Frequently asked questions

How much time does it take

As much as you want to give it. You choose your topics and the number of projects. The deadline for each paper is agreed in advance, usually 7–14 days per article, depending on the topic and length.

How and when do I get paid

In two parts: 50% within 14 days after the article goes to the client, and 50% within 7 days of the journal's acceptance letter. Payments go out every Thursday via PayPal, Payoneer or crypto.

Why do rates differ so much

Because journals differ. A Q4 or Web of Science journal accepts a solid, well-structured paper: $150–200. Q3 pays $200–300 and Q2 $250–500. Q1 has the widest range, $300–1,500: a Q1 journal in philosophy may need a well-argued essay, while a high-impact Elsevier journal needs original data and rigorous methods. The exact fee is stated in each brief, and the final amount depends on the editor's score.

Is the test project paid

Yes. Your first project is a real, paid order at the agreed fee, with the same 50/50 payment terms. Our editor scores the quality, and then we decide together on further projects.

Whose name appears on the article

You are engaged on a paid contract basis to prepare research material for a client. Co-authorship is not part of this model, so your name does not appear on the publication. All projects are confidential. In some cases, co-authorship can be discussed individually.

What if the journal rejects the article

We don't drop it. We submit it to another suitable journal, you adapt it to the new requirements, and the second 50% is paid once it is accepted. This can take longer, so please plan for it.

What if the editor sends my work back

That is a normal part of the process. The editor sends specific comments, you revise, and once the work is accepted we pay you.

How does the referral program work

You recommend a colleague using the form on this page. When they pass selection and complete their first project and the client approves it, you receive $30. The reward applies to authors who are new to us. You don't need to be one of our authors.

Логіка сторінки: англомовна сторінка для іноземних авторів під Scopus. Перший екран тепер калькулятор: кандидат обирає квартиль, кількість статей на місяць, і бачить свій потенційний дохід. На сторінку ведуть усі три розсилки.

Що змінено проти попереднього макета:
1. Калькулятор у hero замість картки з цифрами. Обраний квартиль змінює текст кнопки («Apply for Q1 projects») і передається у форму прихованим полем target_quartile. Влад одразу бачить, на який рівень і формат розраховує кандидат.
2. «How you get paid» — два етапи роботи (написання, рецензування журналом) і дві виплати по 50% між ними. Суми у жовтих блоках підтягуються з калькулятора: автор бачить, скільки отримає саме за свій квартиль. Внизу — щочетверга, способи оплати, оцінка редактора, відмова журналу.
2a. Реферальна програма: велика винагорода праворуч, ланцюжок із 3 кроків, де останній — «ви отримуєте винагороду».
3. FAQ: авторство (з PDF + опція співавторства за нижчу ставку), відмова журналу, оцінка редактора впливає на суму.
4. У «Who we are looking for» додано фільтр з Quality Rules: без ШІ, реальні джерела й дані. Детальні бали, пороги Turnitin і стоп-фактори лишаються в PDF — Влад надсилає їх після анкети.
5. Контакт: vladyslav@authors-articles.com замість заглушки.

Ставки в калькуляторі (об'єкт RATES у скрипті): Q4 / WoS $150–200, Q3 $200–300, Q2 $250–500, Q1 $300–1,500. Опцію співавторства з калькулятора прибрано: вона не стандартна, тому згадується лише у FAQ як індивідуальна.
• PDF «How It Works» досі показує $100–300 і не згадує, що перший проєкт оплачується — оновити під ці ставки.

Технічне — для Андрія / Віталіка: субдомен з noindex; UTM у листах (cold / reactivation / referral) потрапляє в приховане поле; з utm_campaign=referral форма відкривається в режимі рекомендації; форму підключити до CRM / таблиці Влада.
Ще заповнити: картка чи крипта як третій спосіб оплати; строк відповіді Влада на анкету.
