    I often write factual items.  I don’t write ‘Fake News’.   If I touch a real topic, whether the Olympics in Brasil, whether Polio in various parts of the world, whether Obamacare; I do my RESEARCH.

    If I were to write about police murders since January 2017 I would go to more than one site to be sure that the number I have is accurate.    When I p…[Read more]

    kaylar wrote a new post, Beware of Writing Factual Items! 7 years, 8 months ago

    I often write hard core researched articles.  I don’t make it up as I go along.   When I am dealing with facts, that is things that really happened, I research.  If an incident happened on the 23rd of November 19 […]

    • As long as you give attribution to the source, there is nothing wrong with it.

      I usually do that also, citing some date or statistics but I state the source or cite the persons who said it. It is not plagiarism, like what you said in your post; it is merely giving credit where credit is due. It is not owning what other people had said,or what other people had studied or researched.

      • The problem of A.I., if not properly tweaked is that it can not tell the difference between a quote and plagairism.

        Hence if I write; President Barack Obama said, when running for President of the United States, “Yes We Can,” I would be flagged for plagiarism by an A.I. checker

    • Informative article to any newcomer or even someone who has been around for a few months. It is better to write fictional work or details which cover some subject which only we know and no one else would know. But it impedes the number of choices which are available to a writer. I saw your article of Rio Olympics and also the comments as to what was written. I found the article based on facts.

      Hence I appreciated the article. That is how an article should be if it is a subject like that if it uses data from source hence forth I will make it a point to quote the source so that my article will not be called plagiarized by the checker. For someone new this article is informative provided they read and know what happens when facts are given. I am thinking as to tackle this issue. One I wrote an article in the forum. Two I am responding to this article by you. I am checking what other options are there for writers safety. Thanks for the share.

      • If I was taking the information from the NY Times, I would have admitted it, but I took the information from three different sources, and combined them. I put it in my own words, but the problem is that I could not put how much money, how long, when, and what in different words. A stadium was built in the Amazon which was a waste of money. I could not change the place, or the fact it was neglected.

        A wiser and more astute Admin would appreciate I couldn’t change those facts or put them into my own words without destroying the substance. If I had written ‘a lot of money’ instead of 12 Billion, then the plag. detector would have passed. But the article would be worthless.

    • Thank you for sharing this. I am happy to find your blog post as I just started to work on affiliate marketing and my blog too. I used to put Amazon affiliate links on my blog long time ago, but it did not work. I guess it is how I put the links. Instead of just placing it as an ad, I think I should also include it in my blog post whenever necessarily. I have also joined Ultimate Bundles lately, as I found their bundles are really good deals and I hope many people will benefit from the bundles, and I will also get to earn some commissions too. I have recently come across Zazzle and Society6, and those look good opportunities to me too.

      I will check out the rest you mentioned, and I hope I will spend more time on my blog, setting up these affiliate programs, and able to earn some commissions from them too. Hope you are doing good too!

    Try redeeming by the 25 or the 26 of every month and get the payment on the 10 of next month or at the most by 15. Do no delay redeeming till the last moment that is the last day of the month. Doing it four days earlier also gives time for the payment team to arrange for your payment.

    • Politics apart any country has a responsibility towards the good health and the welfare of its citizens. It is the responsibility of the government of the day to see that they do not damage what structure is already there. It is better if they try to improve the system which exists. That should be the ideal goal of all politicians or parties around the world. If the people of the country are not in good health it affects the economy of the country directly and causes economic loses for the country as the country will not have good quality human resource which is healthy.

      Keeping this in view it is always better to have countries which provide a strong social welfare for its people. As government is of the people, for the people and by the people. This should be arrived at irrespective of the costs involved. As if people are unwell it will reflect badly on the image of the country and if it is told that if you do not have insurance you die in a country. It reflects very adversely on the image of the country too. Happy to see that a good caring scheme for the people continues.

    1- When will i get my payment?
    You will get your payment on every 10th of the upcoming month once you redeem. For example, you redeem your reward on 22nd of February, then you will receive your payment on 10th of March.

     

    This is what it says… but not in my experience… if you redeem the 22nd of Feb you are paid in April

    Happy to know your payment is on the way. I think it is better to redeem on the 25 or 26 of every month. I am following this principle to avoid the issue which has been stated by the support and admin. Thus it gives sufficient time for those who have to make  arrangements for payments to the writers.
