Native English - Consistent SEO travel writer needed (USA)
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I am looking to onboard one creative and fluent or native English speaker with research capabilities and strong writing skills to write original travel itineraries and/or articles (i.e., # Days in X, # Things to do in X). Preference is given to someone with travel experience in the places you write on (currently focusing on the USA). A background in SEO is a must (you should understand anchor text, internal/external linking, where to place keywords, etc.).
Articles submitted will be checked for plagiarism.
If you have experience writing SEO-optimized travel blog posts/articles/itineraries/listicles, we would love to hear from you!
Specs:
- At first, title and keywords will be given to you, which may or may not correspond to a stop in an itinerary or things to do in a post. You will be responsible for writing coherent and logical itineraries and posts (i.e., stops follow each other, distances aren't too far apart). Eventually, I would like you to also do the keyword research and create the briefs (rates to be discussed in the future) & work with my VA to upload stock photos to the article, or upload them yourself.
- Must follow content and writer guidelines that will be provided to you. These are our style guides that must be adhered to for all articles
- Content needs to be input into a form on our website - a username and password will be created and given to you once hired and briefed on the assignment. If all is well, eventually you can create your own account and publish under your own name.
- Each stop/suggestion in an itinerary/article must include: Business Website (English), Tripadvisor link (.com) & Google Places ID (Link and instructions on how to find this information will be provided)
Requirements for proposals (if you do not fulfil the below requirements, your proposal will be immediately discarded):
- Currently focusing on writing travel content for places in the USA/for an American audience. Therefore, must have familiarity with this region.
- Output expected: 1500 words (minimum) X 5 articles each week
- Please submit example work. Please attach a PDF or a DOCX. Please do not include a URL to a private Google Doc.
- Please note, we have a modest budget, but good writers can expect a large allocation of work. We are willing to pay upwards of $15-$25 per 1000 words depending on where you have visited (USA experience preferred), your English ability, and your writing experience.
- If accepted, you will be paid to write 1 article. If we are happy with the work you have produced, you will be given further articles.
When pitching, quote per 1000 words.
