Subject/Target:
Sites do not need to be well known as long as the content meets the following criteria.

( curious information that piques your interest)

Examples of Media sites we prefer:
1. Business (Ex. http://www.inc.com/)
2. Know how, explanations on how to do something well. (Ex. http://www.makeuseof.com/)
3. Psychology and brain science, information on interesting and specialized fields. (Ex. http://blog.crew.co/
4. Cooking and cuisine (Cooking know-how, rather than simple recipes)
5. Science (Easy to understand explanations about science. Information on scientific approaches to handle everyday life tasks would be best)

*Please refrain from listing up any information on erotic material. However, psychology of love and romance is acceptable.

Media to be avoided:
Politics, Celebrity news, Current events news
(Ex. http://jezebel.com/)

Other Important points:
1. If possible, articles related to self-revelation should be avoided. Such as media which have a lot of the types of themes in the following link.
(Ex. Pick the Brain:http://www.pickthebrain.com/blog/)
2. Content should be something that Japanese/People living in Japan would find interesting. (Content that is not too localized. For example, the Airbnb blog (http://blog.airbnb.com/) Local lens covers a variety of regions, but is perhaps too local for a Japanese audience to find engaging.
3. Information that is not widespread in Japan (Ex. Popular Science. Media not limited to science is of course welcome too)
4. Personal blogs are also a viable source (Ex. James Clear Blog、Dr. Stu's bloghttp://realdoctorstu.com/)
5. As long as the articles are high quality and not only product introductions, corporate site media (owned media) is OK (Ex. http://99u.com/、Airbnb blog、Buffer blog)
6. Personal blogs or copyright free media (Ex. http://zenhabits.net/uncopyright/)


Please apply with your experience and an example website that may meet the criteria if possible.
