“Because of my poker page, I got read by Bluff Magazine and got picked up for an assignment covering the 2009 World Series of Poker! I'm moving to Las Vegas for a few months to cover the entire Series and it would have never been possible if I didn't have my Examiner pages out there for readers/editors to read, so for that, I want to thank both of you for giving the chance to put my content on the web.”
Alex Gonzales – former LA Poker Tournament Examiner

We’re looking for Examiners for the Games & Hobbies channel, which showcases a variety of local content. Here is a sample of available topics:
- Poker
- Lottery

Examiners are paid a very competitive rate based on standard Internet variables including page views, unique visitors, session length, and advertising performance. This is not a full-time “quit your day job" kind of opportunity, but Examiners can definitely earn a little extra cash while gaining exposure through their writing.

- Passion for the topic!
