We Want to Hear From You – Contributors Needed!

January 1, 2010 in BeDeviant.com,Blogging with 12 Comments

2010 is the year of blogging.
It’s also the year of collaboration here at BeDeviant.com.
This call won’t be for everyone, but it will be for a few.

We’re asking for collaborators to guest post on a semi-regular basis here on the site. If you like to write and have a love for culture, faith, technology or all three, now’s your chance to join the community here at BeDeviant as a contributor.

You don’t need to have your own blog, although it would be great if you did (more link juice for you). The process to apply is simple:

  1. Go to Gravatar.com and sign up. You’ll want a gravatar for the future anyway, but it’s what we use to show the world your mug at the bottom of your posts.
  2. Register at BeDeviant.com as an author.
  3. Once you register, your username and password will be sent to the email address you provide.
  4. Use those credentials to login.
  5. Fire away!

While we can’t guarantee every article written will get published, if you’re passionate about your topic it will shine through people will want to read your stuff. That’s publishable material.

What you will get if your article is published:

  • Exposure to the BeDeviant community with a chance to build a community of your own.
  • An opportunity to explore the intersections of culture, faith and technology.
  • A chance to challenge others to “think differently” about the world around them.
  • Some Deviant swag throughout the year. The more you’re published, the more stuff you get!

Take the next step in your blogging journey and join the team here at BeDeviant.com. Build your voice. You’ll get to be a part of a growing and influential community while having your articles read by the hundreds of people who stop by here daily.

Think about it. Act on it. Any questions? Shoot me an email.

    Great idea. I can't promise a post every week, but that's not expected. I look forward to sharing my thoughts with this community.

    How did you set it up for people to register?

  6. Justin Wise January 6, 2010 at 4:55 pm #

    It's a setting under “General” on your WP dashboard. You have to click “Anyone can register”. Then point people to http://yoursite/wp-register.

    Let me know if that works!
