Every open content writer role we track is on this page - nothing is held back behind a sign-up. The city chips read the employer’s own location line; a listing that names no city we can resolve stays searchable but sits out of them.
Open to remote only? 9 of the 17 content writer listings that publish a work model came back remote-first, and 3 more are hybrid. The other 30 say nothing either way - that field is one only some boards publish.

What 14 of these listings actually printed.
Every figure here comes from a live posting with a stated annual base range. Nothing is modelled, inferred, or averaged in from a survey - which is also why the sample is smaller than the board.

Job seekers evaluating this market should consider the salary percentiles alongside the specific hiring companies and role requirements listed in individual postings, as compensation and expectations may vary meaningfully across employers and industries. Overall, the data reflects a field with active but not overwhelming hiring volume, a defined but moderate salary range, and hiring interest from a diverse set of organizations, based on current postings.
