Overview
BeginnersGuide.com is hiring free lance writers to create a series of simple yet practical iBriefs and iBooklets. There are thousands of topics available to select from.
iBriefs(TM)
An iBrief is a 1250-1500 word eArticle that is constructed around 5-7 subtopics. These sub-topics can be constructed around a Q/A format or a series of statements. The compensation is $50.00.
iBooklets(TM)
An iBooklet is a grouping of topics that cluster together to form a string of iBriefs that are organized in such way that they could be packaged into one single unit. However, they are written in such a way as to stand alone as separate topics also. The compensation is:
- 5 grouped articles at 6,250 - 7500 words - $300.00
- 12 grouped articles at 15,000 - 18,000 words - $750.00
- 20 grouped articles at 25,000 - 30,000 words - $1350
- 35 grouped articles at 43,750 - 50,000 words - $2,500
Bonus
- $50 for a writer referral that works out.
- $100 for 50 articles in one month.
General Guidelines for iBriefs:
- The writing style is straightforward, informative and simple. Not overly academic.
- The audience includes those interested in a quick introduction to a topic.
- Quick web research generates a lot of generic information on each topic.
- Each completed article will contain 4 to 7 sub-topics.
- Always start with a topic overview that frames or defined the topic.
- Outline the article against questions or statements that a curious person would like to have answered on that topic. You will need to create these questions or statements from the research you have done.
- Be sure to repeat the "topic term" throughout the articles.
- The goal is to be instructional and informational.
- Reference sources either in the copy or at the end of the article. No footnotes please.
- The final product needs to be ready to go into print. There will not be another editing step.
- It is important to follow the standardized formatting. See the samples for the format.
- Humor when possible.
- This must be original content. Be careful not to plagiarize.
- The article must be 1250-1500 words in length.
