Benefits and Features

Basic Access to Statistics for yourself and Main Site Most Popular Stats

You will be able to see how many people have viewed your content on OpEd News. On your personal members page, all articles, etc. will be shown with a number representing page views.

When you log in and go to your Profile, all articles and other content will be shown with the same page-view count.

When you view the most popular pages for the site, you will see the actually numbers, not just the rankings, for all content, not just yours.
You cannot see other people's stats. You cannot see page views on the articles themselves. That's the next level option.

Commenting beyond usual time limit plus a higher character limit

Commenting on articles is cut off two weeks after the article is first published. With this benefit, you can continue to comment on any article without any time limits.

Also the limit for the number of characters in your comment is removed.

You can Turn off Ads Below the Banners

This Membership benefit allows you to choose whether or not you want to see advertisements on article pages (below the main banners at the top of the page.)

A Larger Bio Than Regular Users

Regular users are limited to a bio that contains only a few words. You will be able to create a bio which is much longer. (The bio appears on every submission you post to the website.)

Your Own Customized URL (Page Address)

As a member, you have your own members page. This page is usually located at https://www.opednews.com/authors/authorX.html where the X is your member number.

That may be difficult to remember when sharing your page address. Thus, you will have a customized page address similar to https://www.opednews.com/johndoe where 'johndoe' is a name you can choose, in your Preferences. (And change whenever you like.)

View Your Fans

Wherever your membername appears on OpEd News, such as on a comment or as the author of an article, readers may choose to "fan" you, meaning they get an email, every time you submit content.

With this benefit, you will be able to see how many people have become your fan on OpEdNews. On your personal members page, you will have a section for Fans where you can view a list of all your fans (and be able to visit their members pages).

4,000 Characters Allowed in Your Comments

You can enter double the number of characters when you enter comments.

Download Any Series

You can choose any series from the Series page and download the collection of articles in the Series into a single file on youe computer

Editing of articles allowed beyond usual time limit for 3 days

Modifying an article after publication is usually limited to 24 hours after the article is first published. With this benefit, you can continue to edit your article for 3 days.

Show Who Message is From

When you get an email notifying you that you have a message in the Message Center, normally that's all it says. With this benefit, the email says who the message is sent from.
