COMPANY/PUBLICATION: QUICKNODE 

QUICKNODE AUTHORSHIP PROGRAM

Write for QuickNode

Share your knowledge and get paid, while participating in one of the fastest adopted technologies the world has ever seen!

The QuickNode Authorship Program is a way for you to support the web3/blockchain ecosystem by writing technical content and getting paid to do it!

As with any open source technology, high quality technical content is the bedrock of adoption. New developers in the space need thorough tutorials and guides to onboard and orient themselves with. Your content will help us grow the ecosystem's knowledge base and make it easier for those who follow in your footsteps, to do so with confidence.

THE PROCESS

• Apply with a topic/proposal using the Typeform at the bottom of this page.
• Once your proposal is accepted, our editors will get in touch and help you refine your title and outline. We will also decide on the mechanisms of the payout at this stage.
• We will pay you $350 for each post published.
• Write: We will share writing guidelines and templates for you to look at while you write. Our editors will also be available to help you along the way.
• Once the draft is finalized, we will publish the article on our website. Every post will have your bio along with relevant information about you.
• We will make the payment as we had agreed in the acceptance phase. We will also feature your article in our social media and newsletter.

WHAT TO WRITE ABOUT

At this time, we are excited about and especially looking for content on Ethereum, Polygon, Binance Smart Chain, and Solana. Some examples of content can include but are not limited to:

• How to integrate web3 (web3.js, ethers.js, solana-py, ether-py, anchor) libraries with front-end frameworks (React, Vue, Svelte, Angular) to build practical applications/dashboards.
• Introductions to web3 frameworks in various languages, walking users through common workflows and methods.
• How to use common Solidity projects.
• In-depth technical articles about how to stitch multiple web3 technologies together.

Please see https://www.quicknode.com/guides for examples of what we have published in the past. Please note that we do not publish or cross-post articles that have appeared elsewhere. We will do due-diligence to ensure that all content is original and does not violate any copyright.

If you have a non-technical topic you'd like to write about, it might be a great fit for our blog! Submit your information marketing@quicknode.com instead to contribute more general, web3 industry content to our QuickNode blog.

WHO SHOULD APPLY:

Writers who are passionate about web3! The web3 space is an amazing space full of wonderful creators, and we encourage all of them to contribute to the community through written technical content.

If you are new to the space, this is an opportunity for you to get paid to learn. If you can articulate complex technical concepts while you learn about them, you will be the best person to teach that concept to someone brand new such as yourself. You don't have to know everything, you just need to know more than the person reading your tutorial.
