Re: Returning After a Few Years - Are Sales Numbers the Same

I briefly reviewed hiredgun and beconra*'s article stats, and it looks like if you want to get a 60%ish sale rate, you'll need to price at around $0.10 - $0.13.

not sure if that's still true presently.

Re: Sold Another Article After so Many Years. .

Ooft, I don't think I could do four articles a day! I'm at 35% as well. I keep hoping that 70% I read about when I signed on will magically happen :lol: LOL. Ya, I think iz possible if u diversify your niches. Like, my SEO articles sold, and yet I had like only 5 articles written, compared with my ...

Re: Sold Another Article After so Many Years. .

I think that's what happened to me! I posted 5 articles years ago and then just left them, since it all sounded too easy. Sold one or two of them for decent money a year or two later and was sold on actually making an effort with CC. Go for it! Yeah it's really awesome when it happens! So, I concen...

Hai Everyone! Wow, I hadn't written for CC in legit years.. but one of my articles just sold for, I think $0.10 per word. I belieb now in da statz! All articles sell at that certain percentage, no matter what price! I guess that's why some people do $0.20 per word. I feel so FOMO (giddy) now to writ...

Re: SEO Houston Pros Steals Content

I believe you can report their content for plagiarism, and that way they'll get penalties. Report to Google plagiarism. They're quick about that shiz

Re: Stolen Content

So I guess if we submit 1000 articles to CC, then it all gets stolen..... well you know.

I see HiredGun's posts, and that's not like him. I hope he's okay. I hope they only stole 1 article and not like..... the catalog.

I'm also too afraid to google my articles... I don't want to cri :(

Re: Constant Content Full Time?

Here's my 2 cents too! From the other thread: I'm viewing CC as some kind of savings account. You deposit articles, then you'll see the "interest" profit months or years later. CC can be full-time :), if you've already submitted tons of articles and you're living off of the old articles se...

Re: Has CC become super busy lately? :D

Highly unpredictabe for me too. I can go days with no sales, start to get a bit worried, and then get an intense flurry to bring things back to normal. There's just no telling. And yesterday I got what has to be a record for me - a catalog sale within four minutes of editor approval... I could get ...

Re: Has CC become super busy lately? :D

Someone mentioned they did well last month. I'm sure it depends on category and season. Is $.12/word a lot? I'm not sure if you mean it's too low or high. lol LMAO lysis. Do you charge a lot more? For me it's huge because I used to be too scared to go above $0.13/word. Back then I had the mindset t...

Re: Rejection for using him or her - his and hers

I wish they would tell us when the rules suddenly change. For example, I've written numerous article where I use the word form of a number in the title (i.e, 'six')… But now the editor suddenly says I'm supposed to use '6' instead. :roll: It's hard to tell in situations like these if it's just one ...

Hey kthorpe. How did it go? Did writing lots of 500-word articles get you a full time income by now?

Re: Constant Content Full Time?

wow ur faster than me. it takes me 20 mins to do a 250-word one. how u do a 500-word one in 20 mins is just... amazing idk. If I could write a 500-word article in 20 mins I would probably charge $30-40, just because that thread started by Constant said that $30 articles sell. But yeah, I usually cha...
