Blog Writer / Web Research for Wordpress Travel Site

Hello and thank you very much for reading this. My name is Todd and I live and work in Las Vegas, NV, USA. I am in the process of building an informational travel site for my city and I need some assistance. I am currently developing the backend of the site in association with other colleagues but I am looking for 1 or more individuals who can help us with a series of tasks, the following should help explain:

Las Vegas has numerous Hotels, Casinos, Restaurants, Live Shows, Tourist Attractions and more. We have begun to create Wordpress pages for many of these and I need someone who can gather specific information about these business through web searches. This would be information such as: Address, website, pictures, video links, reviews. In addition to this info I would need you to write a simple 1 paragraph description describing the business in a positive way. This cannot just be copied off another site, it must be original content written by you.

Candidates must possess:

*Wordpress skills – This means you can navigate Wordpress well enough to quickly and efficiently add or edit data.

*Excellent English skills – The site is going to be visited by many people who speak English as their first language. I need someone who can write with correct grammar and punctuation as well as recognize these kinds of issues in others writings.

*Fast – What I mean by this is most of the information I will be asking you to seek out is readily available through Google searches. While I don’t want someone who is going to rush and make mistakes, I have many entries to complete so I need someone who is efficient and produces quality work.

*Detail oriented/familiar with Excel – The person/people who are chosen for this will also be asked to keep a master spreadsheet of all the entries and update it as the pages are updated – this lets me keep track of progress as well as have a master contact sheet at the end of the project.

If this interests you and you can start immediately please respond to this email with the title: Data Compiling & Blog Writing Candidate ‘last name – first name’
(please replace last name and first name with your actual name).

I will respond to candidates who I feel have appropriate skillsets over the next 2-3 days with a simple task to see if you are a good fit.

Whether you decide to apply for this position or not, thank you so very much for your time and attention and have a wonderful day!

-Todd
