Re: so how are sales these days?

Upwork can be very fruitful. An excellent profile and long-term relationships with sensible clients is the key. The fact that you're a native English speaker already puts you head-and-shoulders above most of the competition over there! :) PMFJI, but how on earth do you make any money on Upwork? I t...

Re: Can't post articles to second of two private requests

Thanks, evaku! That's reassuring to know.

The weird thing now is that my total sales show 20 additional articles, even though the amount due is correct.

I just hope payday comes soon!

Re: Can't post articles to second of two private requests

Hi, Lysis: Thanks for your reply! Yes, I had claimed both requests before I began submitting articles. The editors approved the first batch late this morning my time. I marked the first request complete and began submitting the second batch of work. The request kept showing up as "6 of 5" ...

Can't post articles to second of two private requests

A client has sent me two private requests. They're identical except that one of them is marked "Part 1 of 2" and the other is "Part 2 of 2." I'm slated to submit five articles for each request. I've turned in the first five, but I can't get at the second request to post articles ...

Re: Green font color on new site

The "Log In" button vanishes when I place my cursor over it on the new site design. Below it appears a check box with no text associated with it. I'm guessing it's a "Remember Me" item.

Re: When 5 articles aren't 5 articles

Jessica Not sure if you're aware of it or not, but writers can now request to be paid twice a month. Click on the My Account tab, then on Edit My Account, and choose semi-monthly next to Payment Frequency. [̲̅$̲̅(̲̅ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°̲̅)̲̅$̲̅] Thanks, HiredGun! Yes, I did see that, and set it up accordingly....

Re: When 5 articles aren't 5 articles

I can answer the second question. If you sell an article before they click the pay button, you'll get paid for it. So basically, when they click the pay button, everything you've sold prior to that time gets paid. Thanks for the insight, Lysis! The FAQs state that payout occurs in the first week of...

When 5 articles aren't 5 articles

Since I signed up for Constant Content, I've submitted five articles to the catalog. All of them have been approved. One of those articles sold with a full rights license before the fifth article gained approval. It's my understanding that gaining five approvals qualifies me to apply to Casting Call...

Re: Green font color on new site

The look of the site changed dramatically for me when I logged in today, and not for the better. Everything's so much larger now that I have to scroll vertically just to see the full (short) list of my current content. The sidebar list of links to various aspects of the site provided functionality t...
