Thanks redtide. I'll keep that in mind

**redtide1969** · #**182** (**permalink**) 07-09-2009, 09:10 PM

No problem Swan,

On the links, 4-6 of them are mine and then any others would have been added by AC and their sponsors.

Hi csgcsg2,

You didn't get added to my ymsngr for some reason, so throw another request my way if you would. I've got time now to take a look at those articles mate.

Hey redtide
I got my first responses from writers at GAF and sent them the test articles.
Got some of them back and I have to say some are horrible.
Anyway, I think I have found a few winners who are willing to work at $1/rewrite with good quality rewrites.
My question is should I start them at 5 articles a day for the first week or more so that I can see if the quality of their rewrites remain consistent?
Thanks for your help.

Just intercepting here, Hammad

I am happy that you are taking concentrated action! That's always the first step to go on to become successful in Any Thing in life.

I also suggest that group your writers according to their writing styles.

Wish you the very best! God bless!

Thanks, this has been very helpful info - especially the info on using multiple accounts.

Hi Hammad,

You're welcome. Like I said you will run into some bad ones for sure. You'll find the solid writers through the process of elimination. Hopefully a few of your leads will pan out from this first ad, but again you can use my trick from the book to get your listing back up to the top also if need be.

You can definitely do that. Remember when I talked about leveraging the writers if needed? You can put that into play here also. Remember, they agreed to your terms when they placed the bid.

Let me know if you'de like me to take a look at their samples.

Keep me posted!

**csgcsg2** · #**188** (**permalink**) 07-11-2009, 08:40 AM

ok just to update my journey after buying red's book

day 1 - bought his book and finish reading it in 5 minutes (big mistake ill share later)

day 2 - started digging old magazines, and rewriting articles on health and fitness (since is popular in AC)

day 3- continued as day 2

day 4 - submitted over 15 articles and feeling very optimistic

day 5 - results came back, out of 15 articles, only 3 was approved for total $9

now what went wrong? i skimmed through red's book and though I was an expert already - big big mistake

I am not from US, so creating an account and getting it verified is all very exciting. Rewriting articles was quite easy for me even though I had to dig old magazines articles and went around my neighbours asking for them.

I would like to share one thing which is very very important that I miss out; keyword research and writing what AC wants. I skipped this part in red's book and paid a not so heavy price.

I talked to Red on ym for this, upon purchasing his ebook he offered 2 hours consultation but I think I took almost 6 hours already with Red (such a gentleman)
and he pin pointed exactly what was wrong on some of my articles and offered alternatives and tips.

I am glad I only 'wasted' about 10 hours in total of my life for not going into details on the topic of 'Giving AC Just What They Are Wanting'
Those who bought Red's book, and you are starting in AC, please read pages 10-16 at least 10 times and memorize every single word! Those who haven't please don't buy because I do not want more competition! But if you are looking for a guide and a mentor in AC, Red's the man as his ebook is easy to understand and suitable for beginners like me. You can trial and error and waste your time but the couple of hours consultion with Red's is worth more than $15 you are paying for the ebook.

I'll end with a simple yet important tip - do a google trend search on what topic is been talked about in US, then find some keywords and do some research in AC on whether this topic has been written to death. 3 of my articles that was accepted had less than 10 articles written in AC before so I am using this as a benchmark when I write my future articles. >15 articles = no submit

**redtide1969** · #**189** (**permalink**) 07-11-2009, 10:42 AM

Hey csg,

Shame on you for just "skimming it over" lol jk. Anyway, I'm glad you're on track and have a clearer picture of what AC wants. Considering you just started, the article you got $4 for is a good indication of things to come. Each time you go to start a new article remember those 3 key things I told you.

Again, you don't want to be taking the time to go through the process unless YOU KNOW you're going to get at least $4-$6 for that particular article.

Keep me posted mate,

Redtide

WheyHey · #**190** (**permalink**) 07-11-2009, 10:30 PM

Hey Red,

I have read every single post of yours in this thread, and i am certainly very impressed by your knowledge & expertise of AC and hiring freelancers..

I am a non-US citizen, so what your saying is i can sign up for an account, then what, just make up a US address ? I saw someone comment on getting taxed, how do i get around this? You said once you get to $600 just stop, and make a new account.

Will AC process the $600 to a non-US paypal account without being taxed?

I am quite a skilled writer, i have studied English literature at University for 1 year (my major is Psychology though..) and i know that if i find a topic i am interested in, i can easily submit 10-15 articles a day of my OWN writing, then i will probably think about hiring freelancers.

Do you get paid every week? I saw that AC has to review your articles, and it can take 5 or more days right? So if you only make like $30 (example), thats pretty poor considering you put in alot of hours of writing..

This is why i love BHW.... i am going to combine this with my autoblogging & adsense blog farm, and HOPEFULLY in 2-4 months be making around $8-15 a day from doing nothing

srb888 · #**191** (**permalink**) 07-12-2009, 04:16 AM

Welcome! If you carefully follow certain things mentioned in this and other AC-related threads on BHW, you can definitely earn a lot more than that daily!

