Triond vs Associated content

Does anyone on here use Triond and/or AC? Which do you prefer, if you prefer one? What are the adavntages and disadvantages in you opinion? Do you use any other sites that have paid you to write?

As Associated Content is very much biased towards it's American users, if you are not from America, I would very much consider using Triond instead of Associated Content, as Triond seems to get more traffic than Associated Content. I prefer the look of Triond and it's pages. For Americans however, I would suggest using Associated Content, as it offers upfront payments and Triond doesn't. From PPM bonuses though, Triond takes the cake, also with a payment limit of only a third of Associated Content (50 cents compared with one dollar fifty). If you put an article up on Triond, you can also put it up on Associated Content albeit only on display only, so you do not have to choose one over the over.

I am pretty sure that you can republish articles already published on Triond (don't take my word for it though), as long as Triond is the first place that you publish it to, also, you cannot (well, you could try, but I doubt they would let you) put an article that is already published on Triond, as Exclusive/Non-Exclusive on Associated Content, only as display-only.

I had been using both for a couple of weeks and feel Triond responds faster than AC.. But not sure which one pays high.. On my perspective, triond keeps updating the earnings every 24 hours.. www.helium.com is also another site that pays for writing..
