EZA upgrade question- (after 10 submitted articles have been accepted)? HELP

[entry]

How do you get a basic plus level account? - i have 10 articles submitted already.......

after finally getting 10 articles accepted on EZA (articles live), it says "No more submits remaining" when i try a new one.

I thought after submitting 10, they upgrade your basic account to a basic plus one, but i realized you have to Click the Upgrade button, after your submissions have run out.

This has got to a page asking me to say
"Here is why I think I deserve Platinum status:"

The thing is i only want is to get a basic plus account, not platinum,

and also some of my initial 10 my articles had errors, title errors, grammar - and have been rejected many times- so i had to resubmit them.

and can they reject you from getting a basic plus account? (as some of my initial 10 my articles had errors, title errors, grammar - and have been rejected many times- so i had to resubmit)- is there a way to increase the chance of being accepted for a basic plus account?

if you are an experienced EZA person, please answer this (or Pm me)

I've found that sometimes it is automatic, but other times you have to specifically request this. I'm not sure I get the reason why you only want Basic Plus, since Platinum allows you to submit an unlimited number of articles. If you request the upgrade, I guess you can specify in the comments field that you are requesting an upgrade to Basic Plus.

Usually if you've made all the corrections and your articles are now up to "par" quality wise, they will accept your upgrade request. The only true way to know is to submit the upgrade request. The best way of course to increase the chances of being upgraded without issues is to ensure that all articles you submit have no errors and follow all the guidelines as explained in their TOS.

Best of luck,

Alicia

If you really want to move up to the next level with EZA why not outsource a batch of articles from a really good ghostwriter who understands the EZA terms and conditions? It might cost you, but the faster approval will be beneficial in the long run.

Somtimes, and other times? how many times have you done this, and does this mean with different username/accounts? how many different EZA accounts have you got?

The upgrade does not happen automatically, just because you've submitted 10 articles. They cut you off at ten and then review your articles. You may go through basic again and get another 10 submissions, get bumped up to basic plus and get 25 submissions, and some people go straight from basic to platinum which is unlimited submissions.

I think you may be confusing platinum with premium. Platinum is still free and you get unlimited submissions. Premium is there paid service.

and also some of my initial 10 my articles had errors, title errors, grammar - and have been rejected many times- so i had to resubmit them.

Yes, they can reject you from basic plus. You would be basic again and get another 10 submissions.

It's a good idea to carefully proof read your articles before you submit them to avoid submitting articles with spelling and gramatical errors.

Thanks everybody, with your answers, and thanks adam, yes i was confusing platinum with premier. (hope im not the only one who has done this lol)

what things does a user do which reduces his chances of getting a platinum account? and what is the "rejected article" amount threashold approximatly which lets you get accepted for a platinum account vs rejected and back to a basic account ?

I would suggest just reading their guidelines and it will tell you exactly what you need to do. As long as you aren't promoting anything in your content and you are contributing towards their readership, there shouldn't be a problem.

All you have to do is contact them to request an upgrade. You may have to do this a few times before you reach platinum level.

Best,

Matt

I'm at basic plus and soon as the accept my article that is in Que I will request platinum level.

I imagine it will probable take at least a week or so for them to respond but I'm pretty sure that I will go platinum and that is ultimately what you want.

You may also find that as you sites and business grows, outsourcing your articles is more beneficial to you business then writing them yourself unless of course if you can churn 500 word article in 20 min.

Having too many articles sent back to you to revise.

There isn't an exact number. After my initial 10 articles, I was bumped to Basic Plus, and I only had 1 problem with 1 article. The next time around (you get 25 more submissions with Basic Plus), I had no problems, so I was bumped to Platinum.

However, I have heard of people who got 2-3 articles rejected, and they still got bumped from Basic to Platinum the first time they requested it. It all depends on who reviews your request, as some are more lenient than others.

I have a service where I create Ezine Articles account for clients, then I write and submit the articles on their behalf and work to get them Platinum status, so I have experience with this. From what I have noticed some of the accounts instantly went Platinum upon acceptance of all ten articles, and other times I had to initiate it.

Simply say: "I want to keep providing good quality content to the EZA community so I can help people who need to read the information..."

That's basically all I ever put in there :P

Does anybody know such a good ghost writer on the top of their heads, who understands the eza terms and conditions, who can do articles with no spelling + grammer mistakes? any recommendations ?

Hi

I don't know very well how the things work with EZA.
But I think if you submit good content they will upgrade your account
at least was what happen with me.
Some time ago I opened an account and after have submitted 6 articles
they changed my account to platinum without I ever ask.
I'm not a good writer and outsourced the articles probably if I had write
it myself never got the upgrade.
My advice is if you are not confident writing the articles yourself outsource it
at the end it makes a lot of diference.

Thats what im asking for, a good ghost writer who can write me some articles who understands the eza terms and conditions...

[jorgesil]

Unfortunately I lost the contact from the other guy who write my articles
but I find him in Getafreelancer.

[Slippy]

My only advice is submit great articles... once they get approved you'll get a higher membership. They'll even send you a nice coffee mug =)

And once you've hit 500 articles like myself, they'll send you 2 notepads (wooh!)

haha.

Hope you make it!

Slippy, can you consider writing some of my articles for me?
