Why would newer articles publish quicker on Daily Article than an older article. I wrote like four or five articles all on different days and the newer articles actually posted quicker than the one that was posted first? What gives? Is something wrong with the first article that they don't tell you about they just never post it for sale? I am new to Daily Article and don't understand how they do things so any info would be greatly appreciated. I thought the older articles would go in the system first like first come first serve. LOL
Has this ever happened to you? Did your articles ever get posted for sale or did you delete them?

Maybe you are not the owner, that's why!
The articles I submitted earlier do not show up for sales too, and those that I submit later appear for sales.
I check out the forum in DA, someone asks the questions, and the administrator just ignored the question. Very bad customer service oh.

That certainly doesn't sound good. Darn, I sold off the company too fast. LOL I needed to fire someone. I actually emailed them and haven't gotten a response. I didn't know there was a forum. My eyesight must be failing me. On a positive note maybe they are keeping the older ones because they have a buyer. Actually my older article was more expensive. Maybe they thought the price was too high. I figured they would have sent me something saying so.

Hi Mommaj, you can forget about writing to them. They never reply any email. As far as I know, it's a small operation, probably just the founder handling all the work.
I read in forum in AC, that once you make a sale or two, DA does not moderate your articles anymore, so it's instant publication.

Daily Article - I have never herad of them. I think they may be publishing articles on random. They might be looking for articles that would draw more readers and would earn them more revenue. On what topics did you write about. By the way, I would like to know more about this site.

Actually, with daily article you submit your articles and they post them for others to purchase. They should want to post all the articles immediately so they can make as much money as possible. This is why it doesn't make sense. I had two wedding articles. One of the older wedding articles didn't post. It was submitted a day before the other. You might want to check it out.

I don't have any idea yet as to how they deal with articles being submitted. I'm still about to find out since my first article was submitted on May 14, 2009 and until now it is marked as available. Anyone who has idea about it?
Based on their policy you have to submit an article subjected for approval before you could submit other articles but does it really take that long to be approved and why is it marked available when I haven't received any notice that it has been approved and ready to be purchase?
Any form of enlightenment would do.

Maybe it has to do with the topics or the relevance of the articles taht you posted. What were they about and how long were they? BTW, I take it this means you are satisfied with Daily Article as a source of income?

Not yet. None of my articles were purchased and only two became available so far. I have to wait to see if anyone buys my articles. The customer service said to price around $10 per 200 words. Looking at the competition there is no way my articles will be bought unless someone just feels sorry for me. LOL
I submitted two wedding articles only one has shown up as available. One article was on insurance and another on camping. The camping article is showing as available. I don't know how I like the site yet.
Are you on daily article? How do you like it and how much do you price your stuff for?

I haven't had time to do enough writing to submit anything to them so I have yet to sign up. Are you monitoring what sells the way scheng1 does?
If I understand correctly, you submit articles and then they choose the ones they want to offer for sale? Does this mean they have rejected the ones that aren't listed as available?

Hi Canellita, I think my articles will take a long time to sell.
I do not want to lower my price to just $10 per article, and there are many writers in DA selling at that rate.
Yesterday I checked the bargain bin (for those articles below $10), the lowest is $2 for a carrot cake recipe.
No doubt cheap articles sell fast, but once the reputation of a "cheap writer" sets in, it's impossible to price high anymore.
I have read that one AC writer sold her work at nearly $100. Her work was displayed for a few months before a buyer purchased.
I have seen some writers pricing the articles above $100 too. If they can sell their articles, I think I will jack up the price of all my articles.
