ATLANTA.COM IS NOW HIRING WRITERS AND REPORTERS FOR OUR NEWS/EDITORIAL
SECTIONS. VISIT US AT Atlanta.com

Atlanta.com is going local, however, we will still focus heavily on our
visitor and tourism portal. We are offering independent contractor home
based business opportunities for writers, reporters to produce articles
and content for our official Website Atlanta.com and the surrounding
areas. Below is a chart and categories along with our offer for payment
for these services.

You have two opportunities to be paid, one for pure content and the other
sales. You will be paid like we do for all our services based on the Gross
not the net. If the section/category you write for earns $100k in gross
advertising sales and you provide only content, we pay you $20k, if you
also sell all advertisers into the site, you will be paid an additional
30% or $50k. In other words, we pay you 20% for any and all advertising
that ends up in your section, which is sold by our in-house sales team.
Any sales that you make, you will be paid an additional 30% on top of your
20% - total 50%. We will consider exclusive category content, sales and
marketing agreements with everyone depending on their abilities and
motivations. You will be hired as an independent contractor and will be
responsible for your own expenses, which should be very low as a home
based internet business.

Atlanta.com, like many other Internet companies are simply moving in on
the opportunity to fill the gap of the decline of the newspaper industry,
due to high cost, limited circulation and the Internet as the replacement
for this and many other old traditional outdated Local Media. We are
simply eliminating everything that starts with letter "P",  except one
-"PROFIT" to run this successful business model, eliminated are Paper,
Paper Ink, Printing Presses, Postage, Paper Delivery Trucks, Petrol,
People, Paper, Property Communication Towers, Property Taxes, Property and
Buildings, etc, This is why we can share our profits with local
independent writers and reporters and offer this opportunity much more
than many other high overhead local and traditional medias would be able
to do.

Atlanta.com Compensation/Revenue Model based on gross advertising sales
We Offer 4 options

1. 50% gross to writer – If writer sells an ad as well as furnishes all
updated content within category, he / she writes for

2. 20% gross to writer – If our sales team sells an ad and writer just
provides content

3. Trade advertisement on Atlanta.com for writer providing content – If
the writer has a local business we will give them some free exposure on
the site in exchange for articles/blog posts. Example - This could be
weddings services, local fishing guides, high tech companies, including
e-commerce products / home based business of all types and descriptions.

4. Pay for content – $50 – $300 per article – our least favorite option
and will only be done in some cases. Note : All content generated for
Atlanta.com we either will own or have non-exclusive rights to use in
perpetuity. This is so Atlanta.com is fully protected and advertisers are
not harmed or lost.
