I would love to contribute, but my command of English is not great, what if I have grammatical or spelling errors?
All articles will be reviewed and edited if necessary by our editors. If you have a story, produce it. We will help you make it shine.
ADVERTISING
How do I advertise on the website?
Burnpavement does not employ traditional banner ads. You know what they say, "Banner ads are signposts to somewhere you probably don't want to go."
We prefer to work with partners. We give our partners publicity opportunities and product/car feature coverage. We provide exposure of partner branding at strategic locations in the website and link them to their respective corporate webpages or a publicity webpage advertisement. It is a multi-faceted program that will yield results, not waste money and time. Contact us to discuss more.
PHOTOGRAPHY
I love the photography on the website, can you teach me how to shoot like that?
Yes. From time to time, we will conduct workshops and mass photoshoots to allow automotive photographers to learn from one another.
Everyone has a different style, but when we learn from each other, we grow together.
