Description:

You're the passionate basketball authority that other people turn to for advice, and you wouldn't have it any other way. You know about the history of the game, what makes a great player, the best teams year in and year out, how to explain the rules to a beginner and how to construct a winning fantasy team.

You're a seasoned writer with an engaging voice and an infectious enthusiasm for the topic. You're not necessarily a techie, but you're familiar with HTML.

If all of the above is true, perhaps you have what it takes to be an About.com Guide!

About.com is the Web's leading provider of practical solutions to everyday problems. Our expert Guides offer advice and tutorials on hundreds of topics, ranging from asthma to action movies, from home repair to home cooking, from gadgets to getaways.

As a Guide you'll build and maintain a GuideSite, a topical section of About.com which contains:

* Original content (articles, reviews, FAQs, tutorials) written by you
* A blog featuring your unique voice and personality
* A directory of the best content in your topic, whether it be your own work or links to other sites
* A discussion forum where you serve as community leader
* All About.com Guides are freelancers who work online and set their own schedules, giving them the flexibility to log on from anywhere in the world whenever they have the time. With no timesheets to fill out and no timecards to punch, working for About.com gives you the flexibility to write when you want, even if you have a full-time day job. More information about salary can be found on our application site.
