An Opportunity for Tech Enthusiasts
If you find yourself constantly immersed in the latest technology updates, there is now an opportunity to transform that interest into a professional pursuit. BGR is actively seeking freelance writers to contribute to its coverage of the diverse tech landscape, spanning everything from mobile devices and computing hardware to advancements in artificial intelligence and industry-wide trends.
The publication is searching for candidates who possess strong writing skills, a deep curiosity, and the ability to translate complex technical stories for a broad audience. Successful applicants will join a team that values clear communication and deep insight.
Compensation and Workflow
BGR offers flexible compensation structures, allowing contributors to choose between an hourly rate or a per-word payment model. Depending on the candidate's professional experience, the pay scales are as follows:
- Hourly rate: $21 – $25 per hour
- Per-word rate: $0.08 – $0.10 per word
Furthermore, compensation covers not only the initial trial article but also the onboarding and training process. One notable benefit is the removal of the traditional "pitching" hurdle; a dedicated team curates daily assignments, allowing writers to select the topics that interest them most.
Flexibility and Collaboration
As a fully remote position under Static Media, writers have the freedom to work from any location they choose. The role also accommodates varying schedules, whether you are looking for part-time work of 10 to 20 hours or a full-time commitment of 40 hours per week.
A central pillar of the BGR editorial culture is the collaborative relationship between editors and writers. The company emphasizes a "light touch" approach to editing, ensuring that the writer's unique voice remains prominent while maintaining high editorial standards.
Consistent Opportunities
For those seeking stability in the freelance market, BGR offers a reliable stream of work. Many contributors have maintained long-term roles with the publication, finding a level of consistency that is often rare in freelance journalism. While the editorial team provides daily assignments, they remain open to pitches from writers who have unique story ideas.
«We are looking for enthusiastic, curious, experienced writers with a strong grasp of the English language who can make sense of these stories and explain them to a wide audience,» the team notes regarding their ideal candidate profile.
