Contributors
Seeking Alpha derives its content from independent contributors that sign up to the site. Its articles are published as Premium articles, Standard articles, and Instablogs. Premium articles mean their authors are paid $10 per 1,000 page views but are not allowed to publish the content anywhere else and the articles go through a selection and editing process. Standard articles are allowed to be published elsewhere, but they also undergo a selection process and are unpaid. Instablogs are published instantly and with no pay. In 2011, Seeking Alpha is estimated to have paid its approximately 550 Premium contributors $1.2 million.
