Just think, a number of NFL free agents wanted to break rank and join the 49ers this offseason. Like those players, why not become a part of Niner Noise.

As part of the ever-growing FanSided network, Niner Noise extends its reach across dozens of platforms. In January of 2017, we became the first site in FanSided’s NFL division to eclipse two million reads in one month.

Two million! And that’s just one month.

So you know what that means, right? Your words have the potential to be read by millions of avid fans across the globe.

What’s In It for Me?

Have you ever thought of a career in sports writing? Are you someone with a strong social media presence but wants to relay an opinion in more than just 140 characters?

Well, Niner Noise gives you the medium to do so.

True, initial contributors aren’t paid. Let’s get that out of the way. But with some hard work, a little bit of luck and a continuing development of your content, it’s not long before the opportunities start opening up.

Many of our writers have gone onto major ventures. Some have earned paid positions here at FanSided. Others have boosted their careers, writing for sports powerhouses such as Bleacher Report, Sports Illustrated and USA Today.

It’s up to you if you want to seize those chances.

And you don’t have to go at it alone. We have a team of editors in place to help you along. So even if you’ve never written about sports before, you’ll have the guidance to improve.

Oh, and it helps your articles will receive promotion on our Twitter and Facebook accounts, as well as the chance to be picked up by B/R, Fox Sports and numerous other highly read online destinations.

What It Takes

While the opportunities are there, it’s not an easy process to go from an upstart blogger to being a well-respected sports-media personality. It takes hard work. A lot of it.

We always encourage writers to never let someone else outwork them. If a similar writer publishes 20 articles a month, you should want to publish 30. If another writer has good insight, you want better insight.

Get the point?

The good thing is Niner Noise gives 49ers fans a chance to develop and hone their skills to make all this possible.
