Wednesday's earnings post

Another .29 increase, so my total is now $6.83. Not going to change the average...

I now have 45 articles published on Triond. Since I am making barely .30/day right now with that many, it would seem reasonable that in order to make my initial goal of $1/day on Triond I would need to have 135 articles published. My article in George W. Bush is getting loads of hits, however it isn't making a lot of money, so that's something to be aware of.

Thanks for reading, the comments and for clicking on the links!

Tuesday's earnings post

My earnings today are now at $6.54, a .29 increase from yesterday. My average for the month is now: .28/day. Talk about a rut. Well, it would probably help if I would write a bit more. Hmm. Might give that a try soon.

Monday's earnings posted

My new total today is $6.25, an increase of .22 from yesterday. My average is now .28/day. I'm not making great progress on my initial goal of earning $1/day publishing with Triond, but at least the numbers are somewhat consistent in spite of the fact I haven't written much new content. I did have a new piece published today, which makes two for the last two weeks...or something like that.

Thanks for reading.
Anne

Sunday's earnings posted

My increase today was only .20, so I'm up to $6.03. That takes my average to .29/day for the past 21 days.

On the up side, I have one new article posted that I wrote yesterday on real estate investment, and I have one submitted for today on the funny sayings of George W. Bush that should go live tomorrow. Maybe those will help the numbers move upward.

Saturday's earnings post

Today's earnings update is $5.83, a .29 increase from the day prior. For the average, that comes to .29/day for the previous 20 days.

Anne

one more penny

Today's earnings is at $5.54, for an average of .29/day for the month. That isn't much and I'm not seeing any real increases. Of course, I still haven't writting anything new in nearly a week, so I shouldn't complain much.

Anne

Twenty-eight cents a day...

Here's the box scores for the past few days...

Tuesday was $4.75, Wed. was $5.02 and Thursday, today, was $5.36. My average for yesterday was .28/day and today was .28/day also. I guess that's not so bad since I haven't written anything new for nearly a week now.

However, it's still a long ways off from my initial goal of earning $1/day from Triond.
Anne

Feeling a rut

Today my earnings went from $4.54 to $4.75... a .21 cent increase. So...that's .30 average for the 16 days previous. Since I haven't been writing much this week, it'll be interesting to see if this increase amount stays steady.

Thanks for reading.
Anne

A whole twenty cents

Not a big increase from yesterday, only .20, from $4.34 to $4.54. That makes the average: .30/day for the past 15 days. Still barely a third of the way there to my initial goal of earning $1/day publishing on Triond.

I have no new articles to publish, so we'll see if the current offerings can keep the total rising or if they are flattening.

Anne

Sunday's total...

A new day, a new total. This morning my total earnings on Triond was $4.34, up .33 from yesterday. For the month (14 days prior), that averages to .31/day. I'm roughly a third of the way to my initial goal of earning $1/day on Triond.

I did get my deposit into my paypal account yesterday for last month's earnings of .68. Woo-hoo.

Anne

A second increase today...?

I checked my earnings here at 5:30 p.m. and it's up to 4.01. That's odd. It doesn't usually change during the day. That averages to .31/day. Nicer than the other. It comes to a .25 increase from yesterday. Much better.

Anne

A lowered increase for today

My increase on Triond overnight was only .17, which doesn't look good for the weekends which seem to be generally slower than weekdays. Hmm. The average now for 13 days is .30. I've make progress, but I still have a long way to go to reach my initial goal of $1/day with Triond.

Anne

Another day, a few more cents...

My total this a.m. was $3.67...so another .37. or for the 12 days prior an average of .31/day. I have a ways to get to get to my initial goal of earning $1/day publishing with Triond. At least it is increasing steadily. I didn't get anything written yesterday...too tired after starting a summer job full time. Today was less taxing, so I'm hoping to get into a grove and keep up the article counts. Right now, I'm at 41 articles published.

Thanks for reading and for the comments and clicks.
Anne

A better increase...

My increase today was .38, for a total of 3.30. That's .30 a day now for the 11 days in June. Today, however, I've done no writing. For good reason, but no new articles for Triond none the less.

More tomorrow. Maybe.
Anne

Only one piece today

Only one new article for the day to submit to Triond. Hard to write with tornado sirens going off all night. But I'm calling it a night and looking forward to seeing tomorrow's increase.

Anne

Still increasing but slowly

My jump overnight was .46, for a total of 2.92. For the 10 days of this month, that is an average of .29/day. I'm wondering how long it will take to make some bigger jumps and to get out of the 20s for the average. Hmm.

