Bass Player/Writers Wanted

myBass.net is looking for bass players who want to write monthly articles on any subject related to bass guitar and bass playing.

In return they will give you and/or your band plugs, links, and reviews and full access to myBass's network of affliates and allies.

Please contact webmaster@mybass.net if you are interested.

Hate to be a jerk, but most places pay writers for their work, even if it's a small amount like $500. And I don't think anyone wants their name on the spam list in return with all your affiliates.

Sweeten the pot.

1) It's not my site.
2) Everyone doesn't do everything for money.
3) Everyone who writes a couple of paragraphs isn't getting $500
4) What spam list?

1) My bad
2) They should
3) Standard magazine article length to a standard magazine
4) 'Network affiliates and allies' represents all that is evil and wrong with the internet today. At one time, the internet WAS the information age. Now it's over-run by advertising and 'companies' that have no product to sell, no assets, and no source of steady income. The internet is now a collection of portal-potties and active-x/shockwave/java sleazy marketing scemes. All this garbage tied together into sites linked together are 'affiliate programs,' just schemes to rake in advertising dollars.
5) My anger is directed @ mybass.com, not you then ^_^, sorry.

The site is mybass.net

And the site is devoted to bass players and bass guitars.

There's little money involved because they don't want to be another corporate site that's really only interested in money.

P.S.
My friend owns the site and it is just (bass is) a passion in his life.

Both of his companies (web site names held here because it would be spam) are quite profitable and don't deal with affiliates.

I'll do it. SaveAHo is full of crap. Not everything is about money and not everything is a scam.

Thanks Beowulf

P.S.
Good work on Grendel.

Negatory, the site IS ALL about the money. Banner ads and links to amazon.com slathered all over the front page. I fail to see how that is love of bass guitar.

That's called paying for web hosting, contests, giveaways, programming, etc. etc.

No profit envolved.
