@kvikram Sounds too good to be true. What's the catch here? Asking you 'cause you already have experience with them.

There's no catch. :) It's just there are a lot of webmasters looking for really high quality content and are willing to pay a high price for it. I've sold some of my articles for $30, and I've seen articles being sold for more than $50. The top writers are all making many thousands of dollars per month from constant content.

Well, the only catch is that constant content distinguishes itself from other article sites by providing really high quality content. That means your submitted articles will go through a very rigorous approval process by the editors. Your articles should generally be well-written and informative, and should have NO grammar mistakes.

A single misplaced comma or full stop will get your article rejected. Of course, as long as your article is generally well-written, you can immediately re-submit for re-approval. Approving an article generally takes a week, and re-approvals are done within a day or two.

Another thing to note is that you won't start seeing results immediately. However the thumb rule is that any article that has been accepted into the catalog will eventually be bought by some seller. For example, I didn't write a single article in May. But I got $65 in May from some articles I wrote in April.

Hope I helped. :)

@kvikram Thanks for the clarification. I've already submitted an article to them, and have already received two rejections due to improper formatting, a grammar mistake and one redundant usage of word. I've resubmitted back to them and hope that it's accepted. The fact that they curate the articles before accepting them is a plus point.

Great! In my experience they do not do the approval process for an article quite so quickly. Good luck on your constant content career. Your initiative will encourage me to get back in gear as well. :P

What was the topic of the article?

I wrote on Smartwatches as I was reading up on them since the last week. I think trying to find out out what to write about is a challenge too as there are literally thousands of topics you can write about, but you don't know exactly which you can write with confidence.

Yeah, that's true. Articles on mobile phones sell pretty well, and online business articles are good too. Both of these categories are easy to write about for us techies.

What I've found is that you cannot truly say something totally new in an article. If you're saying something in an article, probably someone else has said it somewhere else on the internet. So what we're really doing is not article writing, but article rewriting (this is different from article spinning, where you simply replace words with their synonyms, keeping the same sentence formation). By article rewriting, you say the same things but with unique sentence formations.

So, as long as you have fairly good writing skill, you should be able to form new sentences in your head. So, the next time you want to write an article, read up on a couple of articles on the topic (maybe even with the same title). Read each article only once. This way the exact sentences do not get stuck in your head, but you have a general idea of what the author is saying. Next, open up your favorite word processor, and say the exact same thing. Using your sentence formation skills, you can create a completely new article from scratch: unique content that's ready to sell. :)

You can search on Google for articles. You can also use article directories like EzineArticles.com or GoArticles.com. Instead of random results, you actually get a list of high quality, re-writable articles.

@kvikram
Thank you for sharing. Would you mind sharing a copy of your article which was approved & sold ?

You will be able to view them directly once 5 of your articles have been accepted I guess. Not sure about it though. I've submitted three articles already, 2 were rejected twice; had to resubmit them and they are at that. The other article is under review as I made sure I left no mistake, hope it doesn't get rejected too.

I think they will drop down after seeing the rate of rejections coming their way. I always thought that I wrote perfect English, but it doesn't seem so. I had to read the basics of grammar again for a whole day and restructure my article significantly to pass it. It is still under review though, don't want to disappoint myself again.
 
Great thread, have asked the wifey to keep tabs on this one.

I know what you mean, should read up the verbal material for GMAT and you will realize there are ignorant to quite a few grammatical errors.
 
@Praks You got a PM from me with the article link.

To everyone, I've been blown away by the quality of your posts on TE, so I've not doubt that you'll write really high quality articles. It only takes a little bit of practice in article writing before it becomes second nature to avoid all the common mistakes. The editors on Constant Content identify each and every mistake for you, so that you can identify each mistake and correct them.

In fact, since re-approvals are pretty quick, it's okay to submit articles with mistakes. The editors will only help you to correct the article so that you can add to the catalog of articles on Constant Content. CC only gives you 65% of the article sale price, so you can imagine that they're making big monies from this. The owner of this site is probably a multi-millionaire!

So basically, don't look at rejections as a negative thing. They are bound to happen once in a while even for the most seasoned writers. And the editors will only help you to correct the mistakes. :)

I'm not sure I understand your post. You can't view the entire article. You can only view as much as the author has put up as a preview, which should be a minimum of one-third of the article. Also, the preview appears as an image.

Is it so? I may have misunderstood that part as I am unable to view the preview yet.

I have a doubt regarding payments. They are made at the end of the month or as soon as the article is sold? Or they have an option for us to choose?

Strange. Anyone who has signed in should be able to view the preview of any article.

Payments are made every month.

Thanks for the clarification. The preview is not available unless you've 5 articles of yours accepted.

I also just received a mail confirming the acceptance of my first article. A bit satisfying now.
 
1) Become blogger according to your interest, target Indian audience , too easy since we are Indians, put some ads, let it be cpc or some affiliates.

2) Take some nice niche, being loved by indians, let it be shoe/books/online earning method, research on it, then start blogging on it, and put niche affiliate/ads/private advertisement/ pr link sell

3) bored of writing ?, get yourself an adwords/adcenter/Facebook ads account, do some research on niche which is currently going hot, let it be Ford Ecosport/ Fast Furious 7/ PS4/ Xbox one, then search affiliates/advertiser related to them, create a nice landing page, and start promoting your ads.

4) If you cant do all these, make some viral site, let it be Anji-jolie private pics/ justin beiber sux/ tips to get GF/ how to make boys fool etc etc, promote it for few weeks, one you start getting visitors, put survey sites ads to allow access to site like cpalead, mean user will have to complete one time survey in order to access the site

5) If cant go with above white-hat technique, make a fake website offering mobile charge of rs 100, if they like your facebook page + share page, and complete one survey, in this manner you will get tons of visitors + survey get completed and your earn.

moreover you can become content writer, content flipper, content re-writter, link builder, link spinner, etc Just do some research online and you get tons of ideasssss

There are lots of more technique, ideas, but my lands are too lazy to type, stopping here :P
