Hi all,
I was just wondering if anyone works for this site and has any comments? It's a low paying content mill, I am aware of that, but I'm interested to know whether they pay on time/are fair in their judgements etc? (I did search the forum but couldn't find anything more than a passing reference to them).

Thanks

Gem

    A quick search on Google does not return very encouraging results. :(

    I noticed that, however, a lot of the reviews I got on my search, were from a couple of years ago, I was wondering if their practices had improved, and just not been documented.

    It isn't for me, I value my writing much higher than £4 per 500 word article with 2 full rewrites! I told my friend, you can't expect much from such a low paying company, but I'm sure she will give it a go anyway!

    2 things that would put me right off -
    1. They call themselves London Brokers (and therefore look UK related), but only give a US contact number - are you going to have US/UK language difference problems.
    2. You have no way of telling who you are dealing with - no contact address and the website is registered using privacy protection to hide the owner's details.

    The website has grammatical errors and strange language usage, too. "Since four years now we have established a good reputation as content supplier" and "new writers tay tuned". They do love their exclamation marks, as well.

    It just looks a bit tacky, think I'll stick to Textbroker.
