Description

Are you a driven software developer who wants to be a part of growing Typeshare to millions of online writers? Then read on...

What we do

At the highest level, we exist to make it possible for anyone to start writing online.

Typeshare gives writers all the tools they need to go from idea to published in minutes, not days. We provide writers with:

  • Templates so they never stare at a blank page again.

  • Native publishing to Twitter, Medium, and LinkedIn.

  • A Social Blog - a home for all your writing.

  • Analytics to track it all.

But perhaps more important than our features is our opinions on Digital Writing - a new category of writing that we are building.

Digital Writing is the methodology engrained in every Typeshare feature. Here are some key pillars of Digital Writing:

  1. The best writers use templates - from tweets, to entire books.

  2. Be data-driven. Don't spend weeks writing a long piece that hasn't first been tested. Use analytics to find your best posts and build on them.

  3. Don't start a blog, write on social platforms. Most beginner writers think starting a blog is the first step. But, as a beginner you need to get your writing in front of as many eyes as possible. A blog just doesn't do that, social platforms are built for that.

These pillars drive how we think about every feature inside of Typeshare. If this gets you excited, you'd be a good fit at Typeshare!
