After being frustrated many times at being declined for one reason or another, I finally got upfront payment for one. I just received the offer yesterday, and I'm not sure how long it takes for it to be published, but I'm very excited. I can't wait to see it on the site.

Congratulations!!! I remember when I got my first upfront payment from them! =P I've only gotten 2 total, but it was still nice to have a little extra money. They send you the money pretty fast! It never took more than 2-3 days for me. How much did they offer? If you don't mind me asking!

I don't mind- $3.89. I accepted in a heartbeat because they've rejected me so many times that I felt very fortunate. I'm going to write some more to submit soon and hopefully sell them.

Hey! The first article I got for upfront was 3.88 =P lol. My second one was for 4.26! So I was defeniatly proud of that one.
When they publish it you can give me the link to it and I'll read it to help you earn more with the performance bonus. Or you can give me the link to your profile and I'll read all your articles!

Congratulations! I like AC because it only takes them about a day to publish and a couple of days to pay. A lot of stuff I write for them are "newsy" so they are not eligible for up-front payment, but performance paymentscan add up also, you just need to "distribute" your articles widely, and AC does a good job of placing your articles on search engines.
