Just a quick word of warning so in case you are headed for another disappointment.. it isn't an automatic that you get Platinum status. I got moved to "Basic Plus" with a 10, then a 25 article extension. Compared to the stuff out there, I write original, quality content. Most of my articles are around 600 - 800 words. I have had 45 published, only 1 rejected..and still awaiting Platinum. If I don't get it this time around I'll be asking them for more specifics because they always just send me a generic "make sure you spell check". I'm a teacher. I know how to spell :)
Anyway, patience, patience. Keep plugging along! Good luck.

Congratulations on the acceptance of them. Sometimes I have no idea where they are coming from. i have taken to putting a line such as "follow the link at the bottom for more information" early on in article and no problems but got one rejected today with the reason being "promotion of my business in the body of the article". Another article with the same words submitted at the same time was accepted!

yup, pants back on and all 10 articles approved. ready to post more and more.

thanks a lot guys.

So there you go. Problem solved. Did you get your pants back too?

you'll be up for review for Platinum after ten...they may say submit another 25 and along the way upgrade you. It depends on how they feel you are as a author. Goodluck! Sorry to hear you get screwed a bit there..

You notice all the "&^%^%#*&^(%@&*$%&^@#$" in my blog. Well that WAS the keyword I was targeting. I've had the accidental, 4+ % KW thing happen too, and what I do is I go and try to submit it at GoArticles and GoArticles tells you which KW is above the 4% mark. Even if it wasn't a KW I was targeting.

I made a couple of edits (not to the KW and resubmitted) and surprise surprise, 3 of the 4 are now accepted. While 1 is still in review.

EZA is being a little fussy these days. One more approved article and I think I get Platinum status. (not sure how it works)

anyway, thanks again for the help.
Cheers,
Craig

That's very annoying. Something that has helped me is to put every possible keywoord that is in my article into the keyword density counter in the WA keyword tool. In a few instances, a keyword I was not targeting at all had a keyword density of 4. I just went back and eliminated some of those words until the density was 3. EZA is OK with that.

BTW... Now you are blessed

BS EZA is double talking now good eyes see it

Different editors interpret the policies differently. S/he might be talking about keywords you weren't even thinking about. Or, taking 1 word, and considering it your keyword.

For instance, it's easy to write about home mortgage refinance and have 'home mortgage refinance' and 'reverse mortgage' appear once or twice every 100 words. But it's darn hard to do the same for mortgage.
Go look through your article, make some words plural or find an -ing construction (as in mortgaging your house) and resubmit.
