As I checked my history today, I found this surprise entry:

This is such a pleasant surprise and has motivated me to be regular in writing blog posts.  I was a bit disappointed with the low rates of blog posts and had written a post about it and I had suggested some kind of reward/recognition for the bloggers. I am so happy that the admin and @support not only published the post but also implemented the suggestion to encourage the members. Yesterday also I saw a post by @kaka135 who was awarded bonus points for her hard work and dedication. This is such a positive step in the right direction. I am sure this will motivate others to be proactive on the site.

Thank you once again!

@shaloo walia great news, in my case it was 0.30 but then you write far better than me so certainly deserve more than I do. More bonus your way in near future 🙂

@ suny  Congrats for the bonus points! It’s really heartening to see the positive steps being taken by the admin for the betterment of the site.

Congrats. I too received it – 50 cents.

Wow I hope these kinds of awards will able to continue for long. Congratulations both of you @swalia and @grace

It is good to know that they implemented a bonus point system. Earlier it was very low payout for writing a blog post but now, it is a good news that it is slightly increased.

Their support is friendly and fast.

I hope that this website grows unlike some which falter in the end.

It is really great to hear about all those members who are receiving bonus awards for their quality posts.

Congrats @swalia @bestwriter

One thing that troubles me slightly is how many active members are here and can such few members sustain a site. Every day I see hardly 10-12 people here.

I also hope that this site grows and does not end belly up.

@dawnwriter

A site is made from its people. This is a mini social site. The more people use it, the better. However, if the users are less, then the probability of finding considerable active members will be definitely lesser. At least those who are active should promote it.

Websites have some % of referral commission and there is only 1 reason behind it: To tell max. part of the world about them.

We should tell more and more about it so that activity increases. This could increase their social / search engine traffic which would benefit them. This would benefit us too in the long term.

Thanks

@grace  congrats dear!

@ Grecy Garcia  thank you dear! I am sure such bonus rewards will encourage users to write more. I am glad that the site owners are taking positive steps for the betterment of the site.

@Dawnwriter  Thank you dear!

I agree that the number of members are less at the moment but I think a small number of active users who write quality content are better than hundreds of users who just spam the site. Remember Bubblews? In fact when I think what happened recently at the other writing site, I feel that may be it had something to do with opening up the new registrations. May be the site wasn’t capable of paying so much and the new users just added an extra burden…Just a thought!

@grace Nice hearing that all of us are on their list but your’s bonus is really something worth mentioning. I will go read your posts and learn a few finer points asap 🙂  

May 14, 2016 at 5:45 pm

Congratulations to everyone who received the awards! Even for those who haven’t receive the awards, it’s fine too, as this already shows that the team will reward us for contributing to the site, so just keep on contributing, and I am sure we will be rewarded. 🙂

@dawnwriter I think this site is still new, and needs us to support and help to expand it. It always takes time for a company to set up, grow and be stable as well. Isn’t it nice to be one of the first few members to help growing the site?
I do hope this site will grow and sustain for long run too.

@swalia I agree with you. I also think about that too. I mean it’s good if the site opens for more registrations, and it will help to generate more ad revenues, but the site has to be ready to do so. I agree with starting and expanding slowly according to the capability of the company.

May 14, 2016 at 5:52 pm

@ Lee Ka  Yes! The other site was wise enough to hold new registrations for long and it was doing well. But it just crumbled within a few days of opening for new registrations. Unless you are earning enough ad revenue, how will you manage to pay the members? All the factors have to be thought out before aiming for exponential growth. Though we crib at the low rates at this site but in a way, it’s good because that means the site owners will be able to honour the payments.

@swalia/

congrats on your bonus! Glad that the @admin had heard and answered your suggestion. This is an ideal way to push forward writers to write quality posts.

I am sure the rest of us will achieve this bonus too. Let us work together to make LiteracyBase a successful site!

@bestwriter/

wow, you had the highest bonus award! Congrats! You must had written a very detailed and quality content post. Hope to read more of your posts !!

@sunil/

congrats to you too for the bonus. You must have wrote a great post. Care to tell which post was it?

@thinker/

yes, good to know that this site had implemented the bonus point system. I still received 10 cents per post, never more than that. Hence, it is disheartening. Hopefully, I could achieve better payment soon.

Cheers!
