  • Does anyone have the email address you need to email to get paid. I logged in earlier and didn't make a note of the email and now it's not showing it again! It's only about £15 but every little helps!

    Hi, i think this means that you need to give some keywords relating to the type of review/place you have reviewed. eg, if you have reviewed an italian restaurant, the tags would be maybe "restaurant" "food" "Italian" etc.:D

    Looks like a good site.

    We also recruit writers for web content, although we're a little bit different to Helphound. Our sites are travel-specific, mostly about places of interest (tourist attractions, etc.)

    Our freelancers earn anything from around £50 a month (those doing only a little each month) to, in a couple of cases, over £2k a month (admittedly they are the exception, rather than the norm - they put in more than 40 hours a week!). A few hundred £ is common for those doing a modest amount of work on top of their day job.

    We normally pay monthly but for new freelancers we tend to make more frequent payments at first, just so a trust can be established. We understand that people can be a little hesitant about working for someone at first and so this system of regular invoicing/payments hopefully gets round this issue in the early days of working together.

    If this sounds like it's of interest to you, feel free to drop me a PM.
