Oh My Gosh!!! I made an extra $47.00 on Helium this month!

January 2, 2009 6:22am CST
Hello all, I just thought I would share a little something with you because it has really excited me and made me happy! Helium has changed the way that they are now paying writers so that aside from getting paid from the times that people are looking at your articles, they are paying upfront for articles that you submit depending on how many rating stars and writing stars that you have. Because of this change, I have made an extra $47 on what I normally make per month on the site and this has cheered me up no end, especially after the cash I have spent over Christmas and New Years has virtually depleted my bank accounts! I know that $47 isn't a lot of money in the grand scheme of things but for me it has been money for nothing. I wrote a lot of the articles for privaye clients as I am a freelance writer and these were the ones that were not used or not paid for and the others I wrote when I was bored waiting for my new internet to be set up so it jsut goes to show that in the end, you will reap the rewards! Please let me know if you have any luck on this site or send me a PM if you want me to send you the referral link. You don't have to sign up under me of course, but it would be nice! :) Anyway, I hope you are all enjoying the start of 2009 and please let me know how you got on with your money making schemes!

Wow congrats, that is cool. I had almost given up with Helium as I have been there for over a year and only earnt $20. My articles are months old now and do not earn anything. I have not been motivated to write there since they pay so low. But now you have inspired me to give it another shot, thanks. Wish you all the best and success in Helium. Hope you get many more payouts like this one.

Me too! It was a nice surprise. If anyone is looking for a bit of money, Helium is the way to go right now seeing as they have no amended the earning program. You do need to rate articles though and have at least one rating star!

Happy Helium New Year! That is a great start to what I'm sure will be a good earning year at Helium. I earned $25.50 from upfront payments in December. I had already requested a payment of just over $100 to be paid on January 10! Now I have already reached minimum payout for January, but I will leave this in my account and let my earnings increase daily from revenue share, and I may have some more Marketplace payments added before the end of the month. I have been paid every month since August by Helium, for my Marketplace sales and other earnings there. Now I can get upfront payments too, I am writing even more and will be getting bigger payouts each month from now on.

I'm glad to hear you are doing well! I was on the site for ages but never submitted any new work and then I thought I would have another go at it and it seemed to work so I think I might try and focus more on this site than the other sites that I use! I hope you mnage to make a lot more money as well!
