While the rest of the leadership team is busy working away on the imminent ATK 4.1 update, I wanted to take a moment to show you all where ATK is going in not too distant future.
The purpose of ATK 4.0 and 4.1 was to bring ATK back into the 21st century, with a clear design style and features that you actually want to use on a daily basis. The thought was that by making the site easy to use, that people would stay on it longer. This has worked, but we're still a little way off our goal of becoming the best gaming site on the internet :).
For people to become invested in a website, it needs to give them something. Something that they can't get anywhere else. Content is king. You, the community, noticed this a long time ago. However, we wanted to get ATK 4/4.1 out before concentrating fully on something of this scale. We thought that when we do this, we need to do it right.
How will we do it "right"? Well, that's where you come in! We need a plan, and a team to make this happen:
We need a Content Team Manager, Editors and Writers.
Give us a shout below if this is something you're interested in, following this form:
Desired Role: Content Team Manager / Editor / Writer
Speciality:
Spare time/week:
This is something that we want to take seriously, so please don't enter yourself if you think won't be able to provide content on a regular basis. To begin with, we're looking for 1-2 new articles on the ATK homepage per day. That means you may only write 1 a week, but overall this should provide with enough content for 1-2 new ones a day.
In terms of what content we want, that'll be something that we'll look at with the Content Team Manager. However, whilst trying to provide comprehensive gaming news/summaries, we'll definitely have a focus on CS:GO/GW2/LoL/SCII wherever possible. That means guides/tips and tricks and whatever else you guys can think up!
