    Overview

    This site is ideal for freelancers and self-employed enthusiasts. Our audience is interested in “how-to” guides and ways to make more money independently.

    Acceptable Content

    All categories require a minimum word count (the longer the better).

    Gigs & Freelance category (Popular!)
    600 words minimum.
    Creative ways to make side income and being independent (especially through a computer or smartphone).
    Think of topics such as “How to Make Money by Doing XYZ” and  “Get Paid to XYZ.”

    Blogging category
    800 words minimum.

    Topic Examples

    Note: Topics on programming, design, and anything that’s highly technical is generally NOT accepted.

    Ensure that your topics are fairly easy to implement. Think of the stay-at-home mom or dad who learns about an interesting idea and decides to try it with little hesitation.

    Tone and Quality

    Your tone should be friendly and conversational.

    Be detailed. Don’t just scratch the surface. Explain how something works and provide examples/stats/links.

    If you mention a case study or any external reference that supports your article, please link to it.

    Please break paragraphs into 2-3 sentences each. A wall of text is unattractive.

    Note: If your content is excessively poor, too generic or vague, we will leave it unpublished until you fix it.

    Article status

    Package members may publish existing articles — as long as you own the content.

    Previously-published content must link back to the original source at the beginning or at the end. For example: This article was originally published on [your-blog.com].

    Linking

    Important:
    1-2 self-serving links allowed in the body, only if they are essential to the article.

    Adding Images

    All articles must have a Featured Image and (at least) one additional image inside the body.

    Click the Pixabay icon available from the New Post screen to add them.
