I'm a new member at associated content and just submitted my article for review.
The page after submission says tat it guarantees that all content will be reviewed by a content manager within 2 weeks, but it could be earlier.
In light of the last phrase, I would like to know from Associated Content members here or those with knowledge, how long did it take for a content manager to review your articles? And how much time is the average?
Thanks.

I have been a member of Associated Content for quite some time and have submitted several articles to be reviewed. The time does vary due to the amount of submissions that are needing to be reviewed. The time frame for review of my submission has been around a week, but a few have taken closer to two weeks. I rarely submit my articles for review anymore unless it is an article I feel that AssociatedContent would pay me for. Instead, I submit my articles as "Display Only" which makes your article available to view right away and you can start earning money for the views immediately. You don't get paid up front for this type of submission, but it does give you the extra time to earn money for the views. Good luck with your writing.

I'm new in Associated Content and despite the Display Only option, I believe they still review my submission. I don't know when they will allow me to post it right away.
I read somewhere that I must have at least 3 or was it 5 approved articles before my articles on Display Only can be posted without undergoing review. Is this accurate? Thanks.

I don't believe that's accurate. From the time that I joined until now, I have never had my "Display Only" submissions reviewed. They have always been available for anyone to view on the website within about 10 minutes at the most. I've never read that you had to have 3 or 5 articles approved before you can have your Display Only articles to be posted.

Oh and for non-US residents please note that you are not eligible for payment in associated content unless you are a featured contributor... SUCKS!
I should read FAQs before I published glad it was not yet approved and deleted my submission! LOL
Thanks Scott and bond.
