I suppose it would be no different than Guru. For instance with Guru they takea small percentage of your earnings and you've paid a fee upfront (but you manage your business through their forum if you will, so you are getting some extra services there for that fee).<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

SoI guess I'd question whatpercentage they makeoff the top. Is it consistant, a certain percentage making the process fair to the writers?If I've paid them a monthly fee of $10 and their cut is outrageous, lets say for arguments sake more than 10%or all over the place based on the charge to the client that wouldn't seem right. I also notice they offer specials to clients who buy in bulk which must really drive the price down in some instances; which might be the case with the $23for 2000 word article.
I'm fearful to pay $10 every month and then find there is just a free-for-all everytime a topic is posted and if you aren't quick you're stuck writing what you don't know and we've all heard it before; write what you know it is less research. I think the service would be okay if there wasn't a monthly fee as I can't tell what they are actually doing for the $10 outside of letting you in to select jobs. I've done that without paying and it didn't work. I might expect more for the $10, like Jonsey says; someone assigning jobs or something. Considering their client charges if I take a job with them writing a 1000 article for less than $20 after their cut; it almost turns out to be the $3 an article scenario when you break it down. Plus they are only looking for writers to help fulfil this need. What happens when this job is over?
Their web page wasn't helpful; no info whatsoever for writers there. Are we locked in for a year if we tried out the site? Or is it month to month? What are the administrative fees? I'm sure they pay, and provide jobs, however there are too many unknowns. Most of these sites tell you upfront on their site how it is going to work.
