Default Hiring WAHM Writers

Hello everyone!

We are looking for approximately 5000+ articles to be written. I know the numbers are really high for a single person to handle and that is why we are hiring multiple writers. Please email me your resume and type of work you have done. We are not looking for starters only individuals with background experience and some work to backup.

I have attached an image of my email address to avoid spam please mail me places you have written for or write for etc. And we can then get started. Do not hesitate to mail me. I am as serious as it gets in hiring.

Thank you for posting this here!

Will there be ongoing work once these articles are completed? Would you mind posting the pay rate? Are these articles based on certain topics?

I am trying to copy & paste the email, and it does not let you. I would like to apply. I would also like to know the pay rate per article. Thanks.

That's because it is an image. You can't copy and paste an image into a text field. You'll have to copy it down and write it in.

Be careful with this one. I sent an email late last night and was responded to quickly. The information I received said that they're looking for writers to add articles to ehow, bright hub, suite101, and work.com. I declined it because I know most, if not all, of those sites forbid outsourcing in their TOS. So just tread cautiously. Pay wasn't mentioned in the reply email, but seeing how most of these are rev share sites I'm not sure how they would be paying. He mentioned there were other sites, but he couldn't remember the names.

Hey I got the same response (you give your rates) and it is finance articles with a link back to different finance websites like creditloan.com. What do you all think?

Well after I declined, he sent me an email back saying that he wasn't interested in making money. He never did tell me what he pays or suggest that I send any rates - and I did ask. I'm not going to say not to pursue it, but after 4 years in this field I would tell you to be careful. It may end up being a great gig, or not. Good luck to those who try it out.

I would say not to pursue it. This person is violating contracts with BH, Suite101, and DS (since all eHow articles go through them) and is paying writers less than what they would make if they wrote for the companies directly. This is similar to the WPLH scam that recently occurred.
