@Mahesh Wikinut is still there but it does not pay. They accepted anything republished and earning pennies was almost impossible even when they had reduced their payout to British Pound 2.5 from 5. I was paid 4 times total BP 10 within a span of 6 years. The site has stopped paying since 2016 with proper notification to all its members!

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.

There was a site called Wikinut.  It was a pleasant site and it paid.  Every item was moderated but not severely.   The site demanded long items… over 1k with 5 images, 5 bold words and 5 links.  Then one could get a Star.

One would be on the Star Page and likely to be read.

It was a solid site.

A lot of articles, comments, interactions, and…[Read more]

with the Bub I was paid $25 then $50 then stopped.  They didn’t pay people from the Caribbean or Africa.  As Dixit is Indian he paid a segement of Indian members, and American and British members.  He slipped up with an America who flagged him.

I earned on the other sites when they were alive.  Now it is only this one, Niume and Mylot.

@Mahesh I agree with you all but luckily I got paid from all the sites mentioned in this post. I earned almost $4500 from Bubblews, $200 or more from Tinycent, $286 so far from Niume, $70+ from Literacybase, Factoidz, Triond, Wikinut, Yahoo etc. The only site I did not earn anything is Hubpages and Squidoo but I enjoy interaction on these sites…[Read more]

Now I’m going to Talk about Triond.

This was the Best Site.   Why?

Firstly they paid you, and you would also be paid via Adsense.

Secondly, they had a number of subsites; Webmd, if you were discussing medical/heath, Notecook, if you were doing recipes, Socyberty if you were dealing with cultural/social situations, on and on, so that each sub…[Read more]

Thank You, I will… moving on to Triond

You have a point there, Mahesh but here is the secret behind Mturk, you need to have strategy in order to make some money. Like I said, once you get accepted in Mturk, go to you tube to learn how to make the most of your money in Mturk. The good thing about Mturk is that there are surveys that are quick and some pay good money.  When you think of…[Read more]

@lovern

It’s annoying indeed and I will say that this unprofessional ism will not help theme much even if they manage to earn big through other means.

Kaylar, you have started a nice job,keep it up!

I joined Hubpages about the same time as you did.  The earnings weren’t bad.  They collapsed in 2010.  After that 5c a month was pretty standard.

Why write so many words, so many images, and get so little?

And when you look at their ‘top’ stories, they are nothing I much care to read.

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.

If you Join Hubpages, you aren’t going to make much money.  The kind of stuff they publish which gets views, is as you say, niche.   If you find the niche and you are interested in that stuff… fine.  If you want to write what you want to write about, don’t expect many views.

They can’t rely on Google because they are the capital of Content Fa…[Read more]

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.
