I have been a freelance copywriter/business writer for about 9 years. I know good writing when I see it, and I'm a great editor. However, I'm not familiar with the standard experience of freelance (feature) writers--which is why I need your help.
I've just been hired as the managing editor of a start-up website company. They've tasked me with filling one of their many websites with very high quality content. They'd like me to recruit writers who are experts in a specific field. Of course, they are glad to give these writers a byline because this will add legitimacy to the site.
Are there any editors in this forum who have performed such a job? Can you tell me how you recruited writers? Were they freelance or staff? Also, we have developed a list of articles topics. Should we create a "template" for these articles? Is there a formula for putting together a site?
Any advice and/or suggestions would be very appreciated.
Thanks.
