Just started with Associated Content, any tips you can share?

Is it the article "do yoiu feel the heartbeat"? It is excellent. Very well written, with excellent grammar & ideas. There is nothing I can offer in advice, as I joined Associated Content at least two months ago, but never got aroiund to writing anything. I feel that I must make the time & effort, as I believe they do pay quite well. Good Luck.

Me personally, I don't know anything about A.C. Other than what I just pulled up from your link... Looks like a place to blog and make money:) The one recommendation I have for you is actually in a blog I wrote. I would share with you what that is, but you're just going to have to read the blog:) http://philsward.blogspot.com/2007/09/so-you-want-to-know-how-to-make-money.html (Look toward the bottom of the page... It talks about consolidation) The 'secret' I talk about doesn't have to apply to blogspot which is where I recommend blogging for money. Since you are already on a site where you can make money, that is fine. It's the principle at the end that I am trying to get across. Also, have you heard of Yuwie? It would be another great place for you to post a 'blog' (read the above blog to understand what I'm talking about) to divert people. Plus, if you get a following to your A.C. Blog, you might be able to refer them to yuwie as well! Check out www.lookoutmyspace.com for more info on Yuwie.

Good article. I always submit mine as non-exclusive. This way I am free to submit them elsewhere later on if I want to. If you submit them as exclusive, they retain all rights to them, and you can't publish them anywhere else if you decide that you want to do it later.

You should be sure to read the fine print there. Somone wrote a discussion with a caution about that site, I wish I could remember who it was, maybe if you try a search on it you will find it. Anyway the short version of the caution is that anything you write for them is theirs, they own it, you can't publish it or sell it anywhere else.
