Today is just a little warning for those folks that use articles from article membership sites. Actually it’s really a rant, because it kinda ticks me off when I think about it.

I guess I was blind as a bat when I joined a certain article membership site. The deal was I paid a monthly membership and I could use any and all of the articles from the site. The price was pretty good with quite a large selection of articles, ranging in many niches.

That is until I quit.

I really never used the service as I preferred to write my own articles, just my preference.

I was in for a shock…

In the cancellation message from the membership site, it stated since I was no longer a member, I no longer had any rights to use any of the articles. This also meant any I might have used in the past.

What?

Seems like I could have been held for ransom. If I had used 100 articles and submitted them across the net, since I was no longer a member, I would have to go out and take them ALL down!

My bad for not reading the fine print before I joined. Don’t make my mistake.
