Is Triond worth it? Is there anyone out there who is making money with them? I checked them out and they don't seem as good as Helium or Associated Content. Either of these sites pay (usually) an upfront payment. How does Triond pay? I think that it only pays if someone clicks on the google ads. And that's really sketchy. I have a website of my own which gets 300 hits a day and hardly anyone clicks on the google ads. So it doens't seem like you can make any money off triond. So my question is, has anyone out there made money? If so, how much, and how? I am really curious

I have been using Triond for about five or six months now, and I love it! I get a nice steady response from my articles that provides me with ever increasing profit. I have never failed to make more money on the current month than I made on the previous month. I am not getting rich, but I feel that the return is worth the effort. Currently I have around 50 items posted that bring in $6 or so per month. I am very happy with the payments. Triond deposits my monthly payment into my Paypal account every 15th without fail. They are constantly improving the site and adding new features that are actually helpful, not just flashy trash that you never really use. I would recommend Triond to friends and family as a way to get a nice residual income on your writing. The key to success in Triond is to constantly create new content. I try to write at least 5 or 6 new articles, poems or stories per month. Some writers submit hundreds of articles and make $100 or more per month, I have heard. In all fairness, I have never used Helium or Associated Content, so I cannot give a comparison. I hope this helps!

Cool. Such a great inspiration. I've started writing for Triond, since I miss writing so much.

Triond is actually quite good. It is free to join and you can make money submitting articles. I have heard that you get money for submitting photos and audio too but I haven't actually done that. So far I have written some articles which have a fair share of views. The more views you get the more you get paid. If you have a website great! Post links to your articles for increased readership. Write on topics which are popular, after all this is going to get more people reading. It's a nice site. So far I have only made around $3 but think of it as a long term thing, you won't make enough money overnight but if you write an article every now and then do a little promotion and get enough views it could earn you extra cash.

Yes they really do pay. You get money every time someone goes to the page where your article is located. You make 50% of the money made from one person viewing your article. So say if triond gets 10 cents for each person viewing your article, you would get 5 cents for each person. How much you get paid depends on what your article is about. I would say if you are really into writing and submit alot of articles it is worth it. It's pretty easy to get your article accepted, alot easier than Helium or Associated Content...although from what I hear, those 2 websites pay better than Triond. I have a few articles on Triond, and plan to write a few more in the future.
