Big Improvements At Demand Studios

Jun 15, 2009 Article Writing, Demand Studios

Today is a big writing day for me. Since the weekend was a “no-write”, I am punishing myself by writing as much as possible for all websites that publish my work. It is a rewarding day for them, they’ll be blessed with my “gems” of pure genius. Or something like that…

I am singing Demand Studios praises today, for all the great improvements and new features that freelance writers can benefit from. It is nice to see an article publishing website working on improvements, and offering new monetary incentives. The new, ubertastic features that I have noticed so far today are;

Fact Sheets Pay Raise at Demand Studios

It used to be that Fact Sheets at DS paid $5 flat fee. This morning, new titles are showing $7.50 flat fees, which is a nice pay bump. I am a huge Fact Sheet fan, as I can write up a 10 of these beauties quickly. DS Editors also approve Fact Sheets fast, often within hours of me submitting work for review. Never discount Fact Sheets, the pay may seem small at the start but the fast review can allow you to write up a large batch.

The fact sheets at DS can be written up quickly, as they require around 200 words.

Changes In Assignment Queue

At Demand Studios you are given a queue of 10 assignments. It means that you can have 10 working assignments at one time, and the articles have to be completed before other assignments can be added in. This used to cause complaints, because a writer could fill up their 10 assignment queue and have to wait on approvals in order to get a chance to write more.

Well, the new improvement is that articles marked as “Under Review” are pushed and space is freed up for you to claim more work. For example, I have 3 currently “Under Review” and the system is allowing me to find additional 3 assignments to fill up my active batch.

This particular change at Demand Studios is spectacular, and makes unlimited earnings at DS a true possibility. I know of several writers that are dedicated to DS, and have always wished to turn this gig into a full-time money earning opportunity. The two big changes with Fact Sheet pay raise and assignment queue should make those wishes happen.
