Multiple Ezinearticles Accounts?

Ghalt · 10-20-2009, 01:18 PM

I recently heard someone suggest that if you don't get Platinum with your first 10 articles at EZA that you should just start a new account.

Seems a teensy bit gray-hat to me, but I'm wondering if any of you folks have had any luck doing it.

I've been stuck at Basic Plus for a while. I've had no issues with my previous 25 submissions, that I can recall, but they kept me at Basic Plus. I'm just through a new batch of 25, and can't submit any more until these are approved. Hopefully it'll go Platinum then (there were NO issues with these last 25).

But I'm considering just creating a new acct and starting with 10 great articles.

Thoughts?

Well it IS against their terms and conditions so I'd be careful about doing something like that - it's a risk I wouldn't want to take.

I would not suggest it. I did this when I was first starting out then felt bad about it and confessed to EZA staff. They were kind enough to combine all of my accounts into one.

I looked over the TOS and couldn't find anything that stated that.

Not trying to argue the point...if it was outright against their TOS, it would be Blackhat, IMO. Feels gray to me, but not quite black.

Visit this page:

and look out for this line:

There it is.

Thanks.

Who knew it would be under editorial guidelines, and not Author TOS.

Guess I'll stick with my one account.

Just ask them nicely to upgrade your account. I had similar situation and got my account upgraded yesterday after they saw my message.
