I've run out of EZA submissions

Liam Hamer · 08-19-2009, 07:50 AM

I've been a member of EZA a few months now, but until this week had only submitted one article. This week I have submitted a further 9. I just got a message saying my account will be reviewed for an upgrade when all my current articles are reviewed. Are these upgrades a formality(assuming the article content is good and all rules adhered to)? If I do get upgraded, does this mean my articles will be approved quicker. Many thanks

I wasn't upgraded after my first 10. They just added another 10 slots to my queue. Of course, I had an "issue" with two of my articles.

1. A first-level editor rejected an article saying it had my URL in the title - the title was "Top 10 Ways to <KEYWORD PHRASE>" and my URL was <KEYWORDPHRASE>.com. It was accepted after I sent an email.

2. A first-level editor rejected another because it was "non-unique." I'd posted the article to my blog first. Again, it was accepted upon further review.

I suspect these reviews flagged my account as a "problem account." It took a total of 60 articles before I was upgraded to platinum.

Unless you do something comletely nuts, you will definitely get more submissions approved. If all 10 of your articles are approved without sending them back for any reason, you will be upgraded to Platinum. If any one of them was sent back for any reason at all (even if it turned out to not be an issue), they will give you another 25 submissions at which point the process repeats. Either way, within a few days you'll be able to submit more articles.

Ben Roy is exactly right. Just keep on writing and submitting. You can also open new accounts under a 'pen' name.

After my first ten they bumped me to basic plus (25 submissions). After that, platinum.

Some people go straight from basic to platinum but as Kelly illustrated, a few issues, even when they turn out to be non issues, can delay the upgrade.

It's really hard to get a free premium account, and I had only 2 declines ever.

They give you more articles to submit and you submit all of those again... and again... and again...

But I still believe

A few months ago, when I was a new member, I had a 'problem' article that was rejected because it specifically mentioned an affiliate program. That will probably mean I'll only get another 25 submissions, but I'm fine with that for now

Liam Hamer · 08-19-2009, 04:58 PM

Just checked my E-Mail and I've been upgraded to Platinum

Really pleased, I plan on writing lots more articles there so getting them approved quickly is really nice. All of the articles I have submitted this week have now been approved too.

Hi, here is a great tip. Create a new account otherwise you have to do this 25 times instead of 10. Create 10 articles on absolutely anything and are non promotional . Also make sure you have no links in the article.

After a few days all articles get accepted and you go straight to platinum status!

Cheers

CDawson · 08-19-2009, 05:16 PM

If all of your submissions were accepted, no problem, then you should be promoted to basic plus, then put in 25 good submissions and you will hit platinum.

robcole · 08-20-2009, 02:39 AM

You actually go straight to platinum status!

Not necessarily, read the above posts. A few of us talk about why we went from basic to basic plus and then to platinum. Several others have had to cycle through basic more than once.

It's possible to go straight from basic to platinum but it does not always happen that way.

Just about to submit my first EZA's myself.

I guess most rejections are avoidable if you read and follow the Author TOS and the Editorial Guidelines

Have fun
