Somebody hid the wonder wheel

My story has been repeated a hundred times this week,by other niche bloggers- but if you’re not reading them,you might not have known. It starts like this-

I’m building a niche site (first new one in 2010)

I need to choose my categories. I want them related. I want google to see me [...]

Complete loss of credibility

I’m weird,I know it. I’m not a consumer. I don’t spend my weekends at the mall. In fact,the only time I go to the mall is when my teenagers are there hanging out with their friends. Sometimes we trick-or-treat there,but not every year. I hate it. I hate the smell of plastic. [...]

Writing for Bukisa,One year anniversary

If you haven’t heard of Bukisa as a writing site,it’s probably because it’s not taken very seriously as a source of income.  The site pays on a monthly $/1000 which changes,based on the previous month’s earnings for the entire site. Consequently,crappy articles are paid at the same rate as good articles,and [...]

Textbroker…nevermind

I haven’t been over to textbroker for a while.  There are a few reasons.

#1- I’ve faxed in my w9  and  apparently they didn’t get it. Even though the fax machine said the transmission succeeded and all the other documents I sent that day,to several other companies were received just fine.  I don’t have [...]

When Eve originally informed me of their decision,I sent a response,stating my side of the story.  I sent a note [...]

Your Free Work Number

Are you like me- do you HATE the idea of having your home phone number online for everyone to have access to,but you understand some of your clients might prefer to communicate via phone. They hire YOU to be their internet person because they don’t enjoy it. So like it or not,sometimes we [...]

I was referred to the site through Shanna Banana at wahm.com and she’s done pretty well with the site. You need to get to $50 for the payment threshold. I made 41 [...]

In Defense of Schizophrenia in the Online Workplace

So- I found a great website about working at home.  The articles were informative,relevant and interesting.  I decided to follow the site’s owner on twitter,because there was an icon in the sidebar.

Once I saw her twitter homepage,though,I changed my mind.

Her twitterstream was filled with horrific news stories,not helpful [...]

How to find new writing sites before anyone else

There are new websites offering opportunities for writers every day. It starts like a wave. One website is formed on the message boards of another website. Discontented or financially inspired contributors (or designers or editors) from one website decide to jump in and create their own. It’s happening a lot right now. Some sites will [...]