Thanks for reading.
Anne

Comments and Letters

In the past several days, I have received some really great comments attached to articles and today a good letter from a 23 year old college student on Triond who has enjoyed my financial articles. It's interesting to read the feedback and hear what people like and what the find interesting.

My views keep rising and I have four articles submitted. I'm always curious how the numbers will increase. Tomorrow may be less productive...I have to visit the eye doctor and getting the eyes dilated makes writing and surfing pretty difficult. I am also starting a summer job Thursday so that is going to really cut into my ability to write articles during the day. I'll have to be a night writer or an early riser to get anything done the rest of summer!

Thanks again for reading the blog and my articles published on Triond.
Anne

Happy over 54 cents!

My overnight jump in earnings was .54. That has helped my optimism a bit this afternoon. I have four articles pending which is much better than the one article I wrote all day yesterday. I am trying to figure out what I can write that will get me into the Hot list on Triond. That seems to be a key area in order to get a lot of views. The articles don't necessarily seem to be all that great, but they have a certain style of titles that are sensational so I'm trying to gear a few titles that way to see if I can break into that group.

Today I went back and responded to all the readers who have commented on articles.
Anne

Triond earnings updated twice today

My first check of my Triond earnings this a.m. showed a depressing increase that amounted to .23/day for the nine days so far. I was pretty discourage. Now that I've checked the site here just before lunch, however, there shows a bigger increase with a total of $2.46. That makes my average .27/day...the biggest increase yet I'm sure.

That's a relief. I was beginning to wonder if the goal of $1/day at Triond was an impossible proposition.

Thanks for reading, commenting and hitting links.

Find me with Technorati

Technorati Profile

I signed up for Technorati to generate more traffic to my articles published with Triond. I'm still figuring out all the ways to increase the amount of earnings generated.

Anne

Slow day of writing

I've only written and submitted one article today to Triond. Slow day. At first, I considered one article a day a sufficient goal, however, as the pennies increased pretty slowly the first few weeks, I realized I'd have to get a large quantity of published material to make headway toward my intial goal of $1/day at Triond. With today's total, I'm at .24/day which is a bit of a decrease due to Sunday's low volume of hits. It'll be interesting to see tomorrow's weekday jump.

I'm not sure if I'll get more articles written the rest of today. I'm happy to have one pending.

Anne

Sunday earnings are low!

My earnings after Sunday didn't jump much. I went from $1.79 to $1.92. A whopping .13 increase. Pretty dismal, but now I know that Sundays do not generate much in the way of earnings on Triond. My six pending articles were published this morning. My new count for published articles on Triond is 35.

Thanks for reading. It is taking awhile to reach my goal of $1/day on Triond, but it really seems possible.

Five Best Ways to Make Cash Online or in Real Life is Getting the Views!

Wow! My article published just yesterday on Triond, Five Best Ways to Make Cash Online or in Real Life, is already getting quite a few views in just one full day. It currently has 34 views making it my #3 for views right now. It doesn't have much in earnings since those will post tomorrow, but I expect this one will make a little jump in that regard.

I've also done some extra searching today for other ways to make money online and will be trying those out as well. I'll post any information here that becomes relevant.

Thanks for reading.
Anne

Article count: 29

My article count as of today of published articles is 29. I have four more pending so far. I am starting to think that I may need close to 100 articles to generate $1/day. Maybe these articles just need more time, but regardless, I'll keep writing and posting to see what it takes to meet the goal.

Thanks for reading, commenting and clicking.
Anne

A good day for writing

I've had the day to myself, so I've been able to churn out a lot of content this afternoon. I now have four pieces submitted and should be able to write a few more yet tonight. I'm still working on the quantity issue, keeping keywords in mind, and leaning toward topics that seem to generate the most views. I think that publishing with Triond is more about learning a system than purely writing. I'm definitely gearing my articles to the more valuable searches, not necessarily toward the topics that I find interesting. This advertising-based writing is also less about how well you write, more about the content. I'm seeing myself as a content provider, not a writer.

Thanks for reading. My views have really increased over the last three days, so I know I will eventually meet this initial goal of earning $1/day.
Anne

Earnings are posted!

My earnings for June is up to $1.79...that's .49 more than it was Friday. Not sure why there was no change yesterday, but I'll figure this system out in time. The only articles that have not generated income yet are the five new ones that published at Triond yesterday a.m., the rest all have at least .01, and the one with the most earnings has .79 this month.

Things are progressing toward the $1/day goal.

Thanks for reading, for commenting and for hitting on the links from my articles!
Anne

Earnings aren't updated today...

My queue of articles got published this morning, but earnings haven't updated all day. I'm not sure if they only update during the work week or not. My views have increased significantly from Friday so there should be an increase. I'll check it sometime tomorrow, Sunday, and see what's up.

