Bitcoin Forum

I'm creating a free bitcoin website to get new beginners into bitcoin. Looking for writers to write articles that explain how to use various services and wallets like Electrum, Bitcoin Core, Setting up a Coinbase account, what exchanges are, how to use a bitcoin exchange, how to start mining (mainly as a hobby), what a mining pool is, how to use various bitcoin services such as purse.io, fold etc. How to make offline wallets using electrum/armory, paper wallets, using tails with electrum. How to send and receive bitcoin using phone wallets etc.

Paying $5-$10 per article if it is good and with non-broken english, screen shots help a lot. The website will have no ads and no revenue generation so this is more for us as a community to help support the Bitcoin community and help it grow.

Lowering the barrier to entry into bitcoin is great for all of us.

Post and PM if you have ideas/articles please.

Are you planning to support the site with ads, or is it a selfless act?

That's very nice of you, I must say. It's hard to find people nowadays who'll actually spend money for the greater good than for their personal interest.
I'm willing to help, either writing a few articles or/and help with SEO. (For free :))

No ads. Donations are welcome in form of Bitcoins or articles.

The site isn't quite ready for SEO yet, but I'd love a few intro articles. Feel free to pick any topic on bitcoin that would be useful to beginners and have a go at it :)

Awesome, thanks for clarifying. Was going to say the pay is vvvvvvvvvvvvery low but considering you're not doing it for profit, +1 for you!

I will write for free. PM me.

I'd write one on how to create a simple web shop, using Wordpress and GoUrl, that accepts Bitcoin as a payment method.
It would be around 750 words or more, with screenshots. I'm not a native speaker, but you can review my post history to see if my English skills are sufficient.

Hoping the topic isn't too niche for your website though, but I'd love to write about something that's somewhat technical.

I'm estimating it would take me about 2 days to write, if I squeeze it in between some other projects.

I can write on how to spend their bitcoins on different websites analysis of trends of bitcoin and things like this, please let me know if it works  for you.

I want to toss out a +1 for this idea. I'm not familiar with GoURL, but guides on how to set up shops are always desirable, as they help expand the BTC economy.

I'm offering help too. This is such a good idea! I can help talking about mining, cloud mining and trading BTC and altcoins.

let me know it it's needed.

I personally think getting newbies into trading is a generally bad idea. Explaining how to buy/sell? Sure. But people that are reading guides around here don't have the knowledge of how to evaluate coins/businesses to make informed decisions, so they're going to lose everything.

Your English seems to be just fine in this post. I'd be more than happy to add your wordpress + gourl article to the site. I'm sure it would help a lot of future web developers and would be great for increasing the scope of our community.

Using/spending bitcoin on various services would be a great addition. I'm not too concerned on bitcoin price analysis, but analysis looking at transaction volume or adoption etc would be good too.

Mining would be good, but I'm not a supporter of cloud mining anymore after what Zenminer/GAW Miner did to us. It destroyed my confidence in cloud mining and I automatically assume they are all ponzi's now - for better or for worse. A simple guide on how to buy/sell from an exchange would be good, but not trading or trading strategies as that's not really what I'm going after.

ok i am interested, can i write on setting up a coinbase account

Are you planning to do this only in English or are you thinking for other languages too?

I happen to have joined a signature campaign so I think my English writing skill is considerable.
I can write articles too I'm just no expert to any if the subjects you mentioned. But I do have an idea what to write about bitcoin, let me know if the topics like "how to earn bitcoin in bitcointalk.og or how to avoid red trust in bitcointalk.org" is something you may wanna publish :)

Are you still looking for writers? If so please send me a PM!

I'm with you on cloud mining. The simple fact is that if they were making profit, they wouldn't sell hashing power. If you were making profit, they wouldn't be selling hashing power. Therefore, it's impossible for both parties to make profit -- by its very nature, it's a losing game.

I can help you out with this if this is still needed.
How many more articles do you need anyway?

hope you loved my article on setting up a coinbas account

Will get started on it tomorrow, had a pretty busy weekend :)
I'll get it proofread by a friend who happens to be a linguist (native speaker), pretty sure she'll do it for free.

No offense but that little snippet you created was pretty bad. One paragraph, 1000's of commas, tons of grammar/spelling issues and non-informative. There is no way I can use that material.

I need lots of articles. Basically an article for every topic to introduce people to bitcoin tech and bitcoin economic theory.

My goal is to find 2-3 decent writers and just give them all of the work/pay so I don't have to keep screening for new writers.

Great I look forward to it!

Still looking for help

I'm interested. I'm looking for some writing work, just a few questions -

Am I allowed to do multiple articles, for multiple payments? :3
Is there certain things I need to write about? Online wallets, the blockchain, mining?
Are you looking for us to provide some sort of tutorial, or just a sort of informative report?
How do I submit the article? Do I just simple PM it to you?
Do I need to format it? Using what? BBcode? HTML?

Please PM me. I'm sure we can work together.

Each useful and informative article receives its own payment. Tutorials are great. Word documents or text documents with a PM to the link is fine.

But if I can't use the article (poor spelling, grammar, copy-paste from somewhere else or not useful) then no payment.

lyth0s, though I applaud your initiative, I think there are better ways to help the Bitcoin community.

We have enough amateur level material out there. What we need are well produced materials like articles and videos.
Those cost money,there's no escaping that. Perhaps a crowdfunding campaign for a resource like you are proposing might help.

I'm just going for some of the basics. If you wanted to send a person you know to a website to actually learn how to buy and move bitcoins you probably wouldn't have a single good resource for them. That's what I'm aiming for.

People are stingy with their money and would not support crowdfunding something that will not provide them with an economic advantage, as unfortunate as that is.

I'm interested with your offer however, I desire anonimity in my articles. Can this be negotiated? Contact me at mynameisjeff@europe.com (credible account). I hope I will soon appear in your articles.

Well, you didn't reply to me.
I've a lot of experience with Bitcoin and I am willing to help you for your generous act. :D
Will you allow me to do so please?
For example, one of my articles are here:

Let me know if you are interested.
