Hello everyone, hope you had a good weekend. If you missed them over the weekend check out Finding blog gigs – starting out with no clips and How to get a blogging job – advice from Deb Ng of FWJ.
Not too many gigs today – hopefully things pick up by Wednesday. You can also check out Deb’s job listings if you like.
Anywhere gigs:
Sustainable Technology and Design Blogger – kind of lowish pay unless you know the topic very well and work fast, then it’s ok.
Sports Blogger/Reporter (Experience Required)
Blogger at Task FM – I swear I saw this listing a few weeks ago – did anyone here apply? When people re-post so fast it makes me think they’re non-paying…
New fine jewelry website set to go live this fall is looking for freelance writers for snappy, smart, humorous description and editorial for our jewelry. Think Sex In The City meets Daily Candy.
News editor for media startup – Start up, so not sure if paid
Location specific gigs:

I applied to the task.fm gig when it came up a few weeks ago. Never heard back (even after a follow up email) after the owner asked me to quote a rate.
I quoted $30 per 300-500 word post.
Task.fm did end up hiring another blogger who gets his own byline. Not sure if he gets paid.
In my opinion, it wouldn’t hurt to apply.
Thanks for the info Chris and Samar. I hate when I keep seeing gigs pop up, I wonder what’s up with them. Like those Internet Brands listings that are everywhere. Hmmm.
I applied for the task.fm gig. I’ll let you know if I get a response.
