Integrity
Rate This Post: 
A rant:
There is no integrity in buying articles and calling them your own.
If you’re going to buy articles (Larry Dotson’s come to mind), at least have the integrity to use the articles for inspiration and don’t submit them to our directory WORD FOR WORD… as we don’t accept non-original articles.
This is a very, very, very small planet.

Got 25 Articles?

Some “Edyacating”
Rate This Post:
If you are new to using articles to market your business, here are the 2 golden rules:
The article body must be educational and informative. If you don’t know what to do, make your article body filled with a strategy or multiple tips on how to do something.
You get to sell yourself ONLY in the Resource Box. This is located below the article. If you try to sell yourself hard in the body of the article, your article will never make it into our directory and you may be wasting your time.
Please keep these two golden rules in mind when sending in your articles and thanks for your support! :-)

I Feel Good!
Rate This Post:
Or at least that is the song I am singing today. :-)
Our new membership system is taking form and while it didn’t happen as fast as our team wanted it to, at least we are plowing forward and adding some awesome functionality into our members-only section this week.
Looking to take on our 100th customer before this month ends, which isn’t too bad I guess for a brand new service that is less than 45 days old.
Look for us to be a bit quiet on the promotional front as we build and stabilize our service from the back-end. We’re in it for the long-haul, so know we are committed to improving our service daily.

Be Honest
Rate This Post:
So we opened up the directory again to (1) free article submission and the rest would be fee-based. It only took 36 hours before multiple authors would abuse our system by joining with multiple free accounts.
Know that we will be filtering out silently authors who create multiple accounts or are the “work at home get-rich type scammers.” If you operate above-the-board, you should have no problems with us.
The pseudo-authors know who they are and I don’t think they are surprised to be silently removed.

Think Monthly Membership
Rate This Post:
Challenge: Many dozens of authors thought our pricing strategy of $37-$50 per article submission was a good price range.
Problem: While we like helping many dozens of clients per month, we want to help thousands of new clients per month. :)
Solution: Our new membership system is designed to do 2 things:

Joys of New Systems
Rate This Post:
Our heads are pounding. We’re implementing a brand new front-end to our service. Think of it as a hybrid between the free article submission sites and the fee-based directories. As of today, you can now submit 1 article for free and then you’ll be able to subscribe to one of our monthly packages that will hopefully launch by Tuesday.

We received 23 testimonials over the past week from our call for testimonials. I had no idea of what value our site really provided others until I read the testimonials. I thought I knew, but I was wrong. Here is what I learned:
