Why does Associated Content rejects articles? The following is one of the reason given by an Associated Content editor for rejecting an article for upfront payment:

“AC is building a unique library of online content, and this submission doesn’t differ enough in topic or breadth from existing content. Content on this topic is too common and widely available online.”

While I do understand the need to build a unique library of online content, I cannot understand why AC will still accept the same article for page view payment only. If the article is not unique enough for upfront payment, what makes the same article unique enough for page view only payments?

What to do with a rejected article?

If your article was rejected you could:

Rewrite it using a different keyword and/or keyphrases and resubmit it for upfront payment.

I had a few articles that was rejected by AC that I’ve rewritten and resubmitted. I was able to get upfront payment but sometimes the payment offer was so low that I decided it just wasn’t worth it.

Submit the article for page view only payment

Associated Content offers between $1.00 per 1000 views to $2.00 per page views depending on your “clout” level. While I do think it’s a good way to earn, I found that shopping around for a better offer is usually the best way to go.

Submit the article to a different content site

Since AC rejects articles for not being “unique” enough for their library, I it is best to try to use another online content library. I have submitted articles to sites such as Triond (50% adsense sharing revenue plus page view payments) and InfoBarrel (75% adsense sharing revenue) with much better results.

What is InfoBarrel.com?
