Our article writing system works by allowing qualified writers to claim the articles theyd like to write about, and allowing for input from you, the client, during the process. Once you order, writers are able to view and claim articles they are interested in. Once an article is claimed, the writer has 2 business days to write the article, and once submitted, you have 5 business days to review them. If you need the articles to be modified, you can submit a note to the writer. Otherwise, you can approve the article and it will be marked as complete. Articles submitted and not reviewed by the client within the time frame are automatically marked as approved.
Simply login to your Client Center account, and you will be able to view all of the articles that you have ordered. Double-click on the ones you need to check up on and a screen will pop up which will allow you to view the history, status, approve articles, ask for modifications, or download completed articles.
In the client center, you can click Approve Article under content that was submitted (per article). Alternatively, you can click the checkbox next to each article and then click on the Approve Articles button at the bottom of the screen.
When you receive an email notifying you that content has been submitted, you can review it in the Client Center. If you feel that your order is not what you desire, you can request a modification. Simply click on Request Modification, fill in your comments, and expect the writer to resubmit the content piece within 2 business days.
If you need to download an article, you can do so by either double-clicking on the article you would like and clicking the Download button, or by selecting the checkbox next to the given article on the main articles screen, and clicking the Download button below.
If you need to download multiple articles at once, simply select the checkboxes next to each article you need to download on the main article writing screen. Then click Download at the bottom of the screen to receive the file.
When you login, you have free access to re-order articles at any time. You can simply click on Order Center and you will be taken through our ordering process.
You can open a support ticket at any time by visiting our Helpdesk, or by clicking open support ticket next to the order you are inquiring about.
In order to be approved for article writing, you must check the article writing checkbox within your ContentCurrent application. You must then login and read the article writing FAQ. You will then be able to view and write a test article which will allow us to assess your writing ability and English comprehension. You will receive full access to our article writing section once you are approved.
Once you are approved to be an article writer, you will be able to see available writing jobs in the "Add new jobs" section of your writer account. When you find a job that you would like to write, you can click 'Claim This Piece' next to the article and that piece will be yours for the next 48 hours. During those 48 hours, you are free to submit the work by visiting your Writer Area and clicking on the article you've claimed. You should see boxes where you can input your writing and submit it, as well as order details and order history for that particular order. After you submit, the client who ordered the articles will receive an email and will have approximately 5 business days to check your writing. If they approve it, or if 5 business days goes by without any action, the job is marked as 'Completed' and payment is released to you. If they choose to 'Modify' the writing, you will receive an email with some changes to be made, and then have five business days to re-submit the writing. Once you re-submit, the client again receives the email and the process repeats itself.
Please submit a support ticket to our Helpdesk, detailing what the issue is. We will take a look at the situation and do our best to resolve it.
You can only have 6 (subject to change) open article orders at a time, but whenever any order is 'Completed' (approved by the client) you are free to claim another piece. There is no limit on how much you write as long as it is quality.
Please submit a support ticket to our helpdesk detailing the issue and we will take care of it. Our system is still in Beta so an error may pop up from time to time.
For each article we will need you to also write what is called a Meta Description. This is the description displayed for users when people search on search engines. You will need to write a meta tag for each article so that users know what the article will be about. Meta Descriptions should be 1-2 sentences long, catchy and interesting to make people want to click on the link, focused around the article's subject matter, and descriptive enough so that the users will know what the article is about. Below is an example of a Meta Description for an article about 'Article Writing Tips':
Topic: Article Writing Tips
Meta Description: Looking for tips on how to write a good article online? Check now our tips and start writing articles that show you are an expert in the field!
Comments: Note that the most important words that are on the topic of the article [article, tips] were used twice on the Meta Description, as they are the terms the client wants to have the website ranking for. It is useful to add related words that people may also use to find the same content. In this case people can search for phrases like 'how to write a good article' or 'writing articles online', reason that these words were also used on the Description. Google has a tool [https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal] that can be helpful, as it shows how people usually search for certain keywords and topics. Also verbs as 'Check', 'Find', 'Get' etc are good call to action verbs, as they get users attention and help with the clickthrough rate on the search engines.
Below is another example for an article about 'SEO Tips':
Topic: SEO Tips
Meta Description: Find the Top SEO Tips, Tricks and Techniques with our Tutorial, and become an expert on Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
Comments: As we can see by the topic of the article, 'Tips' and 'SEO' are the most important words here. Words like 'Tricks' and 'Techniques' were also added because Google users are also searching for these words when trying to find tips related to SEO. One important thing is to include in the Meta Description is more details about what the user will find in the article. For example, if you see people are searching for words like 'Video SEO Tips', but the article does not have any tips on how to better optimize a video for SEO, do not include that word in the Description. Also, SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimization, so both ways of searching were added to the Description.
Articles assigned here at ContentCurrent are primarily dedicated to Search Engine Optimization, or SEO. The SEO articles serve two main purposes. The first is to provide interesting and relevant content to our users. The articles need to be engaging, factual, and 100% unique. The second is to have the articles written around particular subjects and include specific words (called keywords) so that it helps people find the site on search engines.
The way this will work, in order to accomplish both objectives, is to assign you either a keyword or multiple keywords and ask you to write an article that is related to those keywords. Ideally we would like you to use the keyword in the title of the article, in the first sentence of the article, and several more times. There is no specific number of times you are required to use the keyword(s), but it should be more than once within the article and you should refrain from overusing the keywords. The article should use the keywords without it seeming forced. This all has to do with the way the search engines read the page. We find that if we give our writers a specific number of times they have to be used then they are forced into the article and the flow and quality of the article suffers. I think youll find that if you are writing an article on a correlated subject matter that you will naturally use the keyword that we've given you. Most of our writers find an article topic that is related to the keyword and then write the article without even thinking of the keyword. Then they go back and check to see if they used it because we are much more concerned with the quality of writing rather than the keyword density (number of times the keyword is in the article). An example: If the keyword is Organic Food Store the article can be about anything that is related to this keyword that you think people would be interested in reading. Some examples: Organic Food Store Myths, Organic Food Stores: Overpriced?, Best Bargains at an Organic Food Store, Dont Be Fooled by the Labels in an Organic Food Store, Why I recommend shopping at Organic Food Stores, Nutritional Advantages of Shopping at an Organic Food Store, etc. It truly can be about anything that will be interesting for our users, as long as you are using the keywords and exercising quality writing skills
