Getting Accepted Into Constant Content

Hello everyone!

I am a freelance writer and I would like to start writing within the Constant Content network. I have heard great things about the platform. It seems to be the best option out there, as I've also heard that the employers at networks such as Elance and similar underpay their writers pretty badly.

I have tried several times to apply for an account at CC without success. Actually they never even bothered to respond to me. I passed the grammar test every time without problems and submitted a sample of my writing style as was demanded but never received a word from them.

Do you have any tips on how not to be ignored by CC when applying for an account and how to get accepted into the network? I would really love to be an active writer there.

Thank you!
Monthy

  • I used to write there years ago, and after reading your post, went over again--and it looks like everything has changed.

    I don't know what happened to our old articles that were on there, and it looks like there are a lot of hoops to jump through before being able to add articles there now.

    I don't know the answer to your question because it looks like I'd be considered "new" there now too.

  • They used to be a lot more responsive before. Even if you failed, at least they would send you an email explaining why they couldn't accept you, etc.

    That tells me it's probably not the best website to write for anymore. Unless their emails went to your Spam folder and you never noticed, or something?

      Constant Content doesn't really "pay" at all. It's not a content-buying site. It's a marketplace, where potential customers look for suitable content and C-C takes a (substantial) commission.

      I happen to know people doing very well there, at the moment.

      This is the third time in the last three weeks I've heard the OP's complaint, though. It seems that at the moment they're taking 5-7 days (in spite of saying "within 5 days") to notify successful applicants, and sometimes not letting unsuccessful ones know at all.

  • You should try going for other sites like Textbroker or iWriter. You could always use Greenlightarticles as well.

    All three sites above are utilizing professional content and allowing ordinary people like you and me to write for them. They pay out very well.
  • Constant Content pays a lot more than the other alternatives. In fact, it is a great place to write content but they take forever to approve articles now. I usually get one batch of articles approved per week.

    I am not sure why they are not responding, but it might be that they are super slow all the time.

    Good luck! I hope that you get accepted because the alternatives pay far, far less.
  • I write for Constant Content whenever I have free time. I've only submitted 8 or 9 articles, but they were all accepted without any issues. I've only sold one article, but it went for $40. Not bad considering it took me maybe an hour to write. I've been thinking about starting to be more aggressive with CC. Seems like there's some decent earning potential.

    If you're looking for a more 'content-milly' type of website, I'd recommend Crowdsource. Like Constant Content, they'll put you through a writing assessment to make sure you're a suitable candidate. You seem like you have decent writing skills, though, so I don't think you'd have a problem getting accepted. They usually pay at least 3 or 4 cents a word, which is good by content mill standards. Nice people to work for, too.

    I'm surprised you haven't heard back from CC. They're picky, but they aren't that picky. Maybe they're just taking their sweet time. Hopefully you hear something back. Good luck!

    • You may also want to consider writing for yourself. There are many ways to monetize your own blogs and sites. That way, you maintain control of what you write and no one else takes it down on you, with no notice.

      Just something to think about.
