Hi Alex…
This is a great opportunity.
Does all content need to be written or can we do video content also.
Thanks
Joe
Hey Joe!
I see your tool works wonders
Just seconds after blog post was published you are making comment. If you want to publish video, you will still have to submit minimum text (350 words) and include the direct URL to Youtube video or one of the other services that WordPress now supports for direct conversion. If not converted on its own – I’ll make sure it will be!
Can I submit one of my articles that I posted at my site?
Paul,
First of all – I edited your name and removed your keywords from these, so I could answer your question.
One of the requirements – Unique content. Please see guidelines above.
Hey Alex. This is great, thanks for giving your readers this opportunity. One question, I tried to submit but received a message saying “Submission limit active. Next submission opportunity is in around x hour(s).” How does this work? Do I just keep checking in to see if it is ready?
Zack´s last blog ..The Best Way to Meet a Link Partner
Thanks for heads-up Zack,
It was a limitation within the module of OIO Publisher plugin. Because all guest posts submitted under same user id – existing default limit of 1 post per 1 day was impacting anyone who attempted to submit post after the first person. As result a few people got this error. I just lifted limit to max allowed, so please try again.
Thanks Alex, just submitted it and it worked fine.

Thanks, your will be published on 3/11.
Appreciate the content!
Is this offer still available? I don’t sell anything. I just blog about webcamming. I can write a really good article on the history of web cams if anyone would be interested in that type of subject matter? I have some cool links to the oldest running cams too.
Can you get back to me and tell me if this would be something your readers would be interested in?
Thanks

Hi Alex,
For some reason my comment never showed up here. I had submitted a guest post a while ago. I haven’t had any updates about when it would be published. Did you get it?
Thanks,

Alan,
Your blog post had whole bunch of M$ Word formatting, I emailed and requested that you fix it and deleted it after it wasn’t done for a while. Unfortunately I get a few guest blog posts submissions that fail to follow simple guideline I have outlined in Guest Posting. I do my best to contact author and then delete the post if still not fixed. Time is precious.
Hi Alex,
I apologize for that. I don’t know why it would have had MS formatting when I pasted from a text file. Also, I never received your email requesting I change it. Sorry about that. I understand your time is precious, as is mine. I will re-submit the article, and hopefully it looks proper this time.
Thanks,
Alan
