Submissions are pending until approved by an editor. Editors may approve or deny pending submissions, verify via Copyscape API, assign a rating on a scale of 1 to 10, and add a comment. If an article is approved by an editor it will be marked as completed and the writer's account credited. The writer’s rate of pay will be based on their overall performance rating, the number of completed articles, and the ratio of approved submissions. If an article is rejected it is sent back to the writer for a second pass. If an article is rejected for a second time it will be returned to the main queue, and the writer will not be credited with payment. Writers can request a payment via paypal once they have completed a minimum of 20 approved articles. Completed articles can be categorized, branded and syndicated by the administrator. Editors may only access features of the admin panel as permitted by their access level. Access levels are set by the administrator.
