DIS CONTRIBUTORS
Thank you for your interest in becoming a contributor!
Write for the DIS and help pay for your next vacation!
We want you to write for the DIS's family of websites! We’re looking for everyone and anyone with something to say about Disney, and if we publish your article, you’ll make some money.
Here’s how it works:
- Sign up to become a DIS contributor and agree to our terms and conditions below after reading this page carefully.
- Once you are registered, we'll send you instructions on how to proceed. Articles can be on a wide range of topics from Disney resorts and theme parks to dining and Disney Cruise Line. From time to time, we’ll adjust the list of topics we’re accepting based on what we need for the site.
- If we use your article on any of the DIS family of websites, we’ll pay you $25!
- Payments are made at the end of each month via PayPal.
What can I write about?
Write about what interests you. If you’re a fan of a particular resort, write about it and tell others why you love it so much. If you have something you need to get off your chest, write about that too. Had a great meal at Tony's Town Square? Tell us about it! Received bad service at Steakhouse 71? We want to hear about that, too. Have a top 5 list you want to share? Here’s your chance. Be creative! Think about topics that would interest other Disney fans and helpful to those planning Disney vacations. The sky is the limit! We ask that posts are a minimum of approximately 500-600 words.
Currently, we are looking for articles on the following topics:
- Disney Theme Parks and/or Resorts
- Disney Dining (including reviews)
- Park touring while using Disney Genie, Disney Genie+, and Lightning Lane
- Disney Cruise Line (for DCLFan.com)
- Adventures by Disney
- Universal Orlando Resort (for UOFan.com)
DO:
- Represent your opinion. Write articles on topics you are passionate about.
- Write articles that will help people who are planning a vacation. Take the things you’ve learned from your experience and share it!
- Use good grammar and punctuation. Poorly written articles that are loaded with spelling and grammatical errors will be rejected.
- Include links to relevant information that supports your article, preferrably from wdwinfo.com.
- Include your Facebook/Twitter or other social media information.
- Include pictures and video with your articles. You must be the owner of the media you are including. If you want to include video with your article, you must use a YouTube account that you own and it must be video that you took. Read our guidelines on the use of pictures and video.
DON’T:
- Plagiarize someone else’s work. If you didn’t write it, don’t submit it. Any contributor found to submit work that is not their own will be dropped. You are liable for any claims made by third parties if you reproduce their work without permission.
- Over promote. We want honest opinions based on things you’ve experienced. We want your ideas and your creativity. Articles that read like a brochure will be rejected. You must also disclose if you have any direct financial relationship connected to the content you are writing. Which leads us to…
- Advertise. If you have a product to sell, this is not the forum for it. Submitted content that includes links to sites or products that we, in our opinion, deem to be advertising or promotional in nature will be rejected.
- Review a product or experience you did not pay for or have been compensated for. The DIS policy regarding reviews is that we only review experiences that we pay for. Contributors are free to take advantage of Disney discounts available to the general public to get the best available price, such as annual passholder benefits or other special offers.
- We will only pay for articles that are used on our site. Not all articles submitted will be used. We reserve the right to reject any submission for any reason.
- If we use your article on any of the DIS family of websites, we’ll pay you $25.
- All payments are made via PayPal at the end of each month.
- Content submitted must be original and may not appear on other sites.
- All content must be the work of the author, and cannot be copied from other sources. If information from another source is used, it must be clearly referenced. Any contributor found plagiarizing will be dropped as a contributor.
- All articles submitted must be exclusive to the DIS and cannot appear anywhere else for a minimum period of 6 months.
- You will retain all ownership rights to your work, but you grant the DIS an irrevocable, non-exclusive, freely sub-licensable (through unlimited levels of sublicense), license to use, reproduce, modify, transmit, distribute, publicly perform and display (including in each case by means of a digital audio or video transmission), advertise in, on, and around, and create derivative works of the Content, and to incorporate such Content into other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed at our discretion.
- You are responsible for ensuring that any content you submit does not infringe the rights, intellectual property or trademarks of any third party.
- Articles submitted to the DIS will be summarily rejected if they violate any of the following guidelines:
a. Content that is false, misleading, threatening, defamatory or otherwise objectionable.
b. Content that infringes on a third party's intellectual property rights, including but not limited to patent, trademark or trade secret, copyright.
c. of a type that you do not have a right to transmit under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships, such as proprietary and confidential information;
d. unsolicited, undisclosed or unauthorized advertising; - By registering for, submitting and accepting payment for articles you submit, you acknowledge that you have read and you agree to these terms and conditions.
