Writing for Dollars -- NEW Sept. 2014

It is now fall  in the year 2014 and I have to say - there are MANY changes in the world of writing.

Number one change is that my favorite site, SQUIDOO, has been taken over by HubPages and it is so much work to get all my sales lenses changed into acceptable HUBs. No more three figure paydays from both Squidoo and Amazon with a bit of eBay thrown in the mix. I enjoyed making the money from writing my sales lenses but I think that HubPages will be acceptable once I learn all the ins and outs of the site. HbPages uses Google Adsense which I like very much and I am very glad that I had applied and been accepted long ago.  If you are planning to write, get going and be creative because you need something to show google adsense to be accepted into there program. A good place to start is Blogger, thisis very acceptable to Google Adsense and it is how I got accepted into their advertising program. So, my best advice for today is--START BLOGGING!

OK - I went away on vacation and came back to a nice payday! This payday I made (for August 2012) : Cash total paid via PayPal: $275.92 I feel good about that but my summer lenses are over and now I must concentrate of Christmas lenses and holiday shopping lenses -- I'm sure every topic is covered a zillion times over but I will try to come in with a new angle :>(

Still no pay today although I think they are working on it. No updates to daily traffic for hours and hours usually means pay is coming (at least in the first 10 days of the month) Why don't you give SQUIDOO a try. Really, if I can make money doing what I love (writing), so can you!

Tell Me The Truth!

Thought I would add one of my sales lenses for you to see -- this one seems to be ready to take off so I'm hoping it's a money maker! 2012 Hottest Trends in Women's Lingerie Hopefully this will bring in some earnings! What do you think?

I am waiting patiently for the next payday - I now have 53 lenses written but only a few will have earnings to be happy about. On Squidoo, you need to get into the top 2000 lenses to make the good money. Considering there are hundreds of thousands written I feel a real accomplishment in having one of my lenses a Tier ONE lens all summer!-- One of the best ways to earn money on Squidoo is sales. I do as many sales lenses as I can and make some decent money that way. I have also opened an Amazon Affiliate ID which is paying me around $30 a month right now. Since I just started working that, I feel good about $30! I read on the boards at Amazon that there are MANY making a whole lot more and I am going to work on that--I'll let you know how it goes. OK-payday will be soon and I'll post my results as soon as I get them :>)

I'm Back :>)

Ok - I know I haven't been here for awhile but now I'm Back and ready for action! And-guess what-I'm starting to make some money writing on on Squidoo! --------------------------------------------------------- Squidoo Payday: August 2012‏ for Squidoo cash royalties that your lenses earned through June 2012 Squidoo LLC sent you $211.28 USD Squidoo Payday: September 2012 for Squidoo cash royalties that your lenses earned through July 2012 Squidoo LLC sent you $333.83 USD‏ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My lenses (articles) total is 47! Can you imagine if I had 470 lenses like some of the folks who have been doing this a long time - wow. There's money to be made folks. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok - I have not posted for awhile because there has been so much going on! I have written over 35 lenses and have started seeing my sales zoom on my summer lenses (I guess since it is now May) I still have not gotten paid anything worthwhile but I am hoping the payments will start coming in this month or next. I,m really excited to see what my payments will be as one of the items sold was some running shoes that were around $100. In the meantime, some of my better earners are here:
