Create. Be Heard. Get Paid. Has nice ring to it & is a progressive new approach to journalism .... Am personally recommending it to talented friends & family and hope you'll also take advantage of this brand new opportunity if you've worked, or have always wanted to work, as a writer or photographer.
When you SIgn Up for Seed, you can view an updated list of available assignments. It's as if you've got a seat at the newsroom assignment desk (see: How it Works).
For example, they'll pay $25 for three surprising eco-friendly shots. If you're a photo buff, it's worth a shot.
The writing assignments give a word count, deadline – sometimes hours/sometimes weeks – and a price, anywhere from $10 for a quick piece to $300 for something more expansive.
You have to do the work up-front and there's no guarantee your work will be accepted by the network editors, but Seed has an online "Academy" loaded with tips and examples of content that pulls in an audience, so you can apply some of the same techniques.
Added bonus: It's a great way to get discovered, build a portfolio of published work and followers.
