We’re looking for bloggers who are trying to conceive, currently pregnant, or are mothers of babies under 6 months of age to join Hellobee! Please note that this is a volunteer position, but our bloggers find the experience to be incredibly rewarding! :)
We have very limited slots so we’ll be looking for bloggers with the complete package:
- an interesting voice
- a great sense of style
- can update 2-3 times a week
- someone who shares helpful information as well as relatable stories
- takes blog-worthy pictures
What we want from all our bloggers is a mix of posts that combine your personal motherhood journey with more informational posts. Readers should relate to you and learn from you as well. We’re not looking for personal journal style posts that feature pictures of your baby or things you did that day. If you already have a baby blog, that often means writing some new posts, or editing posts you’ve already written so that they appeal to a wide audience like Hellobee. For some tips on what we’re looking for in a Hellobee blogger, please check out this post.
