – I am now subscribed to these comments, and my answer may here may help clear up Q’s for other people too.

Thanks for posting this for me Deb

I just wanted to make sure it was definitely legit before passing along the link to a friend. She is a former nurse who is now a SAHM, and she does some blogging, so I thought this might be a good fit for her.

This is someone I know. If you (or anyone else) have any concerns, do post them here and I’ll have him come address them.

I am curious — is this someone you know personally or someone who sent you a blind ad?
