The team would like to see the community involved more with writing for NEM. So if you are good at writing and would like to help out. Here is a chance to earn a bounty.
Latest bounties and more information regarding this program can be found here.
https://nem.io/community/marketing-bounties/.
Since the launch of the new website the information here is now outdated.
Bounties are paid out according to the following:
5,000 XEM for a blog that is short and simple but acceptable to post.
10,000 XEM for a blog that has taken some serious work. These will be longer, talk about more serious topics, and probably would often have some graphics or screenshots involved.
20,000 XEM for a blog that goes above and beyond and is something we can consider excellent. These are the blogs that talk about the most difficult topics and have rich infographics and/or videos that accompanying them.
There will be a 5,000 XEM reward for blogs that are written by a community member and considered good enough to post, but the Core team has declined to post.
All bounty payouts are now described on the NEM website.
The best way to write a blog is in Markdown, which is the language used to write posts in the NEM forum and is easy to use, so if you have posted here, you have already written in Markdown.
Dillinger.io is a very good Markdown preview site. Please make sure your pics/infographics have proper hosting links on a third party hosting site. A guide for how to write in Markdown can be found here.
If you write and preview there, we can port it to the blog fairly easily. The best way to share with the NEM team so we can edit and comment is to then paste the code into a Google doc and share that.
Below are some following topics that are acceptable blog topics. But if you have any idea of your own, please message me as there is a wide variety of topics that can be covered.
New suggestions from the community are welcome too!

Here is the latest link to our most recent blog written by Paul, to which he will be given a bounty of 50,000 XEM.
We need some new tutorial blogs for NanoWallet.
Including:
