My first factoidz approved in two hours

There's nothing promotional in it. But I just want to bring it to the notice of my friends that the article that I had written a while back for factoidz got published in only two hours. I had very strange ideas about factoidz and was under the impression that it is difficult to get the articles approved there. But I took utmost care to write it and checked it 3-5 times from all the angles. No wonder, it had to be approved. So happy for that ...

Hi abhi ! it seems you have enough reasons to pat yourself . Although I have not tried fatoidz but I heard so many negative comments regarding the site's approval procedure that I did not dare to try it . Congrats and all the best

@ rollylolly In fact I was also one of those people who booed the site for their strict rules. But from my personal experience I can say that only those people will talk negative who have got rejected. Don't you think it is wrong to call names if we are the ones who is not working up to the mark? And for strict rules, the payments are good too. If one works on sites that have lighter rules, the pay will also be low, isn't it? But I accepted this as a challenge to see to it that my article gets accepted. And by the grace of God, it did! @ dupremo I repeat, like I said above, it is a learning process. If you look at the bigger picture, we all should thank factoidz because they let us know that the title is not properly optimized for the SEO content. If it is not, the chances of the article getting in the search results will be lower and ultimately we will not be earning well. Let us not think of only one title/article getting rejected. If you work towards some of these technical things, you will also succeed.

Congrats I have many articles there. Make sure that everything is original and do some of the reviews and other assignments for more money. I love that site and you will do great. If you get your 10 in a row you will be a staff writer and you can start publishing without getting them approved, but they have to be original and up to their standards. I will give you some advice do some how to's and some tip articles too. Congrats again and make sure that everything is fact.

Oh you have many articles there? Could you explain a few more things you take care of before posting the articles there apart from what you mentioned above? Yes, I have written original stuff and checked it for plagiarism and that is why the article is there. Thanks for telling me that I can also pick up assignments. But I guess, I will first work towards the article section before advancing to assignments. That is for personal improvement. Whatever I will get paid for, I see it as a bonus. So, I am learning things free of cost (and in fact getting paid for it as well!) I am aware of the thing that I have to get 10 in a row to be a staff writer. The task looks monumental at the moment as I have to prepare 9 more to open the doors. I was thinking of writing some tips and how to type articles. Thanks for mentioning it.

I don't know if I can mention that thing in the discussion and directly on the forum, but whatever it was, it was satisfying and worth the time I spent.

Congrats and keep up the good work. The site is really good and we should know how to make our articles published there as they need everything in original. I too have a published article there but after that I just couldn’t concentrate on my writing. Have a nice time lotting & writing.

First of all thanks for wishing me! The site is indeed one of the best around, no doubt. Like most other paying sites, even factoidz wants original content like the way you pointed out. But the best part is that there is the activity bonus as well. That indeed prompts the writers to work harder and try to get the best out of it. Thanks again!
