Good evening everyone Does anyone on line work or have worked for associated content? I am trying to post my first assignment to them and when I do I keep getting an error message saying that ny descriptive overview must be 255 words or less..mine 13 48 words. Why won't it accept it..If anyone can help I would really appreciate it as my deadline is tomorrow. I have sent them a email but evidently they take 72 hours to respond and I dont have that much time..Thanks in advance..Joyce p.s. the descriptive overview is the section that explains what your post is about.

The limit for the descriptive overview is 255 characters, not 255 words. For me, that usually winds up being a sentence or two. You just need to edit your overview so it's not longer than that limit. Once you do that, you should be able to submit the article with no problems.

Hi, I'm not if your understanding. The brief overview is simply a short insight into your publication. If you have 1,348 words that is far too much. Your description should be a few short sentences that effectively summarize your work, it should not be your actual article. I've written a few articles for Associated Content and found it to be a relatively good pay.
