Do you want to write for WomenWithDroids?
Hello WomenWithDroids readers!
One of our goals in the new year is to increase the number of posts that we publish per month. In order to help us achieve that goal, we have decided to bring on a new contributor – which could be you!
I want to make it clear up front that none of our contributors are paid for writing for WomenWithDroids.com (yet!), though I have agreed to split any ad/affiliate link revenue among the contributors (or spend it on accessories we agree to purchase for review) after we earn enough to cover web hosting costs. This year we used the income to purchase our ad cards and some accessories that we reviewed over the previous few weeks.
So, if you are a Droid Woman and you’re interested in blogging for a hobby and love your Android phone, please consider joining us! (It’s fun!)
Here are the requirements:
- female
- uses an Android device as primary phone or tablet
- good writing skills
- can commit to writing one post per month
- can use the WordPress author interface (if you’ve never used it before, it’s not difficult to learn)
The posts can be simple app reviews or how-to articles, video reviews, or accessory reviews.
The way we are going to ‘audition’ new contributors is to invite anyone that is interested to write a guest post, then we will narrow down our favorites and possibly ask you to write a second post or answer a few questions by email, then we will select our next ‘permanent’ contributor. (P.S. Even if you can’t commit to contributing once/month, feel free to write if you’re interested in guest-posting one time!)
Here are examples of past guest-posts:
- Accessory Review: Tune Belt by Deb
- App Review: Startup Auditor by Ellie
- On the Move? Pack Your Apps! by Liz
To ‘apply’, email me at renee at womenwithdroids.com to reserve a topic (to make sure we don’t have overlap in our guest posts), then I will set up an author account for you so you can write, edit, and save your guest post. Over the next month or so, we’ll publish all well-written entries on the blog.
Feel free to email me or comment below if you have any questions! I can’t wait to find out who is interested in helping WomenWithDroids grow in 2011 by joining us as a contributor!
If there’s anyone that emailed me or tweeted about wanting to be a contributor and didn’t hear back from me or receive WordPress login details, please let me know!
