For all the aspiring and working travel writers out there: our friends over at BootsnAll have just launched two new paid travel writing outlets.

BootsnAll feature articles will pay $50 — here’s the skinny:

…Your article should potentially appeal to a wide audience, rather than just those interested in going to a particular destination. They also need to be visually appealing, so we need to be able to use photos throughout in order to help tell the story in the text.

We are also interested in new and creative list articles as well as what we call Photo Features where the collection of images itself is the star of the show. There are unlimited ways of being creative, even with lists, so pitch us your best ideas and we’ll tell you what we think.

Meanwhile, BootsnAll expert travel articles will fetch $30. Details:

Expert Articles need to be about something that other travelers are already researching. We will include these articles in our Traveler’s Toolkit, so the audience will have a chance to find them over time…

We appreciate creativity on these, so don’t hold back. If you know a particular aspect of travel very well, chances are your knowledge will really help others out there. We can’t use topics that are widely covered elsewhere (like tips on packing light, for example), but we are open to hearing any ideas.

Check out the complete guidelines, and get writing!
