I have over 100 articles on bukisa and triond and 200 plus articles on facoidz but i don't even earn 3 dollars day from them. It is such hard work writing articles but the money we get for it is just not good enough, i would expect at least 4-5$ /day for my 500 articles online .
The recent google algorithm update also has hampered my traffic drastically and it has gone down almost 30 percent and now i don't feel like working online anymore.

You should try writing for Associated Content. I like that they give upfront payment plus performance payment. I have received $3.50 upfront payment from AC for many of my articles, and they pay fairly quickly.

Hi Niitesh,
Wow!
You have written so many articles, they should fetch you more than 3 USD per day. I don't think you can earn that much on Bukisa now, since they discarded the Bukisa index. I cant say about Triond. But you must have earned well on Factoidz. But I know of an excellent website. You can republish the articles you have published elsewhere, but with same Author name. They pay 1.5 $ per 1000 page views, and if you submit all your articles here you will surely get upto 1000 page views here daily. Add me up and I will send you the link.

I also used to write articles but now i feel that our efforts are not paid well.
its better to start your own site and write articles.
if you had written 500 articles on your blog just imagine how much traffic would you get and you would get all of the earning and wouldnt have to share it with all this sites.,
anyways i also hate writing articles so i have started other ways to make money online.
Enjoy.

That is alot of writing for $3.00 a day, isn't it? I can see where you would just get sick and tired and wonder what the heck you are doing spending all that time with that small income. I know, because even tho I don't have near the number of articles you have, and only make maybe a quarter a day so far, I go back and look for articles or authors on the sites who have done extremely well.
I look for their articles telling what to do to get more views and how to get an increase in earnings and all that. After I read some of these, I am refreshed, ready to try some things I just was reminded of. Then I get excited again, because I realize it is going to take me some more trial and error and time to get where I need to do. I wish you very well.

Flagaz i have been working online for 3-4 years and have earned 500 dollars a month from slicethepie but the sites doesn't pay anymore, now for the past 2-3 months i have been concentrating only on article writing and 3 dollars for over 500 articles is very less but I expect my income to grow over time.

How was that even possible? What kind of articles do you write? You must've been working online for a long time. How much do you earn then? Maybe you need to take a break. Just to rest and refresh. :)

it is above five months sine i started writing articles online and last month itself i submitted over 200 articles on various sites. So to be honest the 200 articles i submitted last month haven't earned back much yet but i hope they will give me back at least a dollar each. So honestly speaking article writing isn't a waste of time but it requires plenty of devotion and i guess you are right i need a break.

Wow you have a lot of articles! I just started on Triond, and only have a couple of articles... I earn only a couple of cents per month, but I'm slowly building my articles, and I hope I can earn more eventually... Well, even if you won't create anymore articles, you will still earn something from those you have already submitted, so it's still a good thing.

Sometimes it can seem like it is not worth writing articles for the little bit of money that they bring in. That's when you have to decide if it is the money that motivates you or the writing itself.

Wow! that's already a lot of articles. I know how time consuming to write an article plus you just don't write in seconds. Here's my advise check for online websites that does contractual or standard per submission rate for every blog that you write. You need to get paid for all your efforts. Goodluck.

you are a workaholic,I admire you very much.My working online aims is different to yours.My aim is to improve my English.I never make money fome line,there are many crooks online and deceive people for money in china.and there is not effective law to forbid deceiving.To your complaining,let me remember a story that say:There a young man learned painting from a artist.After learning for a year,the young man paninted a picture in one day,and spent one year to sell this picture in a very low price.He was very sad and asked the artist for help.The artist told him:"If you had spent one year to paint a picture,you would been sold in one day in high price."

Niitesh.....TAKE A BREAK! That's what you need right now. Wow, where to you even get ideas about your articles? That's a lot. There are a lot of article writing jobs on sites like odesk, freelancer and the like, try to look for a better offer on those site. But first really you have to take some time off. Rest your brain and gather some strength for you to gain back your interest.

Well that is life, but pardon me for asking, do you also have work OFFLINE? since if we just rely on online work for our daily income, I guess it will always be that hard since working online takes time to see the fruits of your labor.
I don't depend on just writing articles on such sites that you have mentioned. Even if I have other sites to work for, I don't depend on my financial source on these, I need an income which is fixed and that is working in the industry.

Yes I admit it is really not easy.
Most online opportunities that pays serious money requires capital/principal from you. I think a hundred bucks is enough for a starter.
If you want to explore these opportunities that I can recommend, look at my profile.

Earning from articles is like investing into a bank. Write articles today, reap the benefits after a few months.
You already have written a lot of articles, so, I suggest you rest for a bit and work on other online money making programs next. Then, check your earnings from articles probably after 3 months.

I believe its better to work on freelancer create a good profile and start bidding first two three jobs are difficult to find after that people start trusting you.
what you neend to do is you have to be specific what kind of skills you got and try to buy the exams over there and suppose if you are an expert of graphics you can give related exam and a certificate will be shown in you profile and the guy who is offering a job will choose a person to whom he can trust and usually they trust thoese easily who have freelancer certificates.
