Blog Site Official Launch!

edited February 2017 in Update


Hi to all,

As you all know, PinoyAU.info has been around since 2009. From a small member of 10, we now have more than 20k members and has been the number 1 "go-to" information source of Filipinos migrating and living in Australia.

As a thank you, we have decided to officially launch the Blog platform. Unlike other groups, we never thought of charging anything to members, the site will remain a kawang gawa that will bring out the true "Bayanihan" of Pinoys in Australia.

This new blog platform has two aims.
(1) Encourage members to inspire other members
(2) Provide some passive income to article writers as a compensation.

You can check out the Blog Platform at https://blogs.pinoyau.info

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask at [email protected]

UPDATE 19Feb2017 10:30pm
People are asking about the process or Mechanics.

1) Topics to write:
- Normally blog articles should be something that you think will help other migrants or something that could help or inspire those people who are still in process of their application. The aim is to help encourage and provide relevant info to people.

E.g. Tipid Saving tips, How to open a Bank Account, Passport renewal, etc.

2) How to write and submit the article to you?
- You don't need to submit to me. You can write directly sa Blog site natin. Create a new post lang from the dashboard after logging in, then you can find the user-friendly tool where you can write, upload your own photos, and even design the layout as you wish kasi may WYSIWYG editor cya. You can also let me know the Topic before hand (optional). after writing you can click publish, i will then be notified to approve your article and push it live online.

3) Timelines - Wala pong hard timeline, you can write it in your free time.

4) Compensation- There are two types to choose from.
1) User your own Adense - you will earn more as traffic wont be a problem, compared to starting your own blog site.
2) $10 per article approved. - Decided to give a token of at least $10 per article for people who wish to write for the blog site but doesnt have an Adsense Account or having difficulty acquiring one. $10 is payable thru Paypal.

Please feel free to share your thoughts, if you have any suggestions please don't hesitate to let me know, so we could improve our blog site.



Regards,
Admin