Just use an US zip code and city name. Try to use US proxies (easy!)

You will get up to $600 (a little less, actually) without the need to pay the US tax (you'll need to pay your country's income taxes though if the income is taxable in your country.) You'll get money in your non-US PP a/c easily.

It's great that you're a good writer! But I suggest you check what the topics-in-demand are, and write those although any topic (apart from some) are welcome on AC.

You will get paid about a week after you submit your article batches, in fact a little earlier than a week! If you have multiple accounts (e.g., in your relatives' names) or even have a single AC account, then you can earn a lot more than the $30 -- Daily!

Aim a lot higher than the $8-15... it's quite possible, you see!

Hi WheyHey,

Thanks for the kind words. It sounds like srb (thanks srb!) covered most of your questions so I hope that helped. Keep in mind that AC takes 3-10 days to review your articles like srb said, so if you're submitting everyday there really isn't a waiting period after about 2 weeks of daily submissions. Basically, you're seeing money in your Paypal everyday from articles submitted say 7 days ago...then the next day you're seeing money in your Paypal from 8 days ago etc. Once you get those initial 2 weeks worth of submissions in, you'll be on a natural schedule of seeing money nearly every day, so the waiting period becomes a non issue. They pay every Mon, Wed and Fri.

The nice thing with AC compared to blogs is that it's fast money, and like srb said, If you scale it up and do it right you'll see ALOT more than $8-$15 a day. I can tell you've got solid writing skills, so my recommendation is to hire rewriters to do rewrites (can make $70-$100 a day depending on how many writers you hire) and then use your own writing skills for the high paying partner calls (can earn you another $100 a day from just 5 articles if you can quickly claim one partner call with each one of 4-5 AC accounts)

If you get serious about AC you can make a full-time living from it. Yes there's work involved but it's mindless, easy work once everything is setup.

Hope some of this clarified.

Best of luck,

Redtide

Anyone that's been following this thread knows I've been trying to get my Tutorial listed in the BST section for some time now. Apparently it got posted by another member here for free again. For any of you that grabbed a free copy from that thread..will you please not share it and pass it around.

All it's going to mean to those that do pass it around is more of a chance of oversaturation of some of my strategies within the book. I'm going to be limiting the number of copies sold for that exact reason.

Thanks,

Redtide

Sorry, but what is GAF? thanks

**csgcsg2** · #**195** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 02:47 AM

GAF=get a freelancer
its a website that does what it says

**redtide1969** · #**196** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 06:57 AM

Thanks csg,

Keep in mind Whitecat that GAF is the one I like to use but there are others including Elance, freelancewriting.c0m, freelancewritersforhire.c0m and a number of others. I just find that I get the most bidders at $1 per from GAF.

srb888 · #**197** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 07:12 AM

Guru.c0m is another excellent site to get quality jobs done but is a bit pricey like Elance. GAF is cheap but you will mostly get low quality and you must find better writers with methods mentioned here on AC-related threads.

Of course, you have the good old DP

**redtide1969** · #**198** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 07:44 AM

i've had great luck myself with GAF srb

srb888 · #**199** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 08:58 AM

It's because you have a great methodical approach to separating good from bad. I think it has made you 'Lucky' wrt GAF

And thanks for mentioning that impressive method to all in your great AC Guide.

BHWer's this is an absolute must for anyone into AC. Bought and read it yesterday and I am grateful and impressed. All good stuff and right to the point. Many thanks redtide69. I am just getting into AC and feel that now I will be on the right footing.

Hi kumkum,

Yes, the guide shows you exactly how to get paid by AC as a non US citizen.

And no, my guide is definetely not the same one as RRamirez from DP.

Thanks for the interest.

dgwreg · #**203** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 12:28 PM

redtide69,

Yes actually I do have some questions that came from reading the book:

1. With multiple accounts won't I have to submit W-9's for each...which is obviously problematic since the others are aliases. You seemed to indicate that you could just do the primary account, but won't they want it for the others? Or do you just leave the account active but unused as you indicated for non-residents? That would be a shame as those accounts would never really gain the "clout" you talked about.

2. I assume that the best way to submit is to give them Exclusive rights...is that correct? If so, I then assume that I cannot resubmit that article as is to other directories...correct? If so, what about spinning or rewriting it? My plan is to do most article geared as you suggested...hot categories and topics and very specific. But I also want to do articles that are geared to some of my sites, which will be less...hot. Would it be best just to make those separate projects, or is there a way to get the AC profit and the multiple submission link bounce?

I guess there is about 10 questions hiding in those two paragraphs. Sorry for the overload....

