Re: Things You Think New CC Editors Should Know

- Be open to reasonable and polite pushback. Editors are not infallible, and if a writer can point to precedent or CC policy, then that should be enough. Questioning an editor's initial comments is not a sin in and of itself. - We do not live in the 16th century. Consider context before rejecting a ...

Re: Do Some Marketing

I catch where you're coming from, but to be honest, the reason I write here and fork over 35% is so I don't have to market. That's what we pay them the 35% for!

If people are going to market for constant-content wouldn't it be more productive to market yourself and keep the hefty fee?

"Latest Content Added" section

Just wondering how the home page "latest content added" section works. I've noticed that when my articles have shown in this section, they tended to get a lot of views from the exposure. I've also noticed that many of the articles up there right now have been there for quite some time, at ...

Any way to message your buyers?

Hi All, Just finishing up my first month here at CC and loving it. I've only sold three articles, but then again I've only written 10, so I'm thrilled with three sales! Better yet, I'm starting to get a better feel for what will sell quicker, pricing, etc. Looking forward to going all out next month...

Re: More stolen content

Hi, Those domain proxies won't be of much help to you. They make their living by protecting peoples privacy, so they're very tight. They'll do what they're required to legally, but otherwise, they protect their customers. After all, it's what they do! However, the domain name isn't what's necessaril...

Clients Making Offers to Go Off-Site?

Hi all, I'm Ryan. Brand new here and so far loving it. Seems like an amazing place. I just put up my first three articles. Two were approved and one came back with some corrections needed. I've got a feeling the tight editorial process here is really going to help my writing. Anyways, on to my quest...
