When it’s time to reach payout

Every site has its own rules. Some redeem when the user has earned 5 dollars, some ten and so on. LiteracyBase expects its users to reach 10 dollars and the payout is on the 10th or later the next month. 

Some sites pay a pittance for every activity making it a struggle even to reach to that 5 dollar limit. At LiteracyBase it is slightly better although the blogs could fetch a little more.  And there are sites that do not keep to their commitment and keep on postponing to pay those meagre dollars.

I have been paid twice at Literacy Base  but it is not a nice feeling when the month is coming to an end and the payout limit is not in sight.

 Just in case the viewer of this blog gets the feeling that users depend on these earnings to fetch their daily bread, that is not the case. It is just an incentive for writers to write more. That sound that jingles in their paypal account is music to their ears.

That uneasy feeling in the stomach becomes worse for the following reasons

-The writer’s block visits you just when you need to write those few blogs to reach there. 

-The site goes through maintenance making it impossible for users to pitch in those blogs

-The site delays approving of the pending blogs 

-Your own ISP lets you down

-Your computer goes kaput

-Something urgent has cropped up in your real life that you have no time to login and finish what needs to be finished.

If one were to look at the hidden cost to get those dollars it would seem not worth the trouble. But writers do not look at those hidden costs, as they get an opportunity to vent out their urge to tell the world what they think on various issues. 

Ofcourse there  is always the next month where you can relax and reach the payout. But do you think writers  relax?  Never
