What I don't understand about outsourcing is WHY would any write you unique articles at 1$/hour when they could just post it on AC themselves and make 3$ each??? I just don't see the point in anyone doing that, surely they have heard about AC before, themselves?

It makes sense when a freelance writer to whom the job is outsourced is a non-American who doesn't want to go through all the hassles and perils of hiding behind an illegitimate AC account, while having a steady and regular good volume of work and faster payment receipt in the process.

hah, I guess that would include me though I don't see it as much of a hassle. I guess I'm going to give this a try.
Do you ask for sample work first (original, never before posted ones?) and how good are the writers usually at a dollar per article? How much time do you have to spend touching up the grammar and spelling?

The AC method works. It'll take 6-7 days for an article to be reviewed, and about a day or two more for the payment to process. So it helps to have a constant non-stop stream of article submission.
I've haven't tried outsourcing yet, but for the time being I've been using WordFlood to rewrite articles. They'll get accepted if they're grammatically correct and make sense.

Wordflood takes me 15 mins on a rewrite. Average $2.50 a pop. 4 articles per hour = $10 a hour minus unaccepteds (haven't had any yet but I'm sure I will), so figure $9.00 an hour. 22 hours(ugh) at that rate and you've just about got your $200.
Outsourcing should be the way to go, if you've got the coin, but you've gotta factor in the potential time for rewrites.
Anyone have experience on the time it takes for outsourcing rewrites?

Turn around time is what you require. 1 day, 2 days whatever you specify.
You post the requirements and make it clear you will enforce them.
I require turn around in 24 hours, now saying that, I usually only require 5 articles a day from each of my writers.
When I post a job, I let prospective writers know if you can't work within my requirements, don't bid.
if they do, and I assign work to them, and they can't meet my requirements I end the agreement. Hence turn around time for me is 1 day.

If you dont want to outsource translate it from english>french>spanish>english (I think thats the method...just make sure to use latin based languages) and then go through it yourself like a fine comb and submit it. I did it and got paid for it.
Did you choose to be paid by performance? They give you two options when you submit your article. But usually they pay at the end of the week or something, not sure. Your payment is probably pending.
