Job description

Site Expert - Swarm and Sting (Charlotte Hornets)

Remote-Based Roles · Contractor · Site Expert

About The Opening

FanSided is looking to add a new Site Expert to join our team at Swarm and Sting, our site dedicated to the Charlotte Hornets.

Our site experts are asked to focus their efforts on building a vibrant community environment around the Hornets while providing readers with fresh daily content. We want our site experts to be viewed as the most knowledgeable on their respective fandom and we want to ensure that we're offering readers a healthy mix of news and opinionated analysis. Providing something viewers can't read elsewhere is the key.

We offer plenty of advice and support but it will ultimately be up to you (and your co-expert, where applicable) to decide how to strategize your content efforts.

Site Experts are compensated based on a combination of the total traffic accrued by their articles and the overall traffic of the site each calendar month. The rates may vary depending on the traffic, the experience of the expert, and the site itself.

Requirements

• Site Experts are asked to lead a site that publishes multiple pieces of daily content. This content can range from news stories, analysis pieces, viral discussions, and more. The site expert will produce the majority of the posting requirements and will be supported by other contributors on the site.
• Site Experts are asked to support the contributors on their team by editing their articles, offering feedback as needed, and suggesting topic ideas.
• Site Experts are asked to help with the site’s social media accounts (typically Twitter and Facebook) by sharing articles and creatively engaging with other fans.
• Site Experts must be able to write clearly and effectively in English.
