The FanSided Network – this site’s parent company and the fastest growing independent sports network on the Internet – is looking to add an Editor to our staff here at Puckett’s Pond. We’re also looking for some additional Staff Writers. The openings we currently have are described in more detail below.
The expectations we ask of our Editors are high, but the position is also eligible for revenue sharing provided they meet certain requirements. Joining the network also lets us offer some great opportunities for exposure and a chance to build your personal portfolio and resume. There are a host of other non-monetary benefits to joining our team and this network:
> FanSided’s custom site design
> Complete technical support
> Programs to help coach and educate our writers
> A growing community of talent baseball writers
> Exclusive content partnerships to promote your work, notably an agreement with SportsIllustrated.com
> A network-wide preference to promote from within
> SEO experience
> Your content linked to from our 200+ sites
Anyone interested in applying for one of our openings or curious to know more about the expectations we ask of our writers, please complete our online application. We’ll be in touch from there.
Our current openings here at PP, and some of the expectations that come with the positions, are as follows:
Editor
> Contribute at least 30 posts a month (more is always welcomed)
> Help promote the site and drive traffic
> Manage the staff and The Hub
> Maintain the site’s social media accounts
Staff Writer
> Contribute 1-2 posts a week (again, more is always welcomed)
> Help promote the site and drive traffic
Please note that our SW position is an unpaid role, but the non-monetary benefits we mention above still will apply.
