It's very depressing when money is not enough. Mountains of bills to be paid. Does anyone know where else we can make extra money online? Know any other PTC?

I ignore all the get rich quick scams and they are. I make money at conent sites like Helium.com and Associatedcontent.com as a writer. I don't get rich but I do pay some bills with money made online.

How does Helium.com work? I went to take a look and I still cannot figure out how it works. Can you tell me, since it seems a lucrative way to make money? Thanks!

Helium more or less offers you things to write about. If your version of the topic gets voted up then you make more money, I think. I am much more of an AC guy.

I submit articles to Associated Content and Constant Content, and do well with both of them. AC accepts submissions for their own publications. They will pay upfront for some articles but you can submit for free just for the page view bonus. Constant Content accepts submissions and sells them to third-party customers who need content for their own blogs, web sites and newsletters. With CC you can set your own price, but may have to wait until the article sells. I make more money through CC, and I highly recommend them. There should be a link on my profile.

I agree with selling writing on CC - you can charge quite decent amounts for your articles there - but I strongly disagree with revenue-share sites like AC. Too many really talented writers are wasting their skills on low-paying sites like this that it's a shame. They could be earning much better money elsewhere.

Hi all... just passing thru and was wondering if either of you two are still active and interested in sharing any experience of recent interaction with CC? I seem to be having difficulties searching it online. I am VERY interested in this kind of work and would love to get involved. Thanks for your time.

I chanced on this discussion and I am also quite interested in finding out about more websites where I can earn money. I have not been very successful in earning money online. I have posted a discussion on this topic. Any suggestions or recommendations? Thanks.
