Production starts as soon as your payment clears. How long the work takes depends on how much you ordered and where it is published, and the report with every live link is emailed to you the moment everything is live. These are the stages from your receipt to your delivery report.
Payment confirmed: your receipt
When the payment clears, we email you a receipt. Its subject reads "Payment received: [amount] — YMI-…". It usually arrives within a minute or two. If it does not, check your spam folder, then reply to any of our emails.
If you have an account, you can follow the order under My orders.
Working to a date of your own?
Put it in your brief, or reply to your "Payment received" email with it.
Brief review
Before writing starts, we review your brief and the direction of the work. If something the work needs is missing, such as the number visitors should call, we ask you for it or leave it off. We never invent it.
Research
We plan the keywords before a word is written. An article is matched to a blog on our network that fits its topic, unless you chose to publish it on your own dedicated blog. On Pro and Ultimate, research goes deeper: we review the pages that rank for the topic and the questions searchers ask, and cite more sources.
Writing and design
A sales page is written and designed around one offer and one next step for the visitor. An article answers its question early and gets a search-friendly title and description, plus internal links. Pro and Ultimate add an FAQ section.
From brief review to the end of writing, your account shows the order as In production.
Checks
Sales pages must pass automated checks before publishing: working links and images, readable contrast, valid search markup, correct branding and a source for each factual claim. Our production team fact-checks articles against your brief and its sources. Anything that fails goes back to production, not to you. In your account this stage shows as In QA.
Publishing
We publish the work where you chose: your own domain, a subdomain we provide, or our network. A dedicated blog is set up and secured first, then its three launch articles go live.
Your delivery report
When everything is live, you get an email with the subject "Your order is delivered — YMI-…". It lists your live links and has a View your delivery report button. The report comes as a web page, the same report as a PDF, and a plain list of links. The report link does not expire.