**redtide1969** · #**204** (**permalink**) 07-13-2009, 06:00 PM

No you can't sumit a W9 for each mate. Like I explained in the book, if you're out of the US you won't be able to submit a W9 at all because AC will know you aren't from the US.
If you're in the US you can only submit a W9 to one account. Like I said, the other accounts should just be left to collect page views at approx. $500 in earnings. There's no way to get around this.

Obviously AC would prefer to be given exclusive rights so that's how I submit mine. Exclusive rights can make a difference in your article acceptance rates. This is your choice though. If you plan to use the articles for other purposes, submit them as non-exclusive, wait for them to be accepted by AC and then you can submit them to other directories. I would recommend submitting as exclusive and then rewritng the articles to submit to the directories.

If you feel like the content that's going on your sites will be accepted by AC and has all AC requirements met, then go for it. Again, there are good and bad things to take into account like I mentioned above. It's really your choice on this mate, I would experiment with it.

Let me know how it goes.

Redtide

Good deal csg,

Keep it up and fine tune your articles through testing mate.

Once you get an article that pays closer to $5, study that article and see what you did right with it. Repeat what you did with all your other articles

lturnwell · #**207** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 02:14 AM

I just purchased this guide and I can not wait to dive right in. I've been doing article marketing for the past few months, but didn't realize the income potential of AC. After reading this thread, I definitely wanted to get this book. I was able to chat with Redtide and he is extremely helpful and knowledgeable and was able to answer all of my questions. He knows his stuff and I definitely feel confident that I will be able to use his guide to make money. I will be back with a full review of the book and also update with my progress with AC.

**redtide1969** · #**208** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 03:14 AM

Emkiyu[A] · #**210** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 06:14 AM

I want to ask,

Do I need to use proxy whenever I want to create multiple account?..
Can I use one IP address to create 6 account?..
The book said that AC does not really put much attention into IP issue, but still there are any chances that we will get banned because of that right?..

**redtide1969** · #**211** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 06:17 AM

How are ya mate...did you get anymore articles accepted?

Yes Like I said in the book I would use either a proxy or an IP change to create each of the accounts. I wouldn't suggest using the same one for all six.

What the book sais is that AC doesnt automatically record your IP, but if you give them a reason to look into your account they will check it. Always play it safe and use the necessery protection...just like when you date someone you just met

Emkiyu[A] · #**213** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 06:38 AM

Ok got it, the problem is I cannot use any proxy right now at my workplace because all internet connection must go through shitty Symantec firewall and damn company proxy. But its ok, I will do it when I am home. Haha..

Emkiyu[A] · #**214** (**permalink**) 07-14-2009, 07:06 AM

Another thing to ask,

Which one is the best?, submit 10 articles with same niche or submit 10 article with different niche?..

Sorry Emkiyu I missed your post. They are both just as good...if you do 10 (or however many) in the same niche just make sure they're unique enough from each other to get accepted.

I submit articles both ways myself.

I read this guide once all the way through, then went back to the beginning and let the book guide me, step-by-step through the process. Everything you need to know to make money with this method is covered, but it is done in such a precise way that it does not confuse you. Redtide has a way with words. This is a no-nonsense-this-is-what-you-need-to-do-and-exactly-how-to-do-it-approach, no fluff! On every page is important information that should not be skipped. Suffice it to say, I am very impressed and would definitely recommend this guide to anyone interested in making real money with AC. It's incredibly newbie friendly, but there are some techniques mentioned that people already submitting articles to AC can put to use.

I've set up my accounts and I'm working on submitting my first batch of articles. Will update with progress.

Redtide, thanks for putting this ultimate tutorial together and making yourself available to answer all of our questions. You are definitely in a class of your own. Keep up the great work.

**redtide1969** · #**221** (**permalink**) 07-15-2009, 11:31 AM

You're more than welcome Iturnwell!

It's been a pleasure and awesome to get to know you. I'm looking forward to seeing how you progress!

You're already in a good spot because your writing skills are top notch heading into working on AC. I have no doubts you're going to excel with it. Again, please continue to post up with how you're doing and drop me any questions you have along the way.

Take care you!

Great thread redtide1969. Now if only there was a fiction section on AC, that I could write for, I'd be laughing all the way to the bank !

**redtide1969** · #**223** (**permalink**) 07-15-2009, 05:24 PM

Hey man thanks, actually there is in the sense that AC's partner calls need to be written in a fictional way in order to be accepted. When I do mine they are completely fictional but of course AC doesn't want them to be fictional (if you know what I mean.. ie: making up a fictional story) You may just think about claiming those at $10-$20 per. If you claim one per account and had 5 accounts you'de be in great shape.

Hi Redtide,

I read you tutorial all the way through yesterday night. Well, what can I say? Great job, Redtide. You're the man. The guide has everything that every noob has to know about selling articles online.

The most important part of your guide is CHAPTER 16. If someone having a trouble starting out, just read CHAPTER 16 over and over again. Then you'll be golden.

Thanks a lot Redtide.
