Blogtrepreneur Is Hiring!
For the past few weeks, I’ve been taking more of an administrative role here at Blogtrepreneur. I’m sure most of you will have noticed that my posting frequency has dropped over recent months due to a combination of offline factors.
I’ve been really fortunate to have Steven Snell from Vandelay Design on board so far, and he has consistently been posting every Tuesday. So far, I havn’t really had a chance to welcome him to the community, but I want to thank him for all his hard work so far!
As a single post every week isn’t enough to sustain a successful blog, I’ve decided to search for some new writing talent to improve the posting frequency here, and to really take things to the next level. So if you are interested, please use my contact form to get in touch.
All you need to send me when applying are links to some of your writings (knowledge of blogs and Wordpress in particular is preferable although not compulsory) and reasons as to why you would make a great addition to the Blogtrepreneur team.
Please note that this is a paid position and I will state prices once I’ve taken a look at some of your publishings. Other benefits will include a dedicated author’s page and the availability to link-back to your posts, sites in your articles and having the chance to improve your brand and image to over 1000 RSS readers!
Where Are You Going, Adnan?
I thought that some of you might ask that question, but I’m still going to be here, as usual keeping an eye on Blogtrepreneur. In terms of posting, I’ll still be posting whenever and wherever possible, but the added content will mean that I will feel less bad if I don’t manage to post anything in a week!
For those who have always been opposed to guest posting, the statistics would say otherwise, as I havn’t posted for a couple of weeks, and Steven has still managed to boost traffic and subscribership levels. I will always make sure that posts will be of the highest quality, but as mentioned, I will still be here keeping alive the Blogtrepreneur spirit!
A Redesign Is On The Way
I just wanted to end this brief post with news that Blogtrepreneur will be undergoing a major shift in design. I’ve managed to rope in the skills of Connor Wilson yet again to come up with a formidable template, and one which will definitely blow your socks off.
You can expect to see a shiny new mascot, some Javascript beauty and an amazing colour scheme. As usual, it’s onwards and upwards for us entrepreneurs.
What Have You Been Doing Recently?
It’s been a while since I’ve had the chance to catch up with both long-time and new readers, so what have you guys been doing recently online and offline. Have you managed to break any New Year goals yet? I’d love to hear from you in the comments.
It`ll be sad not to see that much of you anymore, but I fully support this decision.
You`ve established this site so well, and now it`s time for you to outsource your content so you can make the best use of your time. Plus it sounds like you`re busy!
Although you won`t be here often, please do keep alive the spirit. It`s probably the biggest challenge in hiring others to write for the site. Something several of the top blogs have been doing; like ProBlogger and Copyblogger.
Keep up the good work,
Hafiz Dhanani
Adnan,
I’m happy to be part of your team and looking forward to the growth here.
Sorry to hear you’ll be writing less and less, but I guess it’s better then not writing at all. I’m pretty confident you’ll successfully continue to lead blogtrepreneur to great heights, from the shadow. I’d definitely like to help out with some regular posts on the blog, but sadly I currently don’t have the time; I barely manage writing 1 post a week on my blog. Maybe after I get through my exams in the summer I might extend a hand, if the offer’s still on of course.
Thanks Hafiz for your support and understanding. Inevitably, bigger blogs are going to get more and more busy with comments, moderation, and writing top-notch articles takes some time. If you’re a full-time blogger then this is OK, but for most of us, blogging part-time can be hard to do and demanding on the little time you have.
Steven - it’s been a pleasure to work with you, and I’ll be emailing you today about the new direction and design for Blogtrepreneur!
@ Tibi: yeah exactly, I know that the readers here would prefer content from others, rather than no content at all! We would love to have you as a poster, so please get in touch and we can sort something out for the summer.
Will do
I haven’t broken my new year goals, but I have’nt achieved them either. Good to see you back and hope to see you more regularly.

There is no contact form………..
Contact page worked fine for me.
It’s working fine for me too Eva. Click on this link, and tell me if it still doesnt work.
I fully support this decision, and I have a feeling that you’ll manage to execute it properly. I know of some other blogs that have hired authors, and then the quality of their sites dropped down to nothing. But you’re a great writer and I’ve always loved this blog, and that of Steven Snell too - so I don’t see the quality of this site going down anytime soon.
I’ve always been interested in a writing position such as this, but I don’t always even have a hold on my own content or schedule all the time, so I know that it wouldn’t be something I could manage right now. I need to work on getting my own blog secure first. However, if you ever need a one-time guest poster or a quick fix, let me know!
