Default DS Application Process

Does anyone know why you can't apply for a writer position again if you were rejected before? I applied well over 6 months ago or maybe even longer and I went to reapply with some new writing samples, but it won't let me.

I don't understand why you are not allowed to re-apply.

I am really not sure of the "whys" but I do know that there are a lot of people that did apply using another email address.

Yes. You can apply again. Just use a different email address.

You can reapply as many times as you want. You just need a new email every time.

Colly5,

What did you do differently the second time around? I ask because I was just rejected, and I would like to know what I should do differently when I reapply. Did you write for a while on another site and use that? Did you change your application? Please let me know! I am eager to start writing for DS!

Hey Colly.
Just like you, I was accepted on the second round of being one of their writers. I do like the fact that you can change to the email addy that you use often to receive payments from them which is really cool. I have 6 articles that was accepted and made me at least $75 for so far but for now, going to give another writing site a try where I hope to make a lot more than at DS>

I didn't do anything different really except I continued to write for other sites and gaining more credibility and experience. Also, I tend to write a lot in the Internet marketing niche, but I do write on other topics. I know this time around I included a few samples each on a different topic so I think that helped. Good luck on your second time around. :-)
