High quality is not essential.

For web design I just want functional sites.

For website content if you can do the research, I can easily polish the English.


Hello,

I need help to develop about a dozen sites. You can focus on one theme or several.

http://kwiknfree.com
(helpful articles needed for numerous topics)

http://vitaminshelf.com
(Need to update design using new template posted at http://kwiknfree.com/web-design/template )

http://florence-and-italy.com
http://weddings-italian-style.com
(Need to list all appropriate hotel discount offers from Florence, Rome, and Venice)
(Need to set up page selling e-book of Italian recipes with PayPal interface.)

http://forumdale.com
(Moving to "forums" subfolder of http://starnectar.org )
(Outdated vBulletin forum. Considering switching to free InvisionBoard. Need the following features.)
I need a streamlined signup process that:
*requires only email address
*instantly suggests log-in (without reloading page) which user can edit if desired
*initial password automatically assigned and emailed
*anti-robot graphic that is easy to read
(The one used by vBulletin is not acceptable. I had to try 5 times before getting it right. A better one is used at http://betterwhois.com )
*audio version of anti-robot graphic for blind people
*i.e., the idea is that anyone can just (a) input email address (b) input anti-robot code (c) click "enter" and be registered.

Also, I need to set up an emagazine system. I am not sure whether this is better as a separate software. Ideally, registering for the forum would be the same as subscribing to the emagazine. However I also need 3 levels of membership: free, regular, and premium.

Not yet online:

freedompersonals.com
(Find and install dating software and site content)
(Also need links directory for other dating sites)

popocracy.com, etocracy.com, hamtrak.com, speedfocus.com
(General directories based on human-edited results from Google-type searches of the 100 most popular search themes)
(Preference given to sites that use flexible style code design and post return links.)

Webhosting-gallery.com, all-web-designers.com, healthsellers.com,
tropical-rainforest-conservation.org
(Specialized directories.)

beatablecasinos.com
(Lists of casinos offering cash incentives)

holisticbasics.org
holisticreview.com
(Natural and alternative medicine)

webcoolie.com
(Free forum for web designers and people doing other online jobs to find work and for people to find them. With a peer review system and standard fees for popular jobs.)

forumauction.com
(Forum-style auction where people can buy and sell anything)

EnzoPregno.org
(Website about a modern painter.)

etcx.com
(Selling gifts, handicrafts, batik clothing, jewelry, etc.)

dotrigger.com, nameboat.com, URLprospector.com
(An Enom reseller, and a place for people to buy and sell pre-owned URLs at reasonable prices, with unlimited free listing and efficient categorizing.)

titemail.com/tightmail.com
(A reseller for the secure email service http://luxsci.com )


I do not have a lot of money, and am not yet making money. I just want to risk a reasonable part of my savings to develop these websites.

I need 1-3 helpers to get a little work done each month. I propose to pay each $50 and then see how much he or she gets done. Then if and when I make any profit, I will of course offer more work and better pay for the best helpers. Also, I will expect a good helper to make good suggestions--not just to be told what to do.

Anyone interested? Please send a resume either formal or informal via "private message."

Thank you.

Excuse me, what do you mean by US$50/day, 1 day/month? Does it mean you want each work to be done within 1 day?

Thanks

Thank you for the reply lockup.

Well, what I meant to say was sort of, "Don't expect to take $50 and only do one hour of work."

You could follow any schedule. Just that the end of the month, you can show me "at least" one day's work.

Not long ago, I myself was happy to get a $25 copy writing job, and to spend 1 or 2 days doing it. What I wanted was a chance for long-term regular work. Ten people each paying me $100 per month to upgrade their websites. So now, to be one such client myself, is the least that I am hoping to supply.

I expect there are capable Americans in a similar situation that I was in, happy to "work at home" for extra money. Or perhaps people in other countries for whom $50 is a good week's wage. I need help but--with no money coming in yet--I can't afford to pay more. So that is why I am posting this ad.

Hello,

Here is a clarification of what I expect for "content writing":

I would want at least 4 pages of content for $50. I would expect that often, if you set out to make 4 pages, you will end with 6-8 pages by splitting them up. Good web pages are small, just 6-12 paragraphs or so.

I myself can not produce 4 pages of content in one day. But it can be done. This involves:

1. You must take some initiative. Pick your favorite topic from what is needed, as listed at
http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=504979

Visit similar websites to see what is popular. Suggest to me what pages to create. Generally I then will either approve your suggestions--or approve of different ideas inspired by your suggestions. Then you will be ready to work.

2. Generally you should expect to spend 1/2 to 1-1/2 hours surfing the web for similar content.

3. With discernment, you then "rewrite" the best information in your own words. A free automatic translator (many are available online) might speed up this process.
(To avoid copyright infringement, EVERY SENTENCE in your final version must be worded differently from any sentence in the original sources. You must also list all sources at the end of your text.)

4. Your text then must be pasted into my standard template, with proper use of <title>, <description>, <h1>, <h3>, and <h4> codes. My template is here:

Instructions are here:

I would be interested in this job but I have no resume. If you are still interested, give me a test to see if I qualify. Send me a pm if interested!

I would be interested in this job but I have no resume. If you are still interested, give me a test to see if I qualify. Send me a pm if interested!Sure. But it is up to you, if interested, to take the initiative.
Look over the site plans listed in message #1 above.
Visit my sites (if online) and similar sites to get ideas about what you can do.
Send me a PM, listing the first projects you would like to do for $50.

(But it might also help to PM me first with an informal resume. Just tell me who you are, age, where you live, what you like to do. Then maybe I can make more specific suggestions, so that you spend less time.)
