Ezine articles - What is the best way to speed up the process?

15 replies
Hello!

It is currently taking ages for Ezine to approve my articles.

I think I have read somewhere that the best way to achieve Platinum status is to submit 10 articles with NO resource box, wait until all articles are approved (and status is upgraded to Platinum) and then add the resource box.

Does this method work?

Would like to receive replies from experienced warriors in Ezine marketing.

Thanks

    First I've heard about the resource box. Ye, I hear ye, they take ages, 10 days per article.

    Make sure there are no mistakes in your articles, or any sites you're linking to. I had a problem with a plugin on one of my sites, wasn't loading in firefox. So I now have to submit 10-25 more articles.

    Hi Beatrice, I have just recieved platinum staus after 10 submitions. With every article I submitted my resource box had two ''self serving links'' to my websites. Until you get platinum status they do take a while to review and publish your articles. I think the only other way is to pay a subscription to get platinum status.

    I was a basic plus member and I wrote the 25 articles and there were one or two that I had to fixed so they left me in Basic plus status and gave me another 25 to write. But suddenly the last 5 or 6 articles I submitted, even before I was supposed to be upgraded to platinum, they approved them the same day I submitted them. I was very surpised. I am astill a basic plus but they are approving them the same day.

    It works in the sense that it can get you to Platinum. I know people who've done it.

    Whether it's any faster is less clear, and I can't really think of a way of proving it, anyway.

    To find that out you'd have to collate the very recent (i.e. last week) experiences of (at least) two people, one who did exactly that and one who submitted resource-boxes at the same time. Certainty isn't going to be easy, I think.

    I suspect that few people here have more relevant, regular, recent experience of dealing with EZA than I do (I've probably submitted articles there on over 300 of the last 365 days), but even I'm not really able to help you with this one, I'm afraid.

    Everyone has their own one experience of the point you want help with, and almost all of them will be out-of-date by now.

    It may all be of limited help to you, I'm afraid. One person's experience from late last year is described in detail here but even that may be out-of-date, I'm afraid, as things can change quickly.

    This is incorrect. Platinum status is not for sale. ("Premium" status is for sale, a different thing altogether).

      I think to find out if it works, I will give it a go and keep this thread updated.

      Sorry Beatrice and Alexa , i should have expanded a bit more. There is a monthly premium membership which gets your articles to the front of the line before non premium menbers, as well as other benefits. However it is $97 a month.

    Get ready to start reading other posts about the changes EZA is making and start expecting that it is going to be even harder to get platinum status.

      On the contrary: it appears that it's going to be easier for those who read the editorial guidelines, and that's even their specific objective, as stated today (e.g. in reducing the required article-count for "basic plus" from 25 to 10).

    let me share my experience. I have uploaded 10 articles on a medical niche and after approving those articles, ezine automatically convert my account to a platinum account and now I'm getting the article approval within 24 – 48 hours

      Easiest way to speed up the process is to just get the 10 articles posted ASAP so you can get it over with.

      Make sure the articles are perfect and the site you link to is acceptable to EZA's standards.

      Then don't sit idle while you wait. Keep writing. Stopping to see is just silly. Get a backlog of content for them when you get the status change.

          It is true that you have to submit around 10 articles without adding any resource box(you can always do that later when the articles must have been approved) but it is also very important that you carefully prone your keyword density to around 1 - 2 % and write for humans instead of writing for the search engines.

          This simply means that you should be researching your articles well and write as if you are presenting a detailed lecture to live audience while being as brief as between 400 - 700 words.

          This is because, ezinearticles are presently trying to find ways of gaining their 'lost grounds' due to the recent changes in the google's algorithms.

          Try these and you will surely see positive results.

          Good luck Beatrice!

    I think the trick to getting them approved is to play no tricks!

    Write 10 quality articles, submit them and just wait it out. Not having any resource box or links will give them less reasons to not-approve you.

    The articles get approved much faster after you reach Platinum.

    Just play by their rules and everything will be fine.

    Do drop them a email if your articles are not approved. They guys at Ezines are really nice. Whenever I get an article that is not approved, just politely ask them why and they will let you know or inform you if it was a mistake on their part.

    Hope that helps.

    Good luck!

    Just write quality content, the rest will take care of itself...
    If you get in after 10, great, if after 35, no biggie, it might take a few more days, that's it. Don't think about it too much. Heck, it might even be better to get Platinum status after 35 articles, it will force you to write a lot of articles....

    I got in after 10, with all links and self-serving junk included, however I noticed that I have become a bit lazier when it comes to posting new articles on Ezine... It seems as it once I reach the P level, I had achieved a goal and gone a step back. Now I'm in the process of gearing back up again, and hopfully I'll pump out several articles a day.