I'll also get the new links up for the newly published articles on the various Triond sites. I didn't write anything today -- nice to take a day off and relax. I should get a few written tomorrow, however.

Thanks for reading!
Anne

Maybe done for the day...maybe

I'm about done with writing for the day. I have five articles submitted to Triond and we'll see if those all get published tomorrow or Monday. I'll get another wind tomorrow and stack up several more in the cue. I'm also looking forward to seeing how much my earnings jump from today. I've had quite a few views today on several articles. Fortunately, I don't seem to be running out of things to write about and seem to be easily inspired. That's a relief. It's also been a treat to write about things less-than-academic for a change. Maybe that's why I've been able to churn out all these pieces so easily.

Until tomorrow, happy reading!

Adsense: Sign me up!

I'm still loading up on features here and of course, that means jumping on the Adsense wagon. Fortunately, I'm an online shopper so we'll see if there's anything that interests me that pops up. This is turning out to be a fully loaded, full-featured blog.

Check out the counter!

I've added in the counter at the bottom from StatCounter. The site is great and this way I can at least see how many times I visit the blog. LOL

Daily Increases toward $1/day on Triond

In working toward the $1/day goal publishing with Triond, I want to watch how my income increases daily. My total for May was .68. I'm OK with that, it was the first month and I barely had any content published at that point (7 articles, so less than .10 for each that month).

For June, I'm looking to see if I can generate some time of report for the days...but here's what I remember:

6/2 $0.54
6/3 ?
6/4 $0.83 (.28/day)
6/5 $1.06 (.27/day)
6/6 $1.30 (.26/day)
6/7 (no new total posted)
6/8 $1.79 (.26/day)
6/9 $1.92 (.24/day)
6/10 $2.46 (.27/day)
6/11 $2.92 (.29/day)
6/12 $3.30 (.30/day)
6/13 $3.76 (.31/day)
6/14 $4.01 (.31/day)
6/15 $4.34 (.31/day)

I'll keep updating this entry each day to see how the daily amounts increase.

Quantity before Quality?

I'm trying to think of Triond strategically...

In reaching this initial goal of earning $1 per day publishing with Triond, I'm going on the game plan of quantity rather than quality. Sure, I could spend two hours on each piece and make them masters of journalistic quality with a great mix of words and suitable for publication in any number of popular magazines. However...this Internet content business, I'm gathering, is less about quality and more about driving people toward the advertising. The more articles I have published, the more avenues I have to drive people to this ad or that ad.

So...that said, I'm churning out four to five pieces a day and making them acceptable, readable and filled with keywords that I've researched quickly on one of the SEO web sites. Other than that, I'm not sure how to reach that first goal. We'll see if the strategy works.

Happy reading!
Anne

Articles are posted!

I just finished posting all of my published Triond articles. That's quite a collection! I have four more pending that were written this morning, so I should be able to get the published and posted here sometime tomorrow.

If you can read the articles and post comments I'd be interested in reading what you have to say. You can either post here at blogger or on the sites where my work is posted.

Currently, the article with the most views and most money (278 views, $1.59 for six days) is Five Ways to Make a Million. I must have gotten a ton of key words into that piece...either that, or people just like the title. Since it's only been published for six days, it'll be interesting to see how long this piece can keep generating the views.

Happy reading!
Anne

One Month and a Goal

I joined Triond May 2, 2008, to see if I could make any money publishing Internet content for others' Web sites. I'm still not convinced there's any money to be made. However, since I'm not working and just waiting around for school to start up again in the Fall, I figured I have very little to lose.

My first piece was published May 3.
http://www.socyberty.com/Relationships/Woman-Seeking-Divorce-A-Guide-to-Finding-and-Hiring-a-Divorce-Attorney-Without-Going-Crazy.118558

My second piece published the next day, May 4.
http://www.socyberty.com/Advice/Is-Divorce-in-Your-Future-Heres-What-Your-Husband-is-Planning.119024

So far, these two pieces have generated a total of .20. I'll start posting links to the articles so they are easy to find.

I've now, in just over a month, published 24 articles. My total for May wasn't much at .68, but so far for the first five days of June, I'm up to $1.30 or .26/day.

Here's my initial goal: I want to see what it takes to earn $1 a day on Triond. I'm currently uploading four to five articles a day and they are all getting accepted. I'm still learning how to use key words effectively to generate more traffic. The key to making more money with Triond is to get people to read my articles and click on the advertising links.

I'll keep posting about my progress and what I'm learning about making money online and using Triond as my publisher.
