Editing For $$$
So I tried to get my long island princess to become an editor for BOTW. The pay is the usual fifty cents for every site added. I was happy to hear that she was interested in the gig and hoped this would give her the opportunity to earn that extra cash she often complains of not having. So we set her up with a user name and password and thought it would be a good idea to let her start with adding EDU sites. I informed her of our guidelines, site criteria for inclusion, and even gave her a quick demo of the editor interface.
She added about twelve sites in an hour and decided that it was taking too long. I informed her that with most new experiences, it takes time to get comfortable with the environment and editing will get easier with every site added.
It probably takes new editors a good three hours before they can add fifty sites per hour. Some of our staff editors can add about two hundred quality sites in an hour! If you do the math, that's some pretty good coin being made! We screen all sites that hired editors add to ensure that minimum criteria is being met. If it is not, the sites are placed on 'hold' and the editor is contacted with constructive criticism. As always, we try to keep editors motivated by rewarding bonuses when they have reached milestones like adding 1,000 sites.
Needless to say, my gf vowed to give it another try. Yea, it's good to be a BOTW editor. Help build a valuable resource and get paid. If anyone is interested, send an email here. Previous editing experience with a web directory is a big plus.
