Ah....family matters has kept me very occupied the last week, and I am a bit late in posting this fantastic opportunity for moms wanting to work from home! Definitely a wahm source worth checking out, if you have not already.
About.com is starting a new program for work from home freelance writers,whom will be referring Contributing Writers. This is different than About.com's Guides.
"Contributing writers work from home, virtually, alongside existing About.com Guides, covering specific subtopics. They are responsible for producing at least 12 pieces of content every month; a mix of short and long-form content. Unlike a full About.com Guide, Contributing Writers are not responsible for managing or maintaining a full GuideSite."
For example, the guidesite, antique furniture, needs contributing writers to write subtopics in that category, but not to maintain that site.
Payment for work at home contributing writers is stated as:
"In addition to a base payment (guaranteed to be $500 per month for Contributing Writers in their first year, with a minimum of $250 per month thereafter), About.com pays Contributing Writers by measuring page view growth (month-over-month growth in the number of page views for Contributing Writers in their first year, and year-over-year growth in the number of page views thereafter). Additional payment incentives are provided for specific levels of page view growth."
