ehow Experiment Updates - August 2009



August was very exciting month for me. I posted an article for my ehow experiment updates of my earnings and experiences from April - July. It was very good. The income trend was increasing and even doubled. There were few top earners articles and more non-earners articles. The number of views does not mean higher earnings but at at least there are chances.

Mid of August, ehow swept away huge articles. I lost 6 articles and 2 of those are my top earners. What does it mean? I means that my earning will become steady or slow. I was expecting that my income will be doubled from the previous month but it was just only slightly higher. And the number of views was affectect. Before the sweep I got 12,500 views.

Why articles were deleted? I got an email from ehow:

"As you may have noticed, we have been making great strides to clean up the eHow article library. This ongoing process is to improve the quality of the site and ensure that we are providing the best resource to our visitors looking to learn and accomplish a task. This email has been sent to you because one or more of your articles have been removed from your account for violating eHow submission guidelines. Please find a list of all affected titles below with reasons for removal next to each of them.
- Title: How to Take Driving Road Test in Hawaii, Reason: Poorly Written - Title: How to Make an ICT Project Proposal in the Philippines, Reason: Not In How To Format - Title: How to Find and Use Western Union Money Transfer Coupon and Promotional Codes, Reason: Not In How To Format - Title: How to Upload Blogger XML Templates, Reason: OTHER - Title: How to Make a Cover Letter for Adjustment of Status (AOS), Reason: Not In How To Format - Title: How to Add Blog Headline Animator to your Email Signature, Reason: SPAM
Note: If the reason provided says "Legacy Rejections," this means that the article was moderated and deemed unsuitable during a time when reasons for removal were not marked on articles. Furthermore, if you see the word "Other" as a reason, then the article had many violations and could not be listed. eHow.com is known for its reliable online solutions and in order to protect the reputation of the site and our highly regarded community, we must ensure that everyone is adhering to the eHow submission guidelines."


I am not complaining, this is a great chance for me to make quality articles : in how to format and the instructions must start with a verb. Double check for spelling and grammar.

My goal is to make 100 articles as what majority of the forum suggested in order to earn good. The more you write the more chances of earning. Sometimes I wrote articles not just for money. I have huge articles on origami and information technology integration in education, there might not be the keywords where people search everyday but at least there are people who will benefit in this topic.

ehow Experiment Updates


ehow is a one of the best online passive income on writing how to articles. I joined last April 4, 2009 and started writing articles based on my experiences, expertise and skills. I have tried bloggings and earned around $1,200 a year from the paid blogging sites that I joined. But I was discouraged and decided to stopped paid bloggings for various reasons : my Google Page Rank became 0, my website traffic and visitors are decreasing and I am tired taking opportunities, reviews and campaigns that was not my field of interest. Some articles was made for the sake of earning more offers even if the blogger is not familiar with the advertisers' requirements. I do not want to spend time researching and reading any sources or studying the advertisers' website links just to make posts.

That is why I research for some online earnings that will make money by sharing your skills and experiences without the pressure of catching opportunities. I have tried a few but I am happy with ehow. You can read ehow community forum for more information.

Below is my income experiment. Take note how my earnings are rising from $10.66 in April and $29.24 in July with 32 articles. I will not count my August earning since today is only the 3rd.

I got an email today, one new member asked me as to how many pageviews does it take to make income, so I made this post for her and for anyone wish to know how. This is my earning as of August 3, 2009. Take note the relationship of the articles with the highest earnings and the number of views.

Conclusion:

Higher views does not always mean higher income or earnings although it makes a difference or it has greater chances.

Tips:

Evaluate your articles:
  • How many people will be searching for that kind of topic or keywords?
  • Always re - read your articles for spelling and grammar.
  • Join or read ehow community forum.
  • Make 100 articles and earn higher income per month.

Testing Yola Website Builder

I was updating my ehow and hubpages articles. Trying to think about what to do to improve my online earnings. Yes, I have read articles on this stuffs and even tried a few. At present, I have made 22 ehow and 13 hubpages articles. I was observing how these things works. When I started writing on ehow, I still meet the required at $10 earnings per month in order for them to send money in your paypal account. So far, one of my posts on How to Take Certified Nurses Aide Test from Red Cross made me $18.73 as of today's date, while the rest on earned at most $2. Other articles never earned a penny. The highest number of views does not mean you can gain more earnings although there is a great chance of earnings.

I still have a big Question in mind : Are there any effective ways to earn good money online? Of course there are! But how can we achieved it?


By the way, I came across with yola when I was reading questions in Yahoo! Answers. Someone is asking for the best website builder and Yola is the answer. So, here I am now exploring Yola. If I will like its services, I will stay here for good.


I created a website. You can too!
