APPLY TO BECOME AN EDITOR
Many
people have applied to become a LogoWatchDog editor known as "Watch Dogers". Our
senior editors evaluate each application and determine if they will be
considered for selection. Please note that we
deny applications from time to time, and no application is guaranteed
acceptance.
WHO CAN APPLY ?
PLEASE NOTE:
We do not accept any application from individuals that have any affiliation with
any design firms.
Everyone is welcome to become an editor. All
you need is an interest or passion and a computer. While there are no specific
pre-requisites, we seek people who have a genuine interest in building a
directory that is free of commercial interests and favoritism. Fairness and
objectivity prevail here. Those who still believe the Web should be free and
accessible to all, without bias and unnecessary noise, will most enjoy the
LogoWatchDog experience. Potential editors should demonstrate a keen eye for
spotting quality and useful sites, attention to detail, and possess good
grammar, spelling and communication skills.
WHAT DOES AN EDITOR DO ?
Editors select, evaluate, describe and organize Web sites
that revolve around the design industry. They are responsible for reviewing
submissions to their categories, and list sites according to prescribed
editorial guidelines. Editors join LogoWatchDog by applying to edit a design
category that corresponds to their interests. Generally, new editors work with
senior editors at first, and then apply to edit additional areas after they have
accumulated a number of edits.
Since this is a community managed project, editors often
do a lot of other things in addition to listing web sites. Many technologically
savvy editors help to build editing tools and features, and share them with the
other editors. Senior editors volunteer to mentor junior editors. Some editors
initiate editing projects to improve the overall quality of the directory, and
to deal with backlogs of unreviewed submissions. For LogoWatchDog editors, they
sky's the limit in terms what they can do here. This makes LogoWatchDog a
particularly fun and interesting place.
Setting a new standard in web site rating.
Finally there is someone that will put a stop to the cheating sites and scam companies that have taken over the net. Our editors have no affiliation with any logo design sites. We do not accept any bribes, and if you are banned from this site there is no way to ever be listed here again. We are here to expose the rotten apples
that have given the design industry a bad name.
The entire staff at LWD looks forward to growing with you!
