"Lakelubbers.com needs a few part-time lake writers to help build our database of USA lakes during 2008, then worldwide in 2009. You'll work from home, when you have time available, as an independent contractor. Our writers typically work about 15 hours per week to produce 5-6 new lake write-ups, but you can work less if you wish. If you meet the qualifications below, please see "How to Apply".

I checked out this opportunity last night. It looks like a great way to make some extra cash. They don't tell you how much they pay on the website. With the internet, the work would be so easy. You simply research, and write an article about the available lakes.

To work this job, you will need to have good research skills and good writing skills. It looks like they will be needing people this year, and next year when they go worldwide.

Qualifications:

• Excellent spelling, grammar, and writing skills are required.
• Your internet research skills must be very good. We will help you to improve your lake-specific research skills.
• You must pay careful attention to details. We need a high level of accuracy in our lake listings and require that you never violate copyrights.
• You must have a high speed internet connection, because this job requires extensive research via the web.

There are some very exciting things happening behind the scenes here at Corporate Eye. We’re soon going to be expanding the range and scale of our services, and are recruiting people to help us with this.

At the moment we’re looking for a blogger with an interest in corporate media relations, who can write about good examples of best practices in the media section of corporate websites. We're mostly interested in the major listed companies (FTSE100, FTSE250, S&P500, Eurotop300 etc) but if a smaller company is doing something interesting in their Media section, we'd like you to write about it.

We’ll be looking for 2-3 posts per week, each of 500-800 words, and plan to pay US$20/£10 per post, monthly by PayPal. We’ll also post a mini-bio with a link to your own site if appropriate (we need to be sure our links out are work-appropriate because of our audience).

Each post should fall into one of the following categories:

discussion of tools or techniques used by companies,

comparison of how different companies handle media relations on the internet

discussion of the issues faced by companies with respect to media relations on their sites.

If you have ideas for other material, we’d be pleased to hear them.

Each post should contain a link to the site under discussion, and at least one image, ideally a screenshot of a relevant page on that corporate site. We like to use Snag-It for this, but this would be up to you. In case it matters to you: we use WordPress.

To apply, please tell us why you think youd be an ideal candidate for this; send us links to previous work; and an on-topic sample post if your previous work doesnt cover that area. If your sample post is suitable, well post it - and pay for it - whether or not your application is successful.

If this role interests you, do get in touch via jobs@corporate-eye.com.
