Arrow Wanted: Members Interested in Helping List Locales --> $ - 07-19-2011, 11:07 AM


Hey there guys!

Pay:
  • $5 per thread
  • Will pay in increments of $25 via paypal

Requirements:
  • Create a thread listing for cool photo op locations from around the country.
  • Short quick write up about the locale, experience and such.
  • Minimum 1-3 photos.
  • Must get approval from me on your suggestions prior to posting.
  • You can use your personal logo/watermark on the images.
  • No Maximum on number of threads per week.
  • Places of interest: Ball parks, attractions, landmarks, scenic spots, ghost towns, etc.

Example Locale Listings:
Example Photo:





How to Apply:

If you're interested please send me a Private Message with these details below.

Thank you for your time.

Questions Asked:

Why aren't you paying as much as Daniel and his Food Reviews?

Because I am asking for you to create threads using photos and information you ALREADY have (and may have already posted here on the forum) from past photo walks, vacations, etc. No need to write a review or relabel your images with our logo etc.


How will I be paid?

After you complete 5 approved thread listings, simply send me a PM linking me to them then I'll Paypal you the funds. I'd like to keep it at a minimum of 5 threads prior to being paid since that'll make it easier for me to keep track of.


How many can I post?

As of now I have no set limit. You just need to confirm your list with me first. I can say this is to get our LOCALES database built up and get it off to a good start so once that is done this incentive may be cut back.


How do I know what format to post it in?

I will post the go-by thread listing text in the following post.


Pfffttt!! $5 a thread is too cheap for me, will you pay more?

No. $5 is the price paid. I dont think thats too bad a deal since if you already have the photos it may take say 5 minutes to post up the new thread with the required info. Say if you post up 6 threads in an hour that translates to $30/hour. If it's still not doable for you then I completely understand, no problem, I'm sure there will be others that are interested in participating.

Thanks!

How to post Locale Threads:

When creating a new thread be sure to select the post icon to signify that the thread is a Locale Listing.


Title of the thread should be:

City: Location Name


example:

San Francisco: Golden Gate Bridge

PHP Code:
[B]Name of Place[/B]
Adress
City
State Zip
Phone 
Wesite Addy

[B]Price Paid:[/BPrice
[B]Date Visited:[/BDate

Thanks Abel.

Hmmm, can this be retroactive for all the threads I created in the Houston section when I closed ShootHouston down?

What does "minimum 1-3" mean?
