If you would like to have a post published on Pro Blog Design, we’d be delighted! All authors will be given full credit for their work, including a link back to their site, and up to $125 per post (Minimum rate is $70, read on for more info!).
Important: You must read the 2 short documents; Writing Process (Includes how to get your payment, how to submit your post, and technical details) and Writing Guidelines (Rules on formatting that are necessary to be published).
Topics We’d Like To See
We’re really looking for in-depth discussions of various web design topics. That includes researching certain aspects of the job, giving an opinion on a popular debate, and writing tutorials and guides for learning new skills.
In terms of the topics; anything that fits in the topic of design or blog modifications. Take a look at the sorts of posts published here, and you’ll get a feel for the topic. Some examples would include:
- WordPress tips and tricks.
- Design theory and advice.
- JavaScript (Including JQuery etc.) tutorials.
- Resource posts, e.g. Tools to use, useful plugins etc.
- PHP coding articles.
How It Works
- Authors are given credit for their work. At the end of each post is an About the Author section. Here you can place a picture, a short blurb (Up to 140 characters), and a link back to your site.
- Articles may be edited. Please don’t be offended if we suggest changes, fix grammar, add links etc. However, no major changes will be made without your approval. It’s still your post.
- Articles must be unique. It cannot have been published elsewhere previously, and once the payment has been made, ownership of the article passes to Pro Blog Design. It cannot be re-published elsewhere.
- Payments are made per post. The exact amount will depend on the quality of the post, but we’ll agree on a rate for you before each article is published. The minimum payout is $70. Some of the things that would influence the decision are the length of the post and complexity/uniqueness of the topic.
- On top of that, you can claim an extra $5 if you reply to 3 comments on your post within 48 hours of it being posted. Details on how to claim your payment are in Writing Process document (Email me if you need it in another format)
Follow The Guidelines!
- The idea is everything – The topic of your post is the most crucial part. I’ll pay for posts where a reader will learn something new, something that they really want to know. Or posts that will solve a problem users commonly run into. If there isn’t a clear purpose to the post, or if its too basic, it’s not likely to make it.
- Must be related to design or coding – Ideally, your post should be design-related. Posts about working with WordPress are fine, but this isn’t a blogging blog. I’ve had to draw the line here a few times, so if you’re unsure if your idea is right for the blog, email me.
- Formatting And Writing Rules – IMPORTANT: The post must follow the rules set down in the Writing Guidelines document.
