Ok 1st off hubpages will let you post pure junk off the bat, anyone can create a hubpage.
2nd that sample was pure junk because the English in it sucked, I wouldn't pay 1 cent for it.
Sentences such as " In the world's youngest among girls has been pregnant. " is just horrid English, the sentence does not even make sense, lacks proper grammar, is worded extremely poorly, right after reading that sentence I left the page as it was clear reading any more of that would have been a waste of seconds or minutes of my life I would never get back.
I am not trying to be mean, just honest.
That sentence would have read better as "One of the worlds youngest girls is now pregnant." or some other variation which has proper wording to get the point accross without sounding like pig latin or a drunk hobo with a 2nd grade education.
Wait wait wait, after reading the Hubpages one, I stand corrected - they ARE to the point of being funny.
But, to be nice (and fair), I will tell you specifically the sorts of things that you should be thinking about before you get someone upset by selling them stuff like this and calling it "readable". And these things, by the way, aren't even "higher level" writing points, they're basics!
1) Fluidity
2) Grammar
3) Punctuation
The articles I've read jump from point to point. When a statement is made, follow-through is important. When you are reading through your piles of articles after they've been spun, make an effort to make sure that they make a point then elaborate that point. Three random statements thrown together does not make an idea or a fluid paragraph.
"According to one local newspaper,
his family members refused to say anything about
this case But they say that they had filed a police report.
The person who had a baby at 9 years old was a girl - that would be "her" family. Bad grammar
"this case" - what's the extra space doing in there?
"case But" - where's the period?
Granted, with 1,000 articles, it's impossible to do quality control for all. But these are ones you picked out and posted, so the assumption is that you at least read
those. And if you DID read those, and they passed your quality control standards, yeah, do read over the points I made above for the next time you spin. If you don't, you'll be selling gibberish and will only be able to get away with that once before peoples' trust in your standard of quality is lost.
Edit:
By the way, someone above made a really good point - if you're going to keep them on this quality, maybe adsense would be a great move after all. Search the site for ways to get around the country ban thing. I read a technique today actually about using a service through India to get an account. People are finding success with it. Just do a search for it - "India adsense" should bring it up.
