Not paying people does not mean they are scam. It just means they don’t have means to pay. People use adblock and expect to get paid from the internet. So sites are genuine but people need to be genuine too. Also LB, Mylot and iwriter are still there if you are trying to write on everyday basis.

There is another alternative to foap, it is with name snapwire. The site has same system like foap. And the image quality on the site is of DSLR. So you may find that it may not even worth it using with the mobile images. So with DSLR, you’d be able to sell the images across various platforms.

My adsense is still active on Hubpages. And squidoo is now owned by hubpages. And now that new sites of hubpages are doing good. I am sure many authors are making good money. For example, As for Wikinut, yes got the idea of they not much into earning these days.

I have not made more than 10$ from Mturk. But I can see for some users it’s possible than that. Also there are alternatives to use like MicroWorkers. So there are options to look forward to. I’d definitely check some of those options.

Wikinut is still there. I am not sure how much they are making. But considering there are some people who do write, I am guessing it is going to be moving. Only issue is that it’s hard to reach payout there. Also even harder to make money just by views or social media sharing.

I have it installed on my Android. The app works very fine. But the issue is I have around 100 or more Nature shots taken. And despite being quality images, I failed to find a buyer. It’s hard to make money on foap. Some people have some level of success there. But for me it is not much earning so letting it go.

I have to agree with Sarah. It’s harder to get income on Mylot than here. Considering even reaching 50 cents takes days for some. And some people on mylot can make 10$ per month without any much hard-work. Then again, many of us are in earning search so it all depends on where we find the source.

I am Hubpages member since 2009. So I have seen hubpages ups and downs. And now I can see that they are getting non google traffic. So yes, they did survived. It’s not easy to survive more than 11 years on web. They are doing it. With adblcoker it would be harder. But let’s see what happens.

I think in between swagbucks and the efforts put into Mturk. I would say a lot of people can go for the MTurk. Because it’d be easier to learn MTurk and make some small percent of money. Otherwise you know both of them are going to earn low.

Hubpages is not relying on google SEO and the adblocker. So they are working hard on so many variables. It means they are going to find better way to get traffic. Hubpages hardly gets traffic from googel anymore but they are making good money. Hubpages is using niche site to get traffic and they are also running newsletters and social media…[Read more]

I guess lot of sites are dying so the people are scattered around. So mylot, forumcoin and Literacybase have the common people around. It’s fun to have familiar faces around. That way it does not get bored. You too have a good week ahead.

Helium died way before adblocker. So I guess their exit definitely helped the owners. As you know it’s hard to make money from ads now. So it’s really a trouble to see how many sites these days are going to pay. Afterall, we can’t see sites surviving despite having adblocker.

Yes. When I have nothing to write, I usually post comment. There is a lot to discuss and comment here. But it’s hard to access new content because sidebars don’t help much for that. I wish we had some way to check new posts for more than 10 posts.

I think wages often change during the season. For example summer and holidays bring more wages to me. But rest of the year, it is not much. Also expenses pile up. And this in turn makes it harder for me to get back to normal track. Wages if saved properly can help but at some point in time we need to get a raise.

I think we get desperate because we are not sure if how much we have to save. And we are also not sure how much money we need in long term. So those type of small things do count. I think saving moderately and also enjoying the life is the key.
