I'll write some articles, but I'd like to know how much you're willing to pay. I'm knowledgeable about the technical aspects of bitcoin, so how-to's, guides, or any general bitcoin news is right up my alley. I'm willing to write some trial pieces; let me know if you're interested.

Thank you for your interest.

I have outlined our pay rates below. In order to get paid for articles you must first submit a topic. If the topic is approved you will be sent a reply notifying you that it was approved.

The bulk share of articles on our website will be donations from experienced authors. The only articles we will approve as paid content are those which are integral information truly beneficial to newcomers to bitcoin. For example: "how to set up your Antminer S1" would not get approved as a paid article, however  "10 ways to protect your hot wallet" including what a hot wallet is & how it differs from cold storage, WOULD probably be approved for a paid article.

All articles must be in clear English and professionally written, articles which are poorly written will be returned from our new editor known on this forum by TheButterZone. Returned articles will not be published, and if the topic was approved for paid content, you will need to make the necessary revisions and re-submit it before payment will be approved.

All articles will be fact checked, and checked for plagiarism and copyright. Furthermore all articles must be submitted with a publication agreement form.


------------------------------ Pay Rates ---------------------------

All articles must be a minimum of 400 words.

The first 100 words are not paid, after 100 words the pay rate is $5 per 200 words rounded to the nearest 50 words.

For example, if you are approved for a topic and write a 500 word article you will be paid $10.

Photographs accompanying the article will be paid @ a rate of $5 and must be original photographs in which you hold the copyright for.

----------------------------------------------------------------------


As a reminder, paid articles are few and far between. We do have a budget for paid content but in the scheme of things it is small. We have reserved the bulk of our funding for marketing, advertising & spreading awareness about bitcoin.
