Make Money Writing For Ehow

Ehow is freelance writer website and is personally one of my favorites. Ehow works a bit different than most freelance writer sites, articles that are written for Ehow need to be written in a step by step format, showing the reader of the articles how to do something. The titles of the articles that you write also need to begin with "How to".

The amount that you get paid for your articles written for Ehow depend upon many different factors and to tell you the truth, I really don't understand it completely and neither do other writers. We all know that writers get paid as Ehow earns money through contextual advertising on your article pages but what percentage of those earnings we as writers earn are unknown. This has caused some to criticize Ehow in the past as many other sites will share with their writers the percentage of earnings that they receive from any contextual advertising. I didn't like the idea of not knowing how much exactly I would earn either when I signed up with Ehow but like I do with so many things, decided to give it a try. I wrote my first 5 articles during my first few days and the change started adding up to my surprise. I was actually able to hit the minimum $10 pay out my first month so that was kind of impressive. Since then, I have been receiving a nice monthly payment from Ehow each and every month. Some of the other freelance writing sites that let you know how much of a percentage you earn of the contextual advertising are worthless when you don't earn anything. With Ehow, the proof is in my Paypal account each and every month.

Ehow explains the earning process like this.You get paid per article. Your article's earning potential can be based on a combination of several elements, including the amount of times it's been viewed and its category. The more useful your articles are to the reader, the more money you could make. Check out our tips and guidelines, like adding photos, and eHow's most-requested topics page for How To ideas. Technically, there is no pay range per article. Simply put: The more useful your articles are to readers, the more money you could make. One good way to attract a larger audience and possibly make more money is by adding photos to your articles. Our tips and guidelines and eHow's most-requested topics page will help you get started.

The one thing I love about the Ehow pay structure is the residual income that you receive. What I mean by this is that even if you stop writing, your articles continue to earn you money month after month. For example lets say that you write 25 articles during your first two months as a member of Ehow and these articles are earning you around $50 per month. You then stop writing for whatever reason but guess what, you will still continue to earn your $50 per month. Build up enough quality articles and you can earn yourself a nice monthly income with Ehow.

To receive payments from Ehow, you must have a Paypal account. Ehow writers are paid once per month as the money is deposited straight into their PayPal account, usually around the 10th of the month. If you do not have a PayPal account, then it is best to open one up before registering with Ehow. For the time that I have written for Ehow I have never had any problem receiving my payments on time, they are very reliable when it comes to issuing payments. The minimum amount that needs to be earned by Ehow writers to receive payment is only $10. If you do not earn $10 in any given month, your earning will roll over to the following month.

After registering with Ehow and joining their Writer's Compensation Program, you will be able to start writing your articles. When you submit an article, it has to be reviewed by the Ehow staff before going live on the site. This can take as few as 10 minutes up to a couple of days. In the past, articles that were written were immediately live on the site but with all of the spam and junk that some writers were writing, Ehow had to put a stop to this. That should not be a problem at all though for anyone who is serious about their writing.
