Automotive Blogger Wanted

Automoblog.net is looking for a Automotive Blogger:

We’re looking for a freelance writer who loves cars. We write about all types of vehicles, but focus on enthusiasts.

Who we need is someone creative and innovative that can create more than your typical news-style blog post. We need great articles that attract attention – how to’s, opinions, reviews, top lists, exclusive content, interviews, and so on.

- The blogger should have an exciting and entertaining writing style.

- We need someone who’s really dedicated to great content and great cars – not someone just banging out articles one after another for the paycheck.

- Must be familiar with Wordpress and general SEO practices.

- Personally interested in cars

The right person won’t need to be told what to write about each day, and you’ll have complete creative control over your articles. I’m not going to nanny you or give strict rules.

Examiners are local insiders with solid writing skills who desire to share their knowledge with others. They have their own page on our website complete with a photo and a bio which may also include links to their personal blog/site. As a result of their articles, Examiners often gain invitations to attend special events, requests to review products or services, offers to be quoted in the media as the local expert, and other doors of opportunity may open up. Your portfolio on Examiner.com can help you establish your expertise and brand.
