“It has been an interesting journey, but nothing is permanent. We regret that it came to this, but all our efforts to avoid it failed. Contentmart simply cannot remain in its current form. Hence, three years later, we are closing down the service and putting this era behind us as new challenges await,” Contentmart’s email to its members read.
Starting today, the company will delete all of the client and writer information from its servers permanently. The company encourages writers and clients to exchange contact to continue their trading offline.
