how much more do you get for making AC content "exclusive"?

Do you get paid more? If so, how much?

If you don't choose to make it exclusive, will they sometimes use that as reason to reject your article?

So far, I've only posted 3 articles. But my least paid article was the only exclusive one I posted.

Your articles don't get recjected if they are not exclusive, but you do infact get paid less on the upfront payment of the article (if applicable). I've found that it's generally only $0.25 - $0.50 less for the upfront payment, so if I submitted an article as exclusive I typically get $4.75, and when I would submit that same article for non-exclusive the upfront payment can be as low as $4.20.

It all depends on what you want to do with your article, but I almost always submit mine as exclusive.

i only ask cuz i just wrote an awesome one that I want to reuse somewhere else and if it was only gonna be 50 cents less then I didn't care. But if it was like $4 exclusive of $0.50 non-exclusive, then I would leave it exclusive.

Are the links in the "references" section ********? since i know you can't put links in the body...
