Calling All Writers

Hello Devlounge community. I’m writing this post not as another site news update, not to annoy your feed reader with a cry for help, but a genuine and heartfelt need for additional writers. Devlounge has grown tremendously, and as we get closer to that 100,000 unique visitor mark, providing our visitors with fresh weekly content is a priority to us.

It hit me today while I was putting together the new authors index (finally) that we really have no authors. Ronalfy and myself anchor just about all of the posts, which makes it hard to service an entire design community with different content. There’s only so much you can write about in a given amount of time without recovering a topic you talked about just a few articles back. Prash has been busy getting some of his own projects off the ground to participate as well.

We are in need of a staff of 10 quality writers, who care about their readers and will put out new and original pieces as often as they can, to help ensure Devlounge remains a top contender in the design and development community. We’d like to hear from you if you are interested, but please seriously consider the amount of dedication you’ll be able to give to Devlounge before getting in touch with us. We’ve gone through many contributors who haven’t done much contributing, either because they forgot about the site or they have been just too busy.

If you are interested in joining the Devlounge team, please visit the contact page and drop me a line as soon as possible. Providing references to a current blog / site or things you have written will greatly help, because we like to see that you know what you’re talking about.

With your help we will continue to bring quality content to our visitors.

Thanks for reading.
Team DL

    I don’t think I’m quite up to scratch to contribute myself, but I think it would be great if you could pick some PHP developers from whoever volunteers - can’t seem to find any decent PHP blogs at “my level” these days.
