   Interested in Paid Freelance Writing about MMOs?
  Hello,I am the managing editor of the MMO channel on the technology web site Bright Hub. I am looking for a couple more writers who are interested in paid, freelance writing opportunities. On the MMO channel, we write previews, reviews, guides, analytical articles, industry articles, general MMO articles, etc. We have a good relationship with developers and publishers, and often get pre-release information to examine and write about. We are not beholden to any specific game advertisers, so you can write your real opinion and analysis. That is a rare thing in the gaming media.Most articles are 2-4 pages long, with about 400 words per page. The pay is $10 per article up front, and 80% of the advertising revenue share your article generates indefinitely. Once you build up a nice bunch of articles, the residual revenue share is a nice chunk of change for past work! The MMO channel has multiple deadlines per month, and we try to be flexible with writers. Freelance writing is a pretty easy way to make some nice money on your own schedule from your own home.If you are interested, please send me a PM here or an email to mhartman@editors.brighthub.comThanks,   
  I hope you don't take offense, but what is this Bright Hub website trying to be exactly? I see articles ranging from fitness tips and acccounting advice to video game walkthroughs and lists of ship classes. And if I may say so, they vary widely in quality.On your (or your employer's) writers wanted page, I read that it's one of the writer's responsibilities to "promote and grow the popularity of articles through leveraging recommended search keywords and phrases and obtaining quality backlinks to written articles.", which I translate as pressing the potential authors to include as many keywords as possible and then go around spamming links to the articles. And I'm afraid to say that your posts on GameDev, which I hadn't come across before, reflect those very requirements.I'm not saying you can't promote and make money with your writings. Many websites do it. But I would be more sympathetic if the focus would be on producing quality articles, rather than generating content to tie the advertisements together.Just saying.   ;  It is trying to be a site focused on technology related subjects.As for the writer responsibilities, keyword stuffing is HEAVILY discouraged. The promotion via backlinks is done by working with bloggers, software developers, etc. to generally help get interesting topics discussed.The articles on the site are of very high quality, with expert writers in their fields managing the various channels. I offered the opportunity to people here because it is a nice way to make some money on the site, writing about a subject you already love, on your own schedule.
