Does AC still work?

I was just wanting to know if AC was still a decent source for making legit money. I was wanting to write/re-write articles and make about $150-$200 weekly. I'm a pretty good writer and I know most of the articles will get accepted for quality. What do you think? Also about how many articles a week do you think it would take. Thanks

Yeah I think AC is a decent place to make money. I write articles for that site every once in a while. I don't make a lot because I don't write a lot but I keep getting paid for the traffic that my old articles continue to get.

I really should start writing up a storm again as I've gone up in "rank" over there and now I am entitled to larger payouts.

I don't know how many articles you'd need to write but to answer your question, yes you can make money with AC as long as you promote the hell out of new articles.

If you're just starting out with them the aren't going to pay you very much in the beginning but if you stick with it you'll make money.

I don't know...
I submitted an almost unique article in AC (8% in copy scape) and it was denied

oh well the ones ive submitted werent located anywhere on copyscape. Im only looking to make $150 to $200 a week to supplement my income

Gotta be honest with you sir, If you are planning on doing this completely white hat it will be a VERY long time before you see even $50 a week. If you're keen to writing articles, you will make heaps more selling them than you will publishing them to Associated Content.

better write/re-write and sell them on dp or freelancer.com or there are many places....

really with upfront payment per article?
