Free Range American posts original content about everything shooting, hunting, and the outdoors. We’re always looking for new voices and writers who want to tackle features, essays, service pieces, gear reviews, and share their love of the epic sh*t they do outdoors with our audience.
Include:
- A brief resume
- Samples of published work
- Links to any relevant social media accounts
Types of Coverage/Articles
We post a variety of article types, from listicles to features to news. If you have a specific idea to pitch, make sure you describe why your story would be right for FRA, why you are the right person to write about the topic, who/what your sources will be, and how you will report on it. Also, let us know if there is a timely element in your story idea.
If your topic idea is something that anyone familiar with our space will know has been done a dozen times before, be sure to present a fresh and unique angle.
Lastly, please indicate where the story would fit in FRA’s verticals – Hunt, Fish, Survive, or Gear
The Rates
The baseline rate for freelance writers is $350 per article. Featured articles that require travel or intensive research can pay more on a case-by-case basis. Likewise, short blurbs in gift guides may pay as little as $50 per entry.
We pay on a monthly basis, i.e., content contributors will invoice for all the work they do for FRA in a month on the first of the following month.
