Freelance writing, Outdoorzy.com, topic: "outdoors"/ sports/ photography/ travel, pays $20 per article (anywhere)

Description

When you’re not blogging, do you spend your spare time outdoors involved in your favorite activities like hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, backpacking, trail running, climbing, biking, paddling or playing in the water dirt or snow? Outdoorzy.com redesigning their site and is looking for bloggers who are personally involved in the outdoor activities that they will be writing about. Our blog includes a huge range of outdoors activities and sports. We are seeking bloggers who can write about these topics with the tone of someone who loves doing what they do. We appeal to a broad range of skill levels in each of our categories – so applicants to write about climbing, for example, need not be expert mountaineers. In each section, we will be asking for articles to help beginners get started, and also for articles that appeal to seasoned outdoorsmen (and women!).

Our blog covers a broad range of topics, all “outdoorzy”:

- Camping & Hiking
- Fishing
- Winter/Snow Sports
- Hunting
- Water Sports
- Climbing
- Biking/Cycling
- Running
- Travel
- Outdoor Photography
- Adventure Racing
- Outdoor Survival
- Off Roading (Jeeps, 4x4’s etc)
- Gardening/Outdoor Living

If you are chosen as a blogger, we will start by determining which topic(s) you will be writing about, and we will provide you with specific article topics. However, you are the experts in doing what you love, so we will always welcome story ideas for consideration.

If you love the outdoors and love to write, please apply. For new bloggers, we will pay $20 per article to start with the opportunity for pay advancement in the future. Please note that we will not be able to respond to every application. You will only get a response back if we feel you are a good fit for our team.
