what is coop?

Post by Lysis »

I feel really dumb for asking this, because I have a feeling I should know this answer, but here goes:

A customer offered a lower price for an article and said he will do coop with me? What does that mean?

Basically, he/she is planning to place the article somewhee they will be paid per view. Coop is actually co-op. Unless they're running a site that gets a few hundred thousand views a day (different people each day) it's probably not worth your time. Ask the person exactly what they have in mind. If it's only part of the ad revenues, tell them to bugger off (in a nice way).

That's what I thought, but just wanted to make sure. Thanks for replying. I remember this stuff at Elance, and yeah, I just want to get paid and move on. No co-op for me. Thanks!

(I doubt it's within the CC TOS anyway)
