    FanRag Sports - Your Source For Sports and it's network of sites are looking to add great content for NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL, college sports, MMA, boxing, WWE and everything in between.

    Our sites:

    TodaysFastbreak.com - NBA
    TodaysKnuckleball.com - MLB
    TodaysPigskin.com - NFL
    TodaysU.com - College Sports
    TodaysKnockout.com - Combat sports (MMA, boxing, WWE, health and fitness)
    TodaysSlapshot.com - NHL

    We have soccer coverage as well and are open to adding to other sports at FanRagSports.com. Every writer on our site is paid for their work, per story.

    Availability on weekends is a definite plus. Work load is dependent on what your availability is, but there are deadlines and we need consistency. No writing experience required, but we are looking to add solid writing. It's a competitive field.

    If interested, please inquire by sending a resume and writing samples to stokke@fanrag.com.

    How much are you willing to pay per story?

    Revenue sharing most likely. Pass.

    It's not revenue sharing. Every single writer at FanRag Sports is paid a competitive flat-fee per story regardless if it gets one read or 100,000 reads.

    Again, please reach out via email with resumes and writing samples if interested and we will get into more details then. Thanks for all of your interest. We are looking forward to bringing great writers aboard.

    With how secretive you are, can't imagine it's much.

    I also sent an email with three or four clips and a resume. Hopefully, it wasn't a complete waste of my efforts.

    Site filling an underserved market. I'm sure it will be a success.

    No response in two weeks, guess they don't want to follow through or they figure I might want more money than they are willing to pay. Nah, probably not serious.
